Matthias Klose a2542bee59 The attached patch fixes FTBFS on GNU/k*BSD. The problem happens on GNU/k*BSD
because GNU/k*BSD uses gnu pth to provide pthreads, but will also happen on any
system that does the same.

python fails to build because it doesn't detect gnu pth in pthread
emulation. See C comments in patch for details.

Raymond Hettinger d3fe2395b4 Minor improvements to the threading introduction:
* Expand the example to show a join.

* Mention the use case of I/O running concurrent with a computational
  thread.

* Be a tad more forceful about recommending Queue over other approaches
  to synchonization.

* Eliminate discussion around having a single interpreter.  This is a
  more advanced discussion that belongs in the library reference and
  in a section on extending and embedding.

Brett Cannon add33601c2 Correct the order of application for decorators. Meant to be bottom-up and not
top-down.  Now matches the PEP.

Johannes Gijsbers 34c4120731 bug #989672: pdb.doc and the help messages for the help_d and help_u methods
of the pdb.Pdb class gives have been corrected. d(own) goes to a newer frame,
u(p) to an older frame, not the other way around.

Johannes Gijsbers 4ec40648a5 bug #990669: os.path.realpath() will resolve symlinks before normalizing the
path, as normalizing the path may alter the meaning of the path if it contains
symlinks.

Also add tests for infinite symlink loops and parent symlinks that need to be
resolved.

Johannes Gijsbers f9a098efe1 Catch OSError raised when src or dst argument to os.path.samefile doesn't
exist.

Johannes Gijsbers b112d6ed78 bug 990669: os.path.normpath may alter the meaning of a path if it contains
symbolic links. This has been documented in a comment since 1992, but is now in
the library reference as well.

Johannes Gijsbers 9d134b7386 bug #851123: shutil.copyfile will raise an exception when trying to copy a file
onto a link to itself. Thanks Gregory Ball.

Johannes Gijsbers 68128715f2 Unwrap too-smart loop: we can't use `src` for both hard and symbolic links. 2004-08-14 13:57:08 +00:00
Johannes Gijsbers 46f1459860 Raise an exception when src and dst refer to the same file via a hard link or a
symbolic link (bug #851123 / patch #854853, thanks Gregory Ball).

Johannes Gijsbers 404b06814c Reset old locale after running tests. Not doing so broke
test_format/test_unicode in some circumstances (patch #1007539/bug #992078).

Andrew M. Kuchling 9d499f2f96 Back out patch #982681 2004-08-13 20:06:57 +00:00
Brett Cannon b3de2e13ba 'inspect' was not listing the functions in a module properly if the module was
reached through a symlink (was comparing path of module to path to function and
were not matching because of the symlink).  os.path.realpath() is now used to
solve this discrepency.

Closes bug #570300.  Thanks Johannes Gijsbers for the fix.

Tim Peters 41a65ea7fe Doctest has new traceback gimmicks in 2.4. While trying to document
them (which they are now), I had to rewrite the code to understand
it.  This has got to be the most DWIM part of doctest -- but in context
is really necessary.

Fred Drake 39689c5c6a make exception propogation more efficient; this avoids having Expat parse
the remaining data in the buffer (which it had done happily without reporting
any results)

this depends on a new feature in Expat added in 1.95.8

Tim Peters 8a3b69ca8f Excruciatingly slow progress on the docs. Option flags / directive names
are documented now, and ripped out a bunch of "private name" convolutions.

Tim Peters 79b52b7261 Boosted the stack reservation for python.exe and python_w.exe from the
default 1MB to 2 million bytes.  The test suite passes with -uall again
(test_compiler no longer drives WinXP into an insane state).

Michael W. Hudson 5523c2517f A NEWS entry for my last checked in change (I've gotten out of the
habit of these, sorry).

Michael W. Hudson 6093462739 Fix bug
[ 1005248 ] new.code() not cleanly checking its arguments

using the result of new.code() can still destroy the sun, but merely
calling the function shouldn't any more.

I also rewrote the existing tests of new.code() to use vastly less
un-bogus arguments, and added tests for the previous insane behaviours.
