Guido van Rossum 6297a7a9fb - PyEval_GetFrame() is now declared to return a PyFrameObject *
instead of a plain PyObject *.  (SF patch #686601 by Ben Laurie.)

Guido van Rossum 162e38c6a3 - sys.path[0] (the directory from which the script is loaded) is now
turned into an absolute pathname, unless it is the empty string.
  (SF patch #664376, by Skip Montanaro.)

Guido van Rossum 4507ec70cf - The audio driver tests (test_ossaudiodev.py and
test_linuxaudiodev.py) are no longer run by default.  This is
  because they don't always work, depending on your hardware and
  software.  To run these tests, you must use an invocation like
    ./python Lib/test/regrtest.py -u audio test_ossaudiodev

Guido van Rossum 1442dc1194 Add SF reference to news item. 2003-02-13 22:19:20 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4b499dd3fb - Finally fixed the bug in compile() and exec where a string ending
with an indented code block but no newline would raise SyntaxError.
  This would have been a four-line change in parsetok.c...  Except
  codeop.py depends on this behavior, so a compilation flag had to be
  invented that causes the tokenizer to revert to the old behavior;
  this required extra changes to 2 .h files, 2 .c files, and 2 .py
  files.  (Fixes SF bug #501622.)

Guido van Rossum 298e421453 SF patch #685738 by Michael Stone.
This changes the default __new__ to refuse arguments iff tp_init is the
default __init__ implementation -- thus making it a TypeError when you
try to pass arguments to a constructor if the class doesn't override at
least __init__ or __new__.

Guido van Rossum c4f4ca91e1 Provide access to the import lock, fixing SF bug #580952. This is
mostly from SF patch #683257, but I had to change unlock_import() to
return an error value to avoid fatal error.

Should this be backported?  The patch requested this, but it's a new
feature.
2003-02-12 21:46:11 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 47710656e5 Issue a warning when int('0...', 0) returns an int with the sign
folded; this will change in Python 2.4.  On a 32-bit machine, this
happens for 0x80000000 through 0xffffffff, and for octal constants in
the same value range.  No warning is issued if an explicit base is
given, *or* if the string contains a sign (since in those cases no
sign folding ever happens).

Guido van Rossum 48035eb452 SF #660455 : patch by NNorwitz.
"Unsigned" (i.e., positive-looking, but really negative) hex/oct
constants with a leading minus sign are once again properly negated.
The micro-optimization for negated numeric constants did the wrong
thing for such hex/oct constants.  The patch avoids the optimization
for all hex/oct constants.

This needs to be backported to Python 2.2!

Guido van Rossum 03bc7d3c4d SF #532767: isinstance(x, X) should work when x is a proxy for an X

Tim Peters 07534a607b Comparison for timedelta, time, date and datetime objects: __eq__ and
__ne__ no longer complain if they don't know how to compare to the other
thing.  If no meaningful way to compare is known, saying "not equal" is
sensible.  This allows things like

    if adatetime in some_sequence:
and
    somedict[adatetime] = whatever

to work as expected even if some_sequence contains non-datetime objects,
or somedict non-datetime keys, because they only call __eq__.

It still complains (raises TypeError) for mixed-type comparisons in
contexts that require a total ordering, such as list.sort(), use as a
key in a BTree-based data structure, and cmp().

Jeremy Hylton 985eba53f5 Small function call optimization and special build option for call stats.
-DCALL_PROFILE: Count the number of function calls executed.

When this symbol is defined, the ceval mainloop and helper functions
count the number of function calls made.  It keeps detailed statistics
about what kind of object was called and whether the call hit any of
the special fast paths in the code.

Optimization:

When we take the fast_function() path, which seems to be taken for
most function calls, and there is minimal frame setup to do, avoid
call PyEval_EvalCodeEx().  The eval code ex function does a lot of
work to handle keywords args and star args, free variables,
generators, etc.  The inlined version simply allocates the frame and
copies the arguments values into the frame.

The optimization gets a little help from compile.c which adds a
CO_NOFREE flag to code objects that don't have free variables or cell
variables.  This change allows fast_function() to get into the fast
path with fewer tests.

I measure a couple of percent speedup in pystone with this change, but
there's surely more that can be done.

Guido van Rossum 7d9ea5013f - Thanks to Scott David Daniels, a subtle bug in how the zlib

because it no longer takes forever when run from test_pickle.py.
2003-02-02 07:51:32 +00:00
Tim Peters b57f8f02ba There's no good reason for datetime objects to expose __getstate__()
anymore either, so don't.  This also allows to get rid of obscure code
making __getnewargs__ identical to __getstate__ (hmm ... hope there
wasn't more to this than I realize!).

Raymond Hettinger 96ef8115dd Move itertools module from the sandbox and into production. 2003-02-01 00:10:11 +00:00
Tim Peters 506be287aa The various datetime object __setstate__() methods are no longer public
(pickling no longer needs them, and immutable objects shouldn't have
visible __setstate__() methods regardless).  Rearranged the code to
put the internal setstate functions in the constructor sections.
Repaired the timedelta reduce() method, which was still producing
stuff that required a public timedelta.__setstate__() when unpickling.

Tim Peters 8d81a012ef date and datetime comparison: when we don't know how to
compare against "the other" argument, we raise TypeError,
in order to prevent comparison from falling back to the
default (and worse than useless, in this case) comparison
by object address.

That's fine so far as it goes, but leaves no way for
another date/datetime object to make itself comparable
to our objects.  For example, it leaves Marc-Andre no way
to teach mxDateTime dates how to compare against Python
dates.

Discussion on Python-Dev raised a number of impractical
ideas, and the simple one implemented here:  when we don't
know how to compare against "the other" argument, we raise
TypeError *unless* the other object has a timetuple attr.
In that case, we return NotImplemented instead, and Python
will give the other object a shot at handling the
comparison then.

Note that comparisons of time and timedelta objects still
suffer the original problem, though.

Tim Peters 2a44a8d332 SF bug 660872: datetimetz constructors behave counterintuitively (2.3a1).
This gives much the same treatment to datetime.fromtimestamp(stamp, tz) as

thing with the tz argument instead of a senseless thing.

Tim Peters f196a0a4dd "Premature" doc changes, for new astimezone() rules, and the new
tzinfo.fromutc() method.  The C code doesn't implement any of this
yet (well, not the C code on the machine I'm using now), nor does
the test suite reflect it.  The Python datetime.py implementation and
test suite in the sandbox do match these doc changes.  The C
implementation probably won't catch up before Thursday (Wednesday is
a scheduled "black hole" day this week <0.4 wink>).

Tim Peters 0bf60bd67f Utterly minimal changes to collapse datetimetz into datetime, and timetz
into time.  This is little more than *exporting* the datetimetz object
under the name "datetime", and similarly for timetz.  A good implementation
of this change requires more work, but this is fully functional if you
don't stare too hard at the internals (e.g., right now a type named
"datetime" shows up as a base class of the type named "datetime").  The
docs also need extensive revision, not part of this checkin.
