Tim Peters 528ca53b74 SF bug #1028306: date-datetime comparison
Treat comparing a date to a datetime like a mixed-type comparison.

Tim Peters 9ddf40b4e1 SF patch 876130: add C API to datetime module, from Anthony Tuininga.
The LaTeX is untested (well, so is the new API, for that matter).
Note that I also changed NULL to get spelled consistently in concrete.tex.
If that was a wrong thing to do, Fred should yell at me.

Tim Peters 1b6f7a9057 Bug 975996: Add _PyTime_DoubleToTimet to C API
New include file timefuncs.h exports private API function
_PyTime_DoubleToTimet() from timemodule.c.  timemodule should export
some other functions too (look for painful bits in datetimemodule.c).

Added insane-argument checking to datetime's assorted fromtimestamp()
and utcfromtimestamp() methods.  Added insane-argument tests of these
to test_datetime, and insane-argument tests for ctime(), localtime()
and gmtime() to test_time.

Tim Peters 604c013ef2 SF 952807: Unpickling pickled instances of subclasses of datetime.date,
datetime.datetime and datetime.time could yield insane objects.  Thanks
to Jiwon Seo for the fix.

Bugfix candidate.  I'll backport it to 2.3.

Tim Peters 3f60629242 SF bug 847019 datetime.datetime initialization needs more strict checking
It's possible to create insane datetime objects by using the constructor
"backdoor" inserted for fast unpickling.  Doing extensive range checking
would eliminate the backdoor's purpose (speed), but at least a little
checking can stop honest mistakes.

Bugfix candidate.

Brett Cannon d1080a3418 Have strftime() check its time tuple argument to make sure the tuple's values
are within proper boundaries as specified in the docs.

This can break possible code (datetime module needed changing, for instance)
that uses 0 for values that need to be greater 1 or greater (month, day, and
day of year).

Fixes bug #897625.

Raymond Hettinger f69d9f6818 SF bug #761337: datetime.strftime fails on trivial format string
The interning of short strings violates the refcnt==1 assumption for
_PyString_Resize().

A simple fix is to boost the initial value of "totalnew" by 1.
Combined with an NULL argument to PyString_FromStringAndSize(),
this assures that resulting format string is not interned.
This will remain true even if the implementation of
PyString_FromStringAndSize() changes because only the uninitialized
strings that can be interned are those of zero length.

Added a test case.

Tim Peters 03eaf8b1ae Added more words about the abuse of the tp_alloc nitems argument
perpetrated by the time and datetime classes.
2003-05-18 02:24:46 +00:00
Tim Peters b0c854d6a7 datetime.timedelta is now subclassable in Python. The new test shows
one good use:  a subclass adding a method to express the duration as
a number of hours (or minutes, or whatever else you want to add).  The
native breakdown into days+seconds+us is often clumsy.  Incidentally
moved a large chunk of object-initialization code closer to the top of
the file, to avoid worse forward-reference trickery.

Tim Peters a98924a063 datetime.datetime and datetime.time can now be subclassed in Python. Brr. 2003-05-17 05:55:19 +00:00
Tim Peters 4c53013030 Turns out there wasn't a need to define tp_free for any of the types here. 2003-05-16 22:44:06 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 8b7a9a38c6 The date class is now properly subclassable. (SF bug #720908)
(This is only the tip of the iceberg; the time and datetime classes
need the same treatment.)

Tim Peters aa7d849c7a timedelta comparison and datetime addition: as the Python implementation
of datetime does, accept instances of subclasses too.
2003-02-08 03:28:59 +00:00
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().

Tim Peters 70533e28ad New functions alloc_{time,datetime}. Got rid of all setstate-like
functions.  Reworked {time,datetime}_new() to do what their corresponding
setstates used to do in their state-tuple-input paths, but directly,
without constructing an object with throwaway state first.  Tightened
the "is this a state tuple input?" paths to check the presumed state
string-length too, and to raise an exception if the optional second state
element isn't a tzinfo instance (IOW, check these paths for type errors
as carefully as the normal paths).
2003-02-01 04:40:04 +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!).
2003-02-01 02:54:15 +00:00
Tim Peters 1f1b2d2e68 Removed all uses of the out-of-favor __safe_for_unpickling__ magic
attr, and copy_reg.safe_constructors.

Tim Peters 371935fc06 All over: changed comments to reflect pickling is straightforward now,
not the maze it was.

