2-digit years are now converted using rules that are (according to
Fredrik Lundh) recommended by POSIX or X/Open: 0-68 mean 2000-2068,
69-99 mean 1969-1999.
2-digit years are now only accepted if time.accept2dyear is set to a
nonzero integer; if it is zero or not an integer or absent, only year
values >= 1900 are accepted. Year values 100-1899 and negative year
values are never accepted.
The initial value of time.accept2dyear depends on the environment
variable PYTHONY2K: if PYTHONY2K is set and non-empty,
time.accept2dyear is initialized to 0; if PYTHONY2K is empty or not
set, time.accept2dyear is initialized to 0.
to inside floatsleep(). This is necessary because floatsleep() does
the error handling and it must have grabbed the interpreter lock and
thread state before it can do so.
* posixmodule.c: don't prototype getcwd() -- it's not portable...
* mappingobject.c: double-check validity of last_name_char in
dict{lookup,insert,remove}.
* arraymodule.c: need memmove only for non-STDC Suns.
* Makefile: comment out HTML_LIBS and XT_USE by default
* pythonmain.c: don't prototype getopt() -- it's not standardized
* socketmodule.c: cast flags arg to {get,set}sockopt() and addrbuf arg to
recvfrom() to (ANY*).
* pythonrun.c (initsigs): fix prototype, make it static
* intobject.c (LONG_BIT): only #define it if not already defined
* classobject.[ch]: remove all references to unused instance_convert()
* mappingobject.c (getmappingsize): Don't return NULL in int function.
* timemodule.c: change #ifdef TURBO_C into #ifdef MSDOS
* posixmodule.c: MSDOS changes by Marcel van der Peijl (Digicash)
* stropmodule.c: use C isspace(c) to test for whitespace; add
whitespace, lowercase and uppercase variables to the module.
* many files: made some functions static; removed "extern int errno;".
* frozenmain.c: fixed bugs introduced on 24 June...
* flmodule.c: remove 1.5 bw compat hacks, add new functions in 2.2a
(and some old functions that were omitted).
* timemodule.c: added MSDOS floatsleep version .
* pgenmain.c: changed exit() to goaway() and added defn of goaway().
* intrcheck.c: add hack (to UNIX only) so interrupting 3 times
will exit from a hanging program. The second interrupt prints
a message explaining this to the user.
(the latter also in frozenmain.c)
* ceval.c: global 'killprint' flag raises exception when printing an
expression statement's value (useful for finding stray output)
* timemodule.c: add asctime() and ctime(). Change julian date to
1-based origin (as intended and documented).
* Removed unused DO_TIMES stuff from timemodule.c. Added 'epoch' and
'day0' globals (year where time.time() == 0 and day of the week the
epoch started).
Added $(SYSDEF) to its build rule in Makefile.
* cgensupport.[ch], modsupport.[ch]: removed some old stuff. Also
changed files that still used it... And made several things static
that weren't but should have been... And other minor cleanups...
* listobject.[ch]: add external interfaces {set,get}listslice
* socketmodule.c: fix bugs in new send() argument parsing.
* sunaudiodevmodule.c: added flush() and close().
stdwinmodule.c: wsetfont can now return an error
Makefile: add CL_USE and CL_LIB*S; config.c: move CL part around
New things in imgfile; also in Makefile.
longobject.c: fix comparison of negative long ints... [REAL BUG!]
marshal.c: add dumps() and loads() to read/write strings
timemodule.c: make sure there's always a floatsleep()
posixmodule.c: rationalize struct returned by times()
Makefile: add test target, disable imgfile by default
thread.c: Improved coexistance with dl module (sjoerd)
stdwinmodule.c: Change include stdwin.h if macintosh
rotormodule.c: added missing last argument to RTR_?_region calls
confic.c: merged with configmac.c, added 1993 to copyright message
fileobject.c: int compared to NULL in writestring(); change fopenRF ifdef
timemodule.c: simplify times() using mkvalue; include myselect.h
earlier (for sequent).
posixmodule: for sequent, include unistd.h instead of explicit
extern definitions and don't define rename()
Makefile: change misleading/wrong MD5 comments
* ceval.c: use #ifdef COMPAT_HACKS instead of #if 0
* Makefile: fix to make clmodule.c compile;
make config.o dependent on libpython.a (so date is always correct)
* timemodule.c: now sleep() also takes a float argument.
* posixmodule.c: added nice().
* posixmodule.c: move extern function declarations to top
* listobject.c: cmp() arguments must be void* if __STDC__
* Makefile, allobjects.h, panelmodule.c, modsupport.c: get rid of
strdup() -- it is a portability risk
* Makefile: enclosed ranlib command in parentheses for Sequent Make
which aborts if the command is not found even if '-' is present
* timemodule.c: time() returns a floating point number, in microsecond
precision if BSD_TIME is defined.
* socketmodule.c: get rid of makepair(); fix makesocketaddr to fix
broken recvfrom()
* socketmodule: get rid of getStrarg()
* ceval.h: move eval_code() to new file eval.h, so compile.h is no
longer needed.
* ceval.c: move thread comments to ceval.h; always make save/restore
thread functions available (for dynloaded modules)
* cdmodule.c, listobject.c: don't include compile.h
* flmodule.c: include ceval.h
* import.c: include eval.h instead of ceval.h
* cgen.py: add forground(); noport(); winopen(""); to initgl().
* bltinmodule.c, socketmodule.c, fileobject.c, posixmodule.c,
selectmodule.c:
adapt to threads (add BGN/END SAVE macros)
* stdwinmodule.c: adapt to threads and use a special stdwin lock.
* pythonmain.c: don't include getpythonpath().
* pythonrun.c: use BGN/END SAVE instead of direct calls; also more
BGN/END SAVE calls etc.
* thread.c: bigger stack size for sun; change exit() to _exit()
* threadmodule.c: use BGN/END SAVE macros where possible
* timemodule.c: adapt better to threads; use BGN/END SAVE; add
longsleep internal function if BSD_TIME; cosmetics
* split pythonmain.c in two: most stuff goes to pythonrun.c, in the library.
* new optional built-in threadmodule.c, build upon Sjoerd's thread.{c,h}.
* new module from Sjoerd: mmmodule.c (dynamically loaded).
* new module from Sjoerd: sv (svgen.py, svmodule.c.proto).
* new files thread.{c,h} (from Sjoerd).
* new xxmodule.c (example only).
* myselect.h: bzero -> memset
* select.c: bzero -> memset; removed global variable
