only. Through some mysterious interaction, they would take 9 separate
arguments as well. This misfeature is now disabled (to end a
difference with JPython).
Added 'link_static_lib()' method, and 'archiver' and 'archiver_options'
class attributes to support it.
Added 'link_executable()' method, and 'ld_exec' instance attribute
to support it.
'newer_group()' is now able to handle missing files, so we don't have
to kludge it by catching OSError when calling it.
'object_filenames()' and 'shared_object_filename()' now take 'keep_dir'
flag parameters.
'library_filename()' and 'shared_library_filename()' now respect
a directory component in the library name.
Various comment updates/deletions.
building the dicts used to inform the user about the defined
constants when using the *conf*() APIs.
Thanks to Mark Hammond <mhammond@skippinet.com.au>.
trailing 'L' is appended to the representation,
otherwise not.
All existing call sites are modified to pass true for
addL.
Remove incorrect statement about external use of this
function from elsewhere; it's static!
long_str(): Handler for the tp_str slot in the type object.
Identical to long_repr(), but passes false as the addL
parameter of long_format().
handle = Ctl.as_Resource(ctl)
ctl = Ctl.as_Control(handle)
and similarly for List, Menu, TE. The old handle.as_Control() methods are
still there for backward compatability.
* in import.c, #ifdef out references to dynamic loading based on
HAVE_DYNAMIC_LOADING
* clean out the platform-specific crud from importdl.c.
[ maybe fold this function into import.c and drop the importdl.c file? Greg.]
* change GetDynLoadFunc's "funcname" parameter to "shortname". change
"name" to "fqname" for clarification.
* each GetDynLoadFunc now creates its own funcname value.
WARNING: as I mentioned previously, we may run into an issue with a
missing "_" on some platforms. Testing will show this pretty quickly,
however.
* move pathname munging into dynload_shlib.c
This patch changes the string-based exceptions to class-based
exceptions, so that you can fetch the unknown option as an
attribute. As far as I know, it is backward compatible.
[The new exception class is called GetoptError; the name error is an
alias for compatibility.]
Here's a patch that avoids a warning caused by the "const char* pathname"
declaration for _PyImport_GetDynLoadFunc (in dynload_aix). The "aix_load"
function's 1st arg is prototyped as "char *pathname".