Tim Peters 8a60c2238b delta_setstate(): This waS no longer referenced, so nukeit.
delta_reduce():  Simplified.
2003-02-01 01:47:29 +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 abc7cd27ff Backward branches are disgusting, at least when a forward branch
is just as easy.
2003-01-31 01:37:35 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 177e41a117 Change the approach to pickling to use __reduce__ everywhere. Most
classes have a __reduce__ that returns (self.__class__,
self.__getstate__()).  tzinfo.__reduce__() is a bit smarter, calling
__getinitargs__ and __getstate__ if they exist, and falling back to
__dict__ if it exists and isn't empty.
2003-01-30 22:06:23 +00:00
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 8bb5ad2e56 Updated the astimezone() proof to recover from all the last week's

Tim Peters 2a44a8d332 SF bug 660872: datetimetz constructors behave counterintuitively (2.3a1).
This gives much the same treatment to datetime.fromtimestamp(stamp, tz) as
the last batch of checkins gave to datetime.now(tz):  do "the obvious"
thing with the tz argument instead of a senseless thing.

Tim Peters b1049e8eca fromutc(): Repair incorrect failure return, as noted by NealN. Thanks! 2003-01-23 17:20:36 +00:00
Tim Peters 52dcce24e2 Bringing the code and test suite into line with doc and NEWS changes
checked in two days agao:

Refactoring of, and new rules for, dt.astimezone(tz).

dt must be aware now, and tz.utcoffset() and tz.dst() must not return None.
The old dt.astimezone(None) no longer works to change an aware datetime
into a naive datetime; use dt.replace(tzinfo=None) instead.

The tzinfo base class now supplies a new fromutc(self, dt) method, and
datetime.astimezone(tz) invokes tz.fromutc().  The default implementation
of fromutc() reproduces the same results as the old astimezone()
implementation, but tzinfo subclasses can override fromutc() if the
default implementation isn't strong enough to get the correct results
in all cases (for example, this may be necessary if a tzinfo subclass
models a time zone whose "standard offset" (wrt UTC) changed in some
year(s), or in some variations of double-daylight time -- the creativity
of time zone politics can't be captured in a single default implementation).
2003-01-23 16:36:11 +00:00
Tim Peters 327098a613 New rule for tzinfo subclasses handling both standard and daylight time:
When daylight time ends, an hour repeats on the local clock (for example,
in US Eastern, the clock jumps from 1:59 back to 1:00 again).  Times in
the repeated hour are ambiguous.  A tzinfo subclass that wants to play
with astimezone() needs to treat times in the repeated hour as being
standard time.  astimezone() previously required that such times be
treated as daylight time.  There seems no killer argument either way,
but Guido wants the standard-time version, and it does seem easier the
new way to code both American (local-time based) and European (UTC-based)
switch rules, and the astimezone() implementation is simpler.

Neal Norwitz 8e914d9a1d Get rid of compiler warnings 2003-01-10 15:29:16 +00:00
Tim Peters 37f398282b Got rid of the timetz type entirely. This was a bit trickier than I
hoped it would be, but not too bad.  A test had to change:
time.__setstate__() can no longer add a non-None tzinfo member to a time
object that didn't already have one, since storage for a tzinfo member
doesn't exist in that case.
2003-01-10 03:49:02 +00:00
Tim Peters 33e0f383d4 Removed more now-pointless pickle code. 2003-01-10 02:05:14 +00:00
Tim Peters 7d4b315cca Deleted pickle/unpickle code for the old datetime and time classes -- it's
unreachable now.
2003-01-08 20:51:36 +00:00
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.

Jack Jansen b8941f2dbe Added a couple of casts to make this compile with CodeWarrior. 2003-01-08 16:28:45 +00:00
Tim Peters 75a6e3bd1a datetime_from_timet_and_us(): ignore leap seconds if the platform
localtime()/gmtime() insists on delivering them, + associated doc
changes.

Redid the docs for datetimtez.astimezone().
2003-01-04 18:17:36 +00:00
Tim Peters adf642038e A new implementation of astimezone() that does what we agreed on in all
cases, plus even tougher tests of that.  This implementation follows
the correctness proof very closely, and should also be quicker (yes,
I wrote the proof before the code, and the code proves the proof <wink>).

Neal Norwitz 506a224688 Fix compiler warning 2003-01-04 01:02:25 +00:00
Tim Peters 4fede1a36b Completed astimezone()'s correctness proof. This also proves we can get
the desired compromise behavior during the "problem hour" when DST ends
cheaply (but I haven't yet implemented that).
2003-01-04 00:26:59 +00:00
Tim Peters 397301eccb The tzinfo methods utcoffset() and dst() must return a timedelta object
(or None) now.  In 2.3a1 they could also return an int or long, but that
was an unhelpfully redundant leftover from an earlier version wherein
they couldn't return a timedelta.  TOOWTDI.
