Fixed a half dozen ways in which general dict comparison could crash
Python (even cause Win98SE to reboot) in the presence of kay and/or
value comparison routines that mutate the dict during dict comparison.
Bugfix candidate.
NEEDS DOC CHANGES.
This one surprised me! While I expected tuple() to be a no-brainer, turns
out it's actually dripping with consequences:
1. It will *allow* the popular PySequence_Fast() to work with any iterable
object (code for that not yet checked in, but should be trivial).
2. It caused two std tests to fail. This because some places used
PyTuple_Sequence() (the C spelling of tuple()) as an indirect way to test
whether something *is* a sequence. But tuple() code only looked for the
existence of sq->item to determine that, and e.g. an instance passed
that test whether or not it supported the other operations tuple()
needed (e.g., __len__). So some things the tests *expected* to fail
with an AttributeError now fail with a TypeError instead. This looks
like an improvement to me; e.g., test_coercion used to produce 559
TypeErrors and 2 AttributeErrors, and now they're all TypeErrors. The
error details are more informative too, because the places calling this
were *looking* for TypeErrors in order to replace the generic tuple()
"not a sequence" msg with their own more specific text, and
AttributeErrors snuck by that.
The new test case demonstrates the bug. Be more careful in
symtable_resolve_free() to add a var to cells or frees only if it
won't be added under some other rule.
XXX Add new assertion that will catch this bug.
of ParserCreate().
Added assignment tests for the ordered_attributes and specified_attributes
values, similar to the checks for the returns_unicode attribute.
The changes cause compilation failures in any file in the Python
installation lib directory to cause the install to fail. It looks
like compileall.py intended to behave this way, but a change to
py_compile.py and a separate bug defeated it.
Fixes SF bug #412436
This change affects the test suite, which contains several files that
contain intentional errors. The solution is to extend compileall.py
with the ability to skip compilation of selected files.
In the test suite, rename nocaret.py and test_future[3..7].py to start
with badsyntax_nocaret.py and badsyntax_future[3..7].py. Update the
makefile to skip compilation of these files. Update the tests to use
the name names for imports.
NB compileall.py is changed so that compile_dir() returns success only
if all recursive calls to compile_dir() also check success.
fixes bug #414940, and redoes the fix for #129417 in a different way.
It also fixes a number of other problems with locale-specific formatting:
If there is leading or trailing spaces, then no grouping should be applied
in the spaces, and the total length of the string should not be changed
due to grouping.
Also added test case which works only if the en_US locale is available.
This makes verbose-mode output easier to dig thru, and removes an accidental
dependence on the order of dict.items() (made visible by recent changes to
dictobject.c).
of another list comp. This caused crashes reported as SF bugs 409230
and 407800.
Note that the new tests are in a function so that the name lookup code
isn't affected by how many *other* list comprehensions are in the same
scope.
GNOME-style internationalized options can be parsed using ConfigParser
(SF bug #131635).
Converted the tests to use test_support.verify() instead of output
comparison to work.
Guido told me to do this <wink>.
Greatly expanded docstrings, and fleshed out with examples.
New std test.
Added new get_close_matches() function for ESR.
Needs docs, but LaTeXification of the module docstring is all it needs.
\CVS: ----------------------------------------------------------------------
discussion on python-dev. 'from mod import *' is still banned except
at the module level.
Fix value for special NOOPT entry in symtable. Initialze to 0 instead
of None, so that later uses of PyInt_AS_LONG() are valid. (Bug
reported by Donn Cave.)
replace local REPR macros with PyObject_REPR in object.h
added test script and expected output file as well
this closes patch 103297.
__all__ attributes will be added to other modules without first submitting
a patch, just adding the necessary line to the test script to verify
more-or-less correct implementation.
except that it always returns Unicode objects.
A new C API PyObject_Unicode() is also provided.
This closes patch #101664.

message, and tries to make the messages more consistent and helpful when
the wrong number of arguments or duplicate keyword arguments are supplied.
Comes with more tests for test_extcall.py and and an update to an error
message in test/output/test_pyexpat.
pid across threads (but in that case, it's still the same process, and so
still sharing the "template" cache in tempfile.py). Repaired that, and
added a new std test.
On Linux, someone please run that standalone with more files and/or more
threads; e.g.,
python lib/test/test_threadedtempfile.py -f 1000 -t 10
to run with 10 threads each creating (and deleting) 1000 temp files.
codec to test all charmap codec features.
As side-effect of moving the test codec into a new module, the encodings
package codec import mechanism is checked as well.
Wasn't built on Windows; not in config.c either.
Module init function missing DL_EXPORT magic.
test_xreadline output file obviously wrong (started w/ "test_xrl").
test program very unclear about what was expected.
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.
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 urljoin() function, which exercises the urlparse() and urlunparse()
functions as side effects.
(Moshe, why did we have perfectly empty tests checked in for this?)
Christmas present to myself: the bisect module didn't define what
happened if the new element was already in the list. It so happens
that it inserted the new element "to the right" of all equal elements.
Since it wasn't defined, among other bad implications it was a mystery
how to use bisect to determine whether an element was already in the
list (I've seen code that *assumed* "to the right" without justification).
Added new methods bisect_left and insort_left that insert "to the left"
instead; made the old names bisect and insort aliases for the new names
bisect_right and insort_right; beefed up docstrings to explain what
these actually do; and added a std test for the bisect module.
information from the Expat library that is not part of its public API.
Do not print this information as the format of the string may (and will)
change as Expat evolves.
Add additional tests to make sure the ParserCreate() function raises the
right exceptions on illegal parameters.
roundtrip(): Show the offending syntax tree when things break; this makes
it a little easier to debug the module by adding test cases.
(Still need better tests for this module, but there's not enough time
today.)
