dictview_repr(): Use a Py_ReprEnter() / Py_ReprLeave() pair to check
for recursion, and produce "..." if so.
test_recursive_repr(): Check for the string rather than a
RecursionError. (Test cannot be any tighter as contents are
implementation-dependent.)
test_deeply_nested_repr(): Add new test, replacing the original
test_recursive_repr(). It checks that a RecursionError is raised in
the case of a non-recursive but deeply nested structure. (Very
similar to what test_repr_deep() in test/test_dict.py does for a
normal dict.)
OrderedDictTests: Add new test case, to test behavior on OrderedDict
instances containing their own values() or items().
I have compared output between pre- and post-patch runs of these tests
to make sure there's nothing missing and nothing broken, on both
Windows and Linux. The only differences I found were actually tests
that were previously *not* run.
and .keys(), .items(), .values() return dict views.
The dict views aren't fully functional yet; in particular, they can't
be compared to sets yet. but they are useful as "iterator wells".
There are still 27 failing unit tests; I expect that many of these
have fairly trivial fixes, but there are so many, I could use help.
