Fixed leak caused by switching from PyList_GetItem to PySequence_GetItem.
Added missing NULL check.
Clarified code by converting an "if" to an "else if".
Will backport to 2.3.
arbitrary bytes before the actual zip compatible archive. Zipfiles
containing comments at the end of the file are still not supported.
Add a testcase to test_zipimport, and update NEWS.
This closes sf #775637 and sf #669036.
New Plan (releases to be made off the head, ongoing random 2.4 stuff
to be done on a short-lived branch, provided anyone is motivated enough
to create one).
I don't think the fix here is very good, but I'm not sure what would
be better. In particular, we should not be defining _SGIAPI, but lots
of things break if we remove it.
* Extended DB & DBEnv set_get_returns_none functionality to take a
"level" instead of a boolean flag. The boolean 0 and 1 values still
have the same effect. A value of 2 extends the "return None instead
of raising an exception" behaviour to the DBCursor set methods.
This will become the default behaviour in pybsddb 4.2.
* Fixed a typo in DBCursor.join_item method that made it crash instead
of returning a value. Obviously nobody uses it. Wrote a test case
for join and join_item.
after running the script so that a program could do something like:
os.environ['PYTHONINSPECT'] = 1

Added a new exception, socket.timeout so that timeouts can be differentiated
from other socket exceptions.
Docs, more tests, and newsitem to follow.
If the callback raised an exception but did not set curexc_traceback,
the trace function was called with PyTrace_RETURN. That is, the trace
function was called with an exception set. The main loop detected the
exception when the trace function returned; it complained and disabled
tracing.
Fix the logic error so that PyTrace_RETURN only occurs if the callback
returned normally.
The trace function must be called for exceptions, too. So we had
to add new functionality to call with PyTrace_EXCEPTION. (Leads to a
rather ugly ifdef / else block that contains only a '}'.)
Reverse the logic and name of NOFIX_TRACE to FIX_TRACE.
Joint work with Fred.
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.
* Updated comment on design of imap()
* Added untraversed object in izip() structure
* Replaced the pairwise() example with a more general window() example
SF bug [ 751276 ] cPickle doesn't raise error, pickle does (recursiondepth)
Most of the calls to PyErr_Clear() were intended to catch & clear an
attribute error and try something different. Guard all those cases
with a PyErr_ExceptionMatches() and fail if some other error
occurred. The other error is likely a bug in the user code.
This is basically the C equivalent of changing "except:" to
"except AttributeError:"
stack usage on FreeBSD, requiring the recursion limit to be lowered
further. Building with gcc 2.95 (the standard compiler on FreeBSD 4.x)
is now also affected.
The underlying issue is that FreeBSD's pthreads implementation has a
hard-coded 1MB stack size for the initial (or "primary") thread, which
can not be changed without rebuilding libc_r. Exhausting this stack
results in a bus error.
Building without pthreads (configure --without-threads), or linking
with the port of the Linux pthreads library (aka Linuxthreads) instead
of libc_r, avoids this limitation.
On OS/2, only gcc 3.2 is affected and the stack size is controllable,
so the special handling has been removed.
build (assert(gc->gc.gc_refs != 0) in visit_decref()).
Because OSSAudioError is a global, we must compensate (twice!) for
PyModule_AddObject()'s "helpful" decref of the object it adds.
* it no longer takes ssize, which served no purpose apart from
scolding you if you got it wrong
* changed the order of the three remaining required arguments
to (format, channels, rate) to match the order in which they
must be set
* replaced the optional argument 'emulate' with 'strict': if strict
true, and the audio device does not accept the requested sampling
parameters, raise OSSAudioError
* return a tuple (format, channels, rate) reflecting the sampling
parameters that were actually set
Change the canonical name of ossaudiodev.error to
ossaudiodev.OSSAudioError (keep an alias for backwards compatibility).
Remove 'audio_types' list and 'n_audio_types' (no longer needed now that
setparameters() no longer has an 'ssize' argument to police).
* sync(), because it waits for hardware buffers to flush, which
can take several seconds depending on cirumstances (according
to the OSS docs)
* close(), because it does an implicit sync()
tp_free is NULL or PyObject_Del at the end. Because it's a base type
it must call tp_free in its dealloc function, and because it's gc'able
it must not call PyObject_Del.
inherit_slots(): Don't inherit tp_free unless the type and its base
agree about whether they're gc'able. If the type is gc'able and the
base is not, and the base uses the default PyObject_Del for its
tp_free, give the type PyObject_GC_Del for its tp_free (the appropriate
default for a gc'able type).
cPickle.c: The Pickler and Unpickler types claim to be base classes
and gc'able, but their dealloc functions didn't call tp_free.
Repaired that. Also call PyType_Ready() on these typeobjects, so
that the correct (PyObject_GC_Del) default memory-freeing function
gets plugged into these types' tp_free slots.
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.
the itertoolsmodule.
* Taught itertools.repeat(obj, n) to treat negative repeat counts as
zero. This behavior matches that for sequences and prevents
infinite loops.
that was used to start the thread. This is useful to track down the
source of the problem when there is no traceback, as can happen when a
daemon thread gets to run after Python is finialized (a new kind of
event, somehow this is now possible due to changes in Py_Finalize()).
to use LASTMARK_SAVE()/LASTMARK_RESTORE(), based on the discussion
in patch #712900.
- Cleaned up LASTMARK_SAVE()/LASTMARK_RESTORE() usage, based on the
established rules.
- Moved the upper part of the just commited patch (relative to bug #725106)
to outside the for() loop of BRANCH OP. There's no need to mark_save()
in every loop iteration.
This problem is related to a wrong behavior from mark_save/restore(),
which don't restore the mark_stack_base before restoring the marks.
Greg's suggestion was to change the asserts, which happen to be
the only recursive ops that can continue the loop, but the problem would
happen to any operation with the same behavior. So, rather than
hardcoding this into asserts, I have changed mark_save/restore() to
always restore the stackbase before restoring the marks.
Both solutions should fix these two cases, presented by Greg:
>>> re.match('(a)(?:(?=(b)*)c)*', 'abb').groups()
('b', None)
>>> re.match('(a)((?!(b)*))*', 'abb').groups()
('b', None, None)
The rest of the bug and patch in #725149 must be discussed further.
within repeats of alternatives. The only change to the original
patch was to convert the tests to the new test_re.py file.
This patch fixes cases like:
>>> re.match('((a)|b)*', 'abc').groups()
('b', '')
Which is wrong (it's impossible to match the empty string),
and incompatible with other regex systems, like the following
examples show:
% perl -e '"abc" =~ /^((a)|b)*/; print "$1 $2\n";'
b a
% echo "abc" | sed -r -e "s/^((a)|b)*/\1 \2|/"
b a|c
- The socket module now provides the functions inet_pton and inet_ntop
for converting between string and packed representation of IP addresses.
See SF patch #658327.
This still needs a bit of work in the doc area, because it is not
available on all platforms (especially not on Windows).
