patch removes dependencies on the old unsupported KoreanCodecs package
and the alternative JapaneseCodecs package. Since both of those
provide aliases for their codecs, this removal just makes the generic
codec names work.
We needed to make slight changes to __init__() as well.
This will be backported to Python 2.3 when its branch freeze is over.
The chief benefit of this change is that requests will now use
HTTP/1.1 instead of HTTP/1.0. Bump the module version number as part
of the change.
There are two possible incompatibilities that we'll need to watch out
for when we get to an alpha release. We may get a different class of
exceptions out of httplib, and the do_open() method changed its
signature. The latter is only important if anyone actually subclasses
AbstractHTTPHandler.
John J. Lee writes: "the patch makes it possible to implement
functionality like HTTP cookie handling, Refresh handling,
etc. etc. using handler objects. At the moment urllib2's handler
objects aren't quite up to the job, which results in a lot of
cut-n-paste and subclassing. I believe the changes are
backwards-compatible, with the exception of people who've
reimplemented build_opener()'s functionality -- those people would
need to call opener.add_handler(HTTPErrorProcessor).
The main change is allowing handlers to implement
methods like:
http_request(request)
http_response(request, response)
In addition to the usual
http_open(request)
http_error{_*}(...)
"
Note that the change isn't well documented at least in part because
handlers aren't well documented at all. Need to fix this.
Add a bunch of new tests. It appears that none of these tests
actually use the network, so they don't need to be guarded by a
resource flag.

There is no SF item for this, but it was discussed on distutils-sig:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2003-November/003514.html
by request of Donovan Preston. In return, he promised to use this
to create a Python OSA component, which would turn Python
into a first-class OSA scripting language (like AppleScript itself).

that the docs only promise lengths up to 2048. Unfortunately this no

I've nailed that one. :-) Fixes SF 852281. Will backport to 2.3.

This addresses most of the remaining semantic changes promised by
PEP 237, except for repr() of a long, which still shows the trailing

changed semantics compared to Python 2.3, but this is not
implemented; we've suffered through enough warnings related to
hex/oct literals and I think it's best to be silent now.

This is a critical bugfix.

have been there since weakrefs were introduced.

the email.Header.Header class, which has a more sophisticated

The find_all_submodules() method in modulefinder only
looks for *.py, *.pyc, and *.pyo files. Python
extension modules are only found if they are referenced

This patch uses the actual list from imp.get_suffixes().
Backported myself.
subtype_dealloc(): This left the dying object exposed to gc, so that
if cyclic gc triggered during the weakref callback, gc tried to delete
the dying object a second time. That's a disaster. subtype_dealloc()
had a (I hope!) unique problem here, as every normal dealloc routine
untracks the object (from gc) before fiddling with weakrefs etc. But
subtype_dealloc has obscure technical reasons for re-registering the
dying object with gc (already explained in a large comment block at
the bottom of the function).
The fix amounts to simply refraining from reregistering the dying object
with gc until after the weakref callback (if any) has been called.
This is a critical bug (hard to predict, and causes seemingly random
memory corruption when it occurs). I'll backport it to 2.3 later.
Formerly, underlying queue was implemented in terms of two lists. The
new queue is a series of singly-linked fixed length lists.
The new implementation runs much faster, supports multi-way tees, and
allows tees of tees without additional memory costs.
The root ideas for this structure were contributed by Andrew Koenig
and Guido van Rossum.

destroyed before having iterated until they raised StopIteration.
* Simplify some code.
* Add new test cases to check for the memleak and ensure that mixing
iteration with modification of the values for existing keys works.
* tee object is no longer subclassable
* independent iterators renamed to "itertools.tee_iterator"
* fixed doc string typo and added entry in the module doc string
* Fixed typo in docstring for 'failUnlessAlmostEqual()'
* Removed unnecessary use of 'float()' for time values.
* Removed apparently unnecessary import of unittest. At some point in
the distant past I believe it was necessary otherwise the 'TestCase'
that a module saw was not the same as the 'TestCase' seen within
'unittest', and the user's TestCase subclasses were not recognised as
subclasses of the TestCase seen within unittest. Seems not to be
necessary now.
charmaptranslate_makespace() allocated more memory than required for the
next replacement but didn't remember that fact, so memory size was growing
exponentially every time a replacement string is longer that one character.
This fixes SF bug #828737.
It works like the pure python verion except:

* the data queue is implemented with two stacks instead of one dictionary.

this means the programmer doesn't need to know the fieldnames ahead of time.
The first row of the file will be used. In the uncommon case, this means
the programmer can set the reader's fieldnames attribute to None at any time
and have the next row read as the next set of fieldnames, so a csv file can

file_truncate(): C doesn't define what fflush(fp) does if fp is open
for update, and the preceding I/O operation on fp was input. On Windows,
fflush() actually changes the current file position then. Because
Windows doesn't support ftruncate() directly, this not only caused
Python's file.truncate() to change the file position (contra our docs),
it also caused the file not to change size.
Repaired by getting the initial file position at the start, restoring
it at the end, and tossing all the complicated micro-efficiency checks
trying to avoid "provably unnecessary" seeks. file.truncate() can't
be a frequent operation, and seeking to the current file position has
got to be cheap anyway.
Bugfix candidate.
random.sample() uses one of two algorithms depending on the ratio of the
sample size to the population size. One of the algorithms accepted any
iterable population argument so long as it defined __len__(). The other
had a stronger requirement that the population argument be indexable.
While it met the documentation specifications which insisted that the
population argument be a sequence, it made random.sample() less usable
with sets. So, the second algorithm was modified to coerce non-indexable
iterables and dictionaries into a tuple before proceeding.

