return the error message produced by importlib, so that if an import
in the package whose import is being wrapped is what failed the skip
message will contain the name of that module instead of the name of the
wrapped module. Also fixed formatting of some previous comments.
tuples, dicts and sets on failure.
Many new handy type and comparison specific assert* methods have been added
that fail with error messages actually useful for debugging. Contributed in
by Google and completed with help from mfoord and GvR at PyCon 2009 sprints.
Discussion lives in http://bugs.python.org/issue2578.
Re http://bugs.python.org/issue4315
The symbol table used the same name dictionaries to recursively
analyze each of its child blocks, even though the dictionaries are
modified during analysis. The fix is to create new temporary
dictionaries via the analyze_child_block(). The only information that
needs to propagate back up is the names of the free variables.
Add more comments and break out a helper function. This code doesn't
get any easier to understand when you only look at it once a year.
tests that expect to be skipped if imports fail or functions don't
exist to use import_function and import_module. The ultimate goal is
to change regrtest to not skip automatically on ImportError. Checking
in now to make sure the buldbots don't show any errors on platforms
I can't direct test on.
This adds a --randseed option, and makes regrtest.py -r indicate what random seed it's using so that that value can later be fed back to --randseed. This option is useful for tracking down test order-related issues found by make buildbottest, for example.
to return different information than the _sys_version() output
used in previous Python versions.
This also fixes issue5561: platform.python_version_tuple returns tuple of ints, should be strings
Added more tests for the various platform functions.
untrackable objects are not tracked by the garbage collector. This can
reduce the size of collections and therefore the garbage collection overhead
on long-running programs, depending on their particular use of datatypes.
(trivia: this makes the "binary_trees" benchmark from the Computer Language
Shootout 40% faster)
forever on incomplete input. That caused tarfile.open() to hang when used
with mode 'r' or 'r:bz2' and a fileobj argument that contained no data or
partial bzip2 compressed data.
