email package's Parser to handle the three common line endings.
Certain protocols such as IMAP define CRLF line endings and it doesn't
make sense for the client app to have to normalize the line endings
before handing it message off to the Parser.
_parsebody(): Be more flexible in the matching of line endings for
finding the MIME separators. Accept any of \r, \n and \r\n. Note
that we do /not/ change the line endings in the payloads, we just
accept any of those three around MIME boundaries.
single byte character sets. Also fixed a semantic problem with the
constructor's default arguments. Specifically,
__init__(): Change the maxlinelen argument default to None instead of
MAXLINELEN. The semantics should have been (and now are) that if
maxlinelen is given it is always honored. If it isn't given, but
header_name is given, then the maximum line length is calculated. If
neither are given then the default 76 characters is used.
_split(): If the character set is a single byte character set then we
can split the line at the maxlinelen because we know that encoding the
header won't increase its length. If the charset isn't a single byte
charset then we use the quicker divide-and-conquer line splitting
algorithm as before.
for the email package. The former is now just a shell project that
has some extra files for packaging for independent use (e.g. setup.py
and README).
Added a compatibility layer so that the same API can be used in Python
2.1 and 2.2/2.3 with the major differences shuffled off into helper
modules (_compat21.py and _compat22.py).
Also bumped the package version number to 2.0.3 for some fixes to be
checked in momentarily.
Scot Stevenson. Could be a bug fix candidate, but probably doesn't
matter much unless a certain blue-nosed cat suddenly becomes corporeal
and starts emailing some stmp.py (sic) fronted mailer.
returned a proxy for __class__ whose __bases__ was also a proxy. The
merge_class_dict() helper for dir() assumed incorrectly that __bases__
would always be a tuple and used the in-line tuple API on the proxy.
I will backport this to 2.2 as well.
test if 'callable' has not been supplied is to test for None instead of
False. The previous correction to 'if callable()' was wrong because an unusable
callback would be ignored rather than raising an exception.
and the .seed() and .whseed() methods failed to reset it. In other
words, setting the seed didn't completely determine the sequence of
results produced by random.gauss(). It does now. Programs repeatedly
mixing calls to a seed method with calls to gauss() may see different
results now.
Bugfix candidate (random.gauss() has always been broken in this way),
despite that it may change results.
This now does a dynamic analysis of which elements are so frequently
repeated as to constitute noise. The primary benefit is an enormous
speedup in find_longest_match, as the innermost loop can have factors
of 100s less potential matches to worry about, in cases where the
sequences have many duplicate elements. In effect, this zooms in on
sequences of non-ubiquitous elements now.
While I like what I've seen of the effects so far, I still consider
this experimental. Please give it a try!
On Win2K it thought 'foo' started at byte offset 0 instead of at the
pagesize, and on Win98 it thought 'foo' didn't exist at all. Somehow
or other this is related to the new "in memory file" gimmicks in
bsddb, but the old bsddb we use on Windows sucks so bad anyway I don't
want to bother digging deeper. Flushing the file in test_mmap after
writing to it makes the problem go away, so good enough.
build's "undetected error" problems were originally detected with
extension types, but we can whitebox test the same situations with
new-style classes.
