The two are semantically equivalent, but the first triggered a compiler
warning about an unused variable. Note, the preceding steps had already
accessed and decreffed the variable so the reference counts were fine.
parameter being either four or five. Currently, compile.c does not
generate calls with a parameter higher than three.
May have to be reverted if the second alpha or beta shakes out some
other tool generating this op code with a parameter of four or five.
Replaced groups of pushes and pops with indexed access to the stack and
a single adjustment (if needed) to the stacklevel.
Avoids scores of unnecessary increments and decrements to the stackpointer.
Removes unnecessary sequential dependencies so that the compiler has more
freedom for optimizations. Frees the processor for more parallel and
pipelined execution by using mostly read-only access and having few pointer
adjustments just prior to a read or write.
This fixes the problem on Windows - that's the only system where I can
test it.
It leaves sys.argv alone and only changes sys.path[0] to an absolute
pathname.
A variety of changes from Michael Hudson to get the compiler working
with 2.3. The primary change is the handling of SET_LINENO:
# The set_lineno() function and the explicit emit() calls for
# SET_LINENO below are only used to generate the line number table.
# As of Python 2.3, the interpreter does not have a SET_LINENO
# instruction. pyassem treats SET_LINENO opcodes as a special case.
A few other small changes:
- Remove unused code from pycodegen and pyassem.
- Fix error handling in parsermodule. When PyParser_SimplerParseString()
fails, it sets an exception with detailed info. The parsermodule
was clobbering that exception and replacing it was a generic
"could not parse string" exception. Keep the original exception.
I can't test this on the snake farm (no aix box is working).
This change works for the submitter seems correct.
Can anybody test this on 32- and 64- bit AIX?
Initialize the small integers and __builtins__ in startup.
This removes some if conditions.
Change XDECREF to DECREF for values which shouldn't be NULL.
- new import hooks in import.c, exposed in the sys module
- new module called 'zipimport'
- various changes to allow bootstrapping from zip files
I hope I didn't break the Windows build (or anything else for that
matter), but then again, it's been sitting on sf long enough...
Regarding the latest discussions on python-dev: zipimport sets
pkg.__path__ as specified in PEP 273, and likewise, sys.path item such as
/path/to/Archive.zip/subdir/ are supported again.
Obtain cleaner coding and a system wide
performance boost by using the fast, pre-parsed
PyArg_Unpack function instead of PyArg_ParseTuple
function which is driven by a format string.

supported as the second argument. This has the same meaning as
for isinstance(), i.e. issubclass(X, (A, B)) is equivalent
to issubclass(X, A) or issubclass(X, B). Compared to isinstance(),
this patch does not search the tuple recursively for classes, i.e.
any entry in the tuple that is not a class, will result in a
TypeError.
This closes SF patch #649608.
Py_Init crash". refchain cannot be cleared because objects can live across
Py_Finalize() and Py_Initialize() if they are kept alive by circular
references.
dialogs are now stored in Mac/Lib, and loaded on demand through macresource.
Not only does this simplify a MacPython based on Apple's Python, but
it also makes Mac error codes come out symbolically when running command
line python (if you have Mac/Lib in your path).
The resource files are copied from Mac/Resources. The old ones will disappear
after the OS9 build procedure has been adjusted.
sys.getwindowsversion() on Windows (new enahanced Tim-proof <wink>