For smaller datasets, it is not always true the increasing the compression

* Relaxed the argument restrictions for non-operator methods. They now
allow any iterable instead of requiring a set. This makes the module
a little easier to use and paves the way for an efficient C
implementation which can take better advantage of iterable arguments
while screening out immutables.
* Deprecated Set.update() because it now duplicates Set.union_update()
* Adapted the tests and docs to include the above changes.
* Added more test coverage including testing identities and checking
to make sure non-restartable generators work as arguments.
Will backport to Py2.3.1 so that the interface remains consistent
across versions. The deprecation of update() will be changed to

Timezone storage has been reworked to be simpler and more flexible. All values

Obtain the original locale in the documented way. This way actually

Restore the original locale at the end, instead of forcing to "C".
Move the locale fiddling into the test driver instead of doing it as a

surely has no justification for doing that as an import side-effect.
Now whenever the locale-changing code executes, the locale-restoring code

are satisfied in a case-insensitive manner, the attempt to import (the
non-existent) fcntl gets satisfied by FCNTL.py instead, and the tempfile
module defines a Unix-specific _set_cloexec() function in that case. As
a result, temp files can't be created then (blows up with an AttributeError
trying to reference fcntl.fcntl). This just popped up in the spambayes
project, where there is no apparent workaround (which is why I'm pushing
this in now).
If this doesn't happen, it leaves the locale in a state that can cause
other tests to fail. For example, running test_strptime,
test_logging, and test_time in that order.
skip over functions with private names (as indicated by the underscore
naming convention). The old default created too much of a risk that
user tests were being skipped inadvertently. Note, this change could
break code in the unlikely case that someone had intentionally put
failing tests in the docstrings of private functions. The breakage
is easily fixable by specifying the old behavior when calling testmod()
or Tester(). The more likely case is that the silent failure was
unintended and that the user needed to be informed so the test could be
fixed.
Extensions must still be configured manually and there is currently one

databases are associated with corruption problems, so I studied this code
carefully and ran some brutal stress tests. I didn't find any bugs,
although it's unclear whether this code *intends* that __setitem__ can
leave the directory file out of synch with the data file (so
if a dumbdbm isn't properly closed, and the value of an existing key
was ever replaced, corruption is almost certain, where "corruption"
means the directory file is out of synch with the data file).
Added many comments and generally modernized the code. Examples of the
latter: we have better ways of reading a whole file line-by-line now;
eval() now tolerates a trailing newline; the %r format code can be used
to avoid explicit repr/backtick calls; and the code often broke tuples
into their components when it was clearer and faster to just leave them
as tuples.
Add API function simplefilter() that does not create or install
regular expressions to match message or module. Extend the filters
data structure to store None as an alternative to re.compile("").
Move the _test() function to test_warnings and add some code to try
and avoid disturbing the global state of the warnings module.
At this point, the problem appears particular to the OS/2 EMX port of
gdbm (which is at v1.7.3) - this combination produces a .pag file but
no .dir file.
A more sophisticated patch which checks magic numbers when dbm.library
indicates that dbm is linked to gdbm, and there is no .dir file, is
still attached to the above patch entry for reconsideration after 2.3
is released.
This checkin applies a workaround specific to the known failure case.

* Extended DB & DBEnv set_get_returns_none functionality to take a
"level" instead of a boolean flag. The boolean 0 and 1 values still
have the same effect. A value of 2 extends the "return None instead
of raising an exception" behaviour to the DBCursor set methods.
This will become the default behaviour in pybsddb 4.2.
* Fixed a typo in DBCursor.join_item method that made it crash instead
of returning a value. Obviously nobody uses it. Wrote a test case

- reworked extension module inclusion code: put all .so files in
a subdirectory of Contents/Resources/, but more importantly,
correctly support extensions that are submodules.
The obvious way for this assertion to fail is if the LineAndFileWrapper constructor is called when an empty line. Raise a BadStatusError before the call.
Analysis by Bob Halley:
The test seems to expect that if time.daylight is true, then the
is_dst field of the tm structure will be 1 too. But this isn't
the case, since daylight is true if the timezone does DST, *not*
if DST is in effect.
I won't have time to write real docs, but spent a lot of time adding
comments to his code and fleshing out the exported functions' docstrings.
There's probably opportunity to consolidate how docstrings get extracted
too, and the new code for that is probably better than the old code for
that (which strained mightily to recover from 2.2's new class/type
gimmicks).
SF bug #760703: SocketHandler and LogRecord don't work well together
SF bug #757821: logging module docs
Applied Vinay Sajip's patch with a few minor fixups and a NEWS item.
Patched __init__.py - added new function
makeLogRecord (for bug report 760703).
Patched handlers.py - updated some docstrings and
deleted some old commented-out code.
Patched test_logging.py to make use of makeLogRecord.
Patched liblogging.tex to fill documentation gaps (both
760703 and bug 757821).
now accepts "True" when a test expects "1", and similarly for "False"
versus "0". This is un-doctest-like, but on balance makes it much
more pleasant to write doctests that pass under 2.2 and 2.3. I expect
it to go away again, when 2.2 is forgotten. In the meantime, there's
a new doctest module constant that can be passed to a new optional
argument, if you want to turn this behavior off.
Note that this substitution is very simple-minded: the expected and
actual outputs have to consist of single tokens. No attempt is made,
e.g., to accept [True, False] when a test expects [1, 0]. This is a
simple hack for simple tests, and I intend to keep it that way.
