Christian Heimes 3b718a79af Implemented Martin's suggestion to clear the free lists during the garbage collection of the highest generation. 2008-02-14 12:47:33 +00:00
Christian Heimes 422051a367 Patch #1953
I implemented the function sys._compact_freelists() and C API functions PyInt_/PyFloat_CompactFreeList() to compact the pre-allocated blocks of ints and floats. They allow the user to reduce the memory usage of a Python process that deals with lots of numbers.
The patch also renames sys._cleartypecache to sys._clear_type_cache

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc cab3d98ca1 Ensure that PySet_Add() operates on a newly created frozenset, like PyTuple_SetItem does.
Add PyFrozenSet_Check(), which was not needed before; The list of Py*Set_Check* macros seems to be complete now.

Add missing NEWS entries about all this.

Raymond Hettinger ecdcb58950 Make PySet_Add() work with frozensets.
Works like PyTuple_SetItem() to build-up values in a brand new frozenset.
Also, PyFrozenSet_New() is now guaranteed to produce a distinct new frozenset.

Christian Heimes 74b8e76ec1 Don't repeat yourself
Added the macros PyModule_AddIntMacro and PyModule_AddStringMacro. They shorten PyModule_AddIntConstant(m, "AF_INET", AF_INET) to PyModule_AddIntMacro(m, AF_INET)

Christian Heimes c94e2b5c12 Now that I've learnt about structseq objects I felt like converting sys.float_info to a structseq. It's
readonly and help(sys.float_info) explains the attributes nicely.

Christian Heimes 000a074c95 Modified PyImport_Import and PyImport_ImportModule to always use absolute imports by calling __import__ with an explicit level of 0
Added a new API function PyImport_ImportModuleNoBlock. It solves the problem with dead locks when mixing threads and imports

Guido van Rossum 02de8979cc Patch #1583 by Adam Olsen.
This adds signal.set_wakeup_fd(fd) which sets a file descriptor to
which a zero byte will be written whenever a C exception handler runs.

I added a simple C API as well, PySignal_SetWakeupFd(fd).

Georg Brandl 7c3e79f67f Make "hashable" a glossary entry and clarify docs on __cmp__, __eq__ and __hash__.
I hope the concept of hashability is better understandable now.
Thanks to Tim Hatch for pointing out the flaws here.
