Fred Drake a2c2595024 Add a version annotation regarding the urlopen(proxies={...}). 2002-04-04 20:58:02 +00:00
Fred Drake df6eca7eb7 Support manual proxy configuration for simple urlopen() operations.
This change is similar to the supplied patch, but does not save the opener
when a proxy configuration is specified.
This closes SF patch #523415.
2002-04-04 20:41:34 +00:00
Fred Drake 5ca3a08cc0 The rest of the documentation for manual proxy configuration for a basic
urlopen().
This is part of SF patch #523415.

Tim Peters 3318792e5f SF bug 497854: Short-cuts missing for All Users

on XP.

Fred Drake fed7e85791 Add note about changes in xml.sax.expatreader. 2002-04-04 19:36:15 +00:00
Fred Drake da204daeaa Not sure why the regression test missed this, but the PyXML tests caught it.
We should get attributes from the right object.

Fred Drake e13602ee49 Mark the notice about the new development version of the docs as not needing
to be archived.  Most of these are pretty bland.  ;-)

Fred Drake 012c81fc97 Avoid creating circular references between the ExpatParser and the
ContentHandler.  While GC will eventually clean up, it can take longer than
normal for applications that create a lot of strings (or other immutables)
rather without creating many containers.
This closes SF bug #535474.

Guido van Rossum bfc2e5ee8e Clarifying code rearrangement and comments by David Abrahams. I've
got to admit that I haven't reviewed this carefully, but it looks okay
from 30,000 views, and doesn't break anything.  (SF patch 536407.)

Marc-André Lemburg 4626009493 Added note about updated freeze.py Tool. 2002-04-04 16:17:11 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg 64b4f2770e Updated freeze.py to the new Makefile symbol layout.
Fixed a few compiler warnings.

freeze.py now produces binaries which can import shared
modules (unlike before).

Tim Peters b7265dbe3e _PyMalloc_Realloc(): removed a now-pointless cast. 2002-04-04 05:08:31 +00:00
Tim Peters 84c1b97467 _PyMalloc_{Malloc, Realloc}: Strive to meet the doc's promises about
what these do given a 0 size argument.  This is so that when pymalloc
is enabled, we don't need to wrap pymalloc calls in goofy little
routines special-casing 0.  Note that it's virtually impossible to meet
the doc's promise that malloc(0) will never return NULL; this makes a
best effort, but not an insane effort.  The code does promise that
realloc(not-NULL, 0) will never return NULL (malloc(0) is much harder).

_PyMalloc_Realloc:  Changed to take over all requests for 0 bytes, and
rearranged to be a little quicker in expected cases.

All over the place:  when resorting to the platform allocator, call
free/malloc/realloc directly, without indirecting thru macros.  This
should avoid needing a nightmarish pile of #ifdef-ery if PYMALLOC_DEBUG
is changed so that pymalloc takes over all Py(Mem, Object} memory
operations (which would add useful debugging info to PyMem_xyz
allocations too).

Fred Drake 243ea71669 Correct the descriptions of the PyObject_As*Buffer() return values.

Andrew M. Kuchling 3a52ff6df4 Add empty section for bool 2002-04-03 22:44:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 77f6a65eb0 Add the 'bool' type and its values 'False' and 'True', as described in
PEP 285.  Everything described in the PEP is here, and there is even
some documentation.  I had to fix 12 unit tests; all but one of these
were printing Boolean outcomes that changed from 0/1 to False/True.
(The exception is test_unicode.py, which did a type(x) == type(y)
style comparison.  I could've fixed that with a single line using
issubtype(x, type(y)), but instead chose to be explicit about those
places where a bool is expected.

Still to do: perhaps more documentation; change standard library
modules to return False/True from predicates.

Jack Jansen e9c0358bf4 e macresource.need() to open the W resource file in the application init
code (if it isn't open already).

PythonIDE still opens the resource file "manually" because it also uses
presence of the CURS resource to determine whether it needs to adjust
sys.path.

Mark Hammond e7fefbf68d Fix bugs:
457466: popenx() argument mangling hangs python
 226766: popen('python -c"...."') tends to hang

Fixes argument quoting in w9xpopen.exe for Windows 9x.  w9xpopen.exe
also never attempts to display a MessageBox when not executed
interactively.

Added test_popen() test.  This test currently just executes
"python -c ..." as a child process, and checks that the expected
arguments were all recieved correctly by the child process.  This
test succeeds for me on Win9x, win2k and Linux, and I hope it does
for other popen supported platforms too :)

Jeremy Hylton e604875b81 Restore a minimal definition of execution frame, since other parts of
the manual refer to it.

XXX Not sure that it belongs in this section, or that the concept is
particularly important for writing documentation.  Perhaps references
to the frame should be removed entirely.
