- All constructors grow an optional argument `factory' which is a
callable used when new message instances are created by the next()
methods. Defaults to the rfc822.Message class.
- A new subclass of UnixMailbox is added, called PortableUnixMailbox.
It's identical to UnixMailbox, but uses a more portable test for
From_ delimiter lines. With PortableUnixMailbox, any line that
starts with "From " is considered a delimiter (this should really
check for two newlines before the F, but it doesn't.
This involves changing the zlib build process to build zlib itself from sources, then use that library. Also updated are the comments to reflect the new official home of zlib, and add Windows specific notes regarding the build process.
"Partial" as the code uses sys.prefix in an attempt to locate 'w9xpopen.exe', but sys.prefix is not set if Python can't find it itself. So this _still_ fails in Pythonwin, but I am committing the patch for 2 reasons:
* Embedded apps that set sys.prefix or use PYTHONHOME will work
* The exception raised on failure to find the executable is far more obvious
reference manual but not checked: Names bound by import statemants may
not occur in global statements in the same scope. The from ... import *
form may only occur in a module scope.
I guess these changes could break code, but the reference manual
warned about them.
Several other small changes
If a variable is declared global in the nearest enclosing scope of a
free variable, then treat it is a global in the nested scope too.
Get rid of com_mangle and symtable_mangle functions and call mangle
directly.
If errors occur during symtable table creation, return -1 from
symtable_build().
Do not increment st_errors in assignment to lambda, because exception
is not set.
Add extra argument to symtable_assign(); the argument, flag, is ORed
with DEF_LOCAL for each symtable_add_def() call.
This change eliminates an extra malloc/free when a frame with free
variables is created. Any cell vars or free vars are stored in
f_localsplus after the locals and before the stack.
eval_code2() fills in the appropriate values after handling
initialization of locals.
To track the size the frame has an f_size member that tracks the total
size of f_localsplus. It used to be implicitly f_nlocals + f_stacksize.
* Removed func_hash and func_compare, so they can be treated as immutable
content-less objects (address hash and comparison)
* Added tests to that affect to test_funcattrs (also testing func_code
is writable)
* Reverse meaning of tests in test_opcodes which checked identical code
gets identical functions
