Andrew M. Kuchling c867f74a10 Change expected message for ValueError, fixing bug #126400 2000-12-20 00:55:46 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 4d192b37ec Add test case for error message raised by bad % format character
(Oh, look, it adds another little utility function for testing)

Tim Peters a3a3a030af Fox for SF bug #123859: %[duxXo] long formats inconsistent. 2000-11-30 05:22:44 +00:00
Tim Peters 38fd5b6413 Derived from Martin's SF patch 110609: support unbounded ints in %d,i,u,x,X,o formats.
Note a curious extension to the std C rules:  x, X and o formatting can never produce
a sign character in C, so the '+' and ' ' flags are meaningless for them.  But
unbounded ints *can* produce a sign character under these conversions (no fixed-
width bitstring is wide enough to hold all negative values in 2's-comp form).  So
these flags become meaningful in Python when formatting a Python long which is too
big to fit in a C long.  This required shuffling around existing code, which hacked
x and X conversions to death when both the '#' and '0' flags were specified:  the
hacks weren't strong enough to deal with the simultaneous possibility of the ' ' or
'+' flags too, since signs were always meaningless before for x and X conversions.
Isomorphic shuffling was required in unicodeobject.c.
Also added dozens of non-trivial new unbounded-int test cases to test_format.py.

New test for huge formatting strings (these could cause core
dumps in previous versions).
