SF patch #461781 by Chris Lawrence: os.path.realpath - Resolve symlinks:
...
Once upon a time, I put together a little function
that tries to find the canonical filename for a given
pathname on POSIX. I've finally gotten around to
turning it into a proper patch with documentation.
On non-POSIX, I made it an alias for 'abspath', as
that's the behavior on POSIX when no symlinks are
encountered in the path.
Example:
>>> os.path.realpath('/usr/bin/X11/X')
'/usr/X11R6/bin/X'

SF patch #461413 (Gerhard Häring): Add STARTTLS feature to smtplib

This patch adds the features from RFC 2487 (Secure SMTP
over TLS) to the smtplib module:

- Wrapper classes that simulate enough of sockets and
files for smtplib, but really wrap a SSLObject
- reset the list of known SMTP extensions at each call
of ehlo(). This should have been the case anyway.

Turns out Neil didn't intend for *all* of his gen-branch work to get
...
committed.
tokenize.py: I like these changes, and have tested them extensively
without even realizing it, so I just updated the docstring and the docs.
tabnanny.py: Also liked this, but did a little code fiddling. I should
really rewrite this to *exploit* generators, but that's near the bottom
of my effort/benefit scale so doubt I'll get to it anytime soon (it
would be most useful as a non-trivial example of ideal use of generators;
but test_generators.py has already grown plenty of food-for-thought
examples).
inspect.py: I'm sure Ping intended for this to continue running even
under 1.5.2, so I reverted this to the last pre-gen-branch version. The
"bugfix" I checked in in-between was actually repairing a bug *introduced*
by the conversion to generators, so it's OK that the reverted version
doesn't reflect that checkin.

longobject.c _PyLong_AsByteArray: The original code had a gross bug:
the most-significant Python digit doesn't necessarily have SHIFT
significant bits, and you really need to count how many copies of the sign
bit it has else spurious overflow errors result.
test_struct.py: This now does exhaustive std q/Q testing at, and on both

7b9542a3f7
Initial support for 'q' and 'Q' struct format codes: for now, only in
...
native mode, and only when config #defines HAVE_LONG_LONG. Standard mode
will eventually treat them as 8-byte ints across all platforms, but that
likely requires a new set of routines in longobject.c first (while
sizeof(long) >= 4 is guaranteed by C, there's nothing in C we can rely
on x-platform to hold 8 bytes of int, so we'll have to roll our own;
I'm thinking of a simple pair of conversion functions, Python long
to/from sized vector of unsigned bytes; that may be useful for GMP
conversions too; std q/Q would call them with size fixed at 8).
test_struct.py: In addition to adding some native-mode 'q' and 'Q' tests,
got rid of unused code, and repaired a non-portable assumption about
native sizeof(short) (it isn't 2 on some Cray boxes).
libstruct.tex: In addition to adding a bit of 'q'/'Q' docs (more needed
later), removed an erroneous footnote about 'I' behavior.

e9719fe1a7
Fix bug in smtplib example: the prompt said to end the message with ^D,
...
but doing so raised EOFError. This makes it work as advertised and
converts to string methods where reasonable.
This closes SF bug #424776 .

Implement, test and document "key in dict" and "key not in dict".
...
I know some people don't like this -- if it's really controversial,
I'll take it out again. (If it's only Alex Martelli who doesn't like
it, that doesn't count as "real controversial" though. :-)
That's why this is a separate checkin from the iterators stuff I'm
about to check in next.
2001-04-20 16:50:40 +00:00
1aec3a16f3
Add versioning notes: many of the signatures changed to allow the time
