- Use the compare nesting level and in-progress dictionary properly in
PyObject_RichCompare().
- Change the in-progress code to use static variables instead of
globals (both the nesting level and the key for the thread dict were
globals but have no reason to be globals; the key can even be a
function-static variable in get_inprogress_dict()).
- Rewrote try_rich_to_3way_compare() to benefit from the similarity of
the three cases, making it table-driven.
- In try_rich_to_3way_compare(), test for EQ before LT and GT. This
turns out essential when comparing recursive UserList instances;
with the old code, these would recurse into rich comparison three
times for each nesting level up to NESTING_LIMIT/2, making the total
number of calls in the order of 3**(NESTING_LIMIT/2)!
NOTE: I'm not 100% comfortable with this. It works for the standard
test suite (which compares a few trivial recursive data structures
only), but I'm not sure that the in-progress dictionary is used
properly by the rich comparison code. Jeremy suggested that maybe the
operation should be included in the dict. Currently I presume that
objects in the dict are equal unless proven otherwise, and I set the
outcome for the rich comparison accordingly: true for operators EQ,
LE, GE, and false for the other three. But Jeremy seems to think that
there may be counter-examples where this doesn't do the right thing.
except that it always returns Unicode objects.
A new C API PyObject_Unicode() is also provided.
This closes patch #101664.

- Got rid of instance_cmp(); refactored instance_compare().
- Added instance_richcompare() which calls __lt__() etc.
Some unrelated stuff mixed in:
- Aligned comments in various large struct initializers.
- Better test to avoid recursion if __coerce__ returns self as the
first argument (this is an unrelated fix by Neil Schemenauer!).
- Style nit: don't use Py_DECREF(Py_NotImplemented); use
Py_DECREF(result) -- it just looks better. :-)
PyObject_RichCompare() and PyObject_RichCompareBool().
XXX Note: the code that checks for deeply nested rich comparisons is
bogus -- it assumes the two objects are always identical, rather than
using the same logic as PyObject_Compare(). I'll fix that later.
simpler if we use fgetpos and fsetpos, rather than trying to mess with
platform-specific TELL64 alternatives.
Of course, this hasn't been tested on a 64-bit platform, so I may have
to withdraw this -- but I'm hopeful, and Trent Mick supports this
patch!
in case the parameters are out of bounds and fixes error handling
for .count(), .startswith() and .endswith() for the case of
mixed string/Unicode objects.
This patch adds Python style index semantics to PyUnicode_Count()
indices (including the special handling of negative indices).
The patch is an extended version of patch #103249 submitted
by Michael Hudson (mwh) on SF. It also includes new test cases.
Closes SF patch #103123.
funcobject.h:
PyFunctionObject: add the func_dict slot.
funcobject.c:
PyFunction_New(): Initialize the func_dict slot to NULL.
func_getattr(): Rename to func_getattro() and change the
signature. It's more efficient to use attro methods and dig the C
string out than it is to re-convert a C string to a PyString.
Also, add support for getting the __dict__ (a.k.a. func_dict)
attribute, and for getting an arbitrary function attribute.
func_setattr(): Rename to func_setattro() and change the signature
for the same reason. Also add support for setting __dict__
(a.k.a. func_dict) and any arbitrary function attribute.
func_dealloc(): Be sure to DECREF the func_dict slot.
func_traverse(): Be sure to traverse func_dict too.
PyFunction_Type: make the necessary func_?etattro() changes.
classobject.c:
instancemethod_memberlist: Add __dict__
instancemethod_setattro(): New method to set arbitrary attributes
on methods (really the underlying im_func). Raise TypeError when
the instance is bound or when you're trying to set one of the
reserved im_* attributes.
instancemethod_getattr(): Renamed to instancemethod_getattro()
since that's what it really is. Also, added support fo getting
arbitrary attributes through the im_func.
PyMethod_Type: Do the ?etattr{,o} dance.
object.
This fixes potential overflows in xrange()'s internal calculations on
64-bit platforms. The fix is complicated because the sq_length slot
function can only return an int; we want to support
xrange(sys.maxint), which is a 64-bit quantity on most 64-bit
platforms (except Win64). The solution is hacky but the best
possible: when the range is that long, we can use it in a for loop but
we can't ask for its length (nor can we actually iterate beyond
2**31-1, because the sq_item slot function has the same restrictions
on its arguments. Fixing those restrictions is a project for another
day...
faster than the other. Should be faster for Mark Favas's 254-character
mail log lines, and *is* 3-4% quicker for my test case with much shorter
lines (but they're typical of *my* text files, and I'm tired of optimizing
for everyone else at my expense <wink> -- in fact, the only one who loses
here is Guido ...).
Tim discovered another "bug" in my get_line() code: while the comments
said that n<0 was invalid, it was in fact still called with n<0 (when
PyFile_GetLine() was called with n<0). In that case fortunately
executed the same code as for n==0.
Changed the comment to admit this fact, and changed Tim's MS speed
hack code to use 'n <= 0' as the criteria for the speed hack.
code duplication is to let us get away without a realloc whenever possible;
boosted the init buf size (the cutoff at which we *can* get away without
a realloc) from 100 to 200 so that more files can enjoy this boost; and
allowed other threads to run in all cases. The last two cost something,
but not significantly: in my fat test case, less than a 1% slowdown total.
Since my test case has a great many short lines, that's probably the worst
slowdown, too. While the logic barely changed, there were lots of edits.
This also gets rid of the reference to fp->_cnt, so the last platform
assumption being made here is that fgets doesn't overwrite bytes
capriciously (== beyond the terminating null byte it must write).
variant that never needs to "search from the right".
Also fixed unlikely memory leak in get_line, if string size overflows INTMAX.
Also new std test test_bufio to make sure .readline() works.
realized that this behavior is already present in PyFile_GetLine(),
which is the only place that needs it. A little refactoring of that
function made get_line_raw() redundant.
The mapping dictionaries can now contain 1-n mappings, meaning
that character ordinals may be mapped to strings or Unicode object,
e.g. 0x0078 ('x') -> u"abc", causing the ordinal to be replaced by
the complete string or Unicode object instead of just one character.
Another feature introduced by the patch is that of mapping oridnals to
the emtpy string. This allows removing characters.
The patch is different from patch #103100 in that it does not cause a
performance hit for the normal use case of 1-1 mappings.

- The raw_input() functionality is moved to a separate function.
- Drop GNU getline() in favor of getc_unlocked(), which exists on more
platforms (and is even a tad faster on my system).
codec to not apply Latin-1 mappings for keys which are not found
in the mapping dictionaries, but instead treat them as undefined
mappings.
The patch was originally written by Martin v. Loewis with some
additional (cosmetic) changes and an updated test script
by Marc-Andre Lemburg.
The standard codecs were recreated from the most current files
available at the Unicode.org site using the Tools/scripts/gencodec.py
tool.
This patch closes the bugs #116285 and #119960.
