* Popen() avoids ugly shell escape: target.replace('"', '\\"')
* Use proc.communicate() instead of f.stdout.read()
* Get output from stdout by splitting with ": " instead of splitting by spaces
to support filename with spaces
Two itimer tests and an interprocess signal test fail on FreeBSD 6 if
any test that starts a thread runs before test_signal. Since FreeBSD7
does not show this behavior, the bug is most likely a platform bug,
so this patch just skips the failing tests on freebsd6.
Rather than depending on some sleep value, start up an interpreter
as a subprocess and communicate with it. Because subprocess pipes
can't be read from until EOF and I want to read from them before that,
use ctypes to peek by using PeekNamedPipe. Once the subprocess has
written the message, then it is ready to roll and accept signals.
After that, kill it.
David Bolen's buildbot isn't know for it's speed, and it seems that we
may have been trying to kill the subprocess before it was fully
initialized. I ran with this change on the bot itself and it seemed to work.
Instead of spaces between the filename and date (or whatever the string
is that follows the filename, if any) use tabs. This is what the unix
'diff' command does, for example, and difflib was intended to follow
the 'standard' way of doing diffs. This improves compatibility with
patch tools. The docs and examples are also changed to recommended that
the date format used be the ISO 8601 format, which is what modern diff
tools emit by default.
Patch by Anatoly Techtonik.
Fixed a typo in the email.encoders module so that messages output using
an ISO-2022 character set will use a content-transfer-encoding of
7bit consistently. Previously if the input data had any eight bit
characters the output data would get marked as 8bit even though it
was actually 7bit.
1. The assumptions in check_node() were too restrictive:
- Hardware addresses with universal_local_bit=1 are valid
(locally administered).
- Many of the tested functions (including uuid.getnode())
may return valid RFC 4122 random node IDs. These are pretty
much random 48-bit values with the multicast bit set to 1.
2. _unixdll_getnode() calls _uuid_generate_time(), which may be None
on some platforms. The resulting TypeError is now caught.
The test_classify_oldstyle and test_classify_newstyle methods of
test.test_inspect.TestClassesAndFunctions were previously almost
identical (aside from irrelevant whitespace and one semantic
difference). They now share a single helper.
Fixes issue #8363.
