discussion on python-dev. 'from mod import *' is still banned except
at the module level.
Fix value for special NOOPT entry in symtable. Initialze to 0 instead
of None, so that later uses of PyInt_AS_LONG() are valid. (Bug
reported by Donn Cave.)
replace local REPR macros with PyObject_REPR in object.h
internal states. Put the old .seed() (which could only get at about
the square root of the # of possibilities) under the new name .whseed(),
for bit-level compatibility with older versions. This occurred to me
while reviewing effbot's book (he found himself stumbling over .seed()
more than once there ...).
I'm now checking it in. I need to write some documentation for it,
but I don't have time right now. Still, I wanted to get this into
2.1a2.
# Overview:
#
# This file implements the minimal SMTP protocol as defined in RFC 821. It
# has a hierarchy of classes which implement the backend functionality for the
# smtpd. A number of classes are provided:
#
# SMTPServer - the base class for the backend. Raises an UnimplementedError
# if you try to use it.
#
# DebuggingServer - simply prints each message it receives on stdout.
#
# PureProxy - Proxies all messages to a real smtpd which does final
# delivery. One known problem with this class is that it doesn't handle
# SMTP errors from the backend server at all. This should be fixed
# (contributions are welcome!).
#
# MailmanProxy - An experimental hack to work with GNU Mailman
# <www.list.org>. Using this server as your real incoming smtpd, your
# mailhost will automatically recognize and accept mail destined to Mailman
# lists when those lists are created. Every message not destined for a list
# gets forwarded to a real backend smtpd, as with PureProxy. Again, errors
# are not handled correctly yet.
- All constructors grow an optional argument `factory' which is a
callable used when new message instances are created by the next()
methods. Defaults to the rfc822.Message class.
- A new subclass of UnixMailbox is added, called PortableUnixMailbox.
It's identical to UnixMailbox, but uses a more portable test for
From_ delimiter lines. With PortableUnixMailbox, any line that
starts with "From " is considered a delimiter (this should really
check for two newlines before the F, but it doesn't.
* Removed func_hash and func_compare, so they can be treated as immutable
content-less objects (address hash and comparison)
* Added tests to that affect to test_funcattrs (also testing func_code
is writable)
* Reverse meaning of tests in test_opcodes which checked identical code

test doesn't catch them.)

use in regression tests where the module might get imported more than once
got broken). Also added new method .jumpahead(N). This finally gives us
a semi-decent answer to how Python's RNGs can be used safely and efficiently
in multithreaded programs (although it requires the user to use the new
machinery!).
functionality of, whrandom.py. Also closes all the "XXX" todos in
random.py. New frequently-requested functions/methods getstate() and
setstate(). All exported functions are now bound methods of a hidden
instance. Killed all unintended exports. Updated the docs.
FRED: The more I fiddle the docs, the less I understand the exact
intended use of the \var, \code, \method tags. Please review critically.
GUIDO: See email. I updated NEWS as if whrandom were deprecated; I
think it should be.

package load time; it's simpler, faster, smaller, and adds support for
Mozilla and Links. Interpretation of the BROWSER variable now works
and is documented. The open_new entry point and methods are marked
"deprecated; may be removed in 2.1".

- Only test dbhash if bsddb can be imported. (Wonder if there are
more like this?)
pythonrun.c: In Py_Finalize, don't reset the initialized flag until after
the exit funcs have run.
atexit.py: in _run_exitfuncs, mutate the list of pending calls in a
threadsafe way. This wasn't a contributor to bug 128475, it just burned
my eyeballs when looking at that bug.

__all__ attributes will be added to other modules without first submitting
a patch, just adding the necessary line to the test script to verify
more-or-less correct implementation.
created by Andrew's setup.py script, *if* we're actually running from
the build directory. (The test for that: whether the sys.path[-1]
ends in "/Modules".)
This has one disadvantage: it imports a fair amount of code from the
distutils package, just in order to be able to calculate the correct
pathname. See if I care. :-)
(I realize that I didn't really test this, because all the tests
succeed, so verify() never raised an AssertionError -- but the test
suite still succeeds, so I'm not too worried.)
This patch adds support for Cygwin to util.get_platform(). A Cygwin
specific case is needed due to the format of Cygwin's uname command,
which contains '/' characters.

I agree, so am fixing this.
for SocketServer.py (inherited by TCPServer)
Luke wrote:
The socketserver code, with a little bit of tweaking, can be made
sufficiently general to service "requests" of any kind, not just by sockets.
The BaseServer class was created, for example, to poll a table in a MYSQL
database every 2 seconds. each entry in the table can be allocated a
Handler which deals with the entry.
With this patch, using BaseServer and ThreadedServer classes, the creation
of the server that reads and handles MySQL table entries instead of a
socket was utterly trivial: about 50 lines of python code.
You may consider this code to be utterly useless [why would anyone else
want to do anything like this???] - you are entitled to your opinion. if you
think so, then think of this: have you considered how to cleanly add SSL to
the TCPSocketServer? What about using shared memory as the
communications mechanism for a server, instead of sockets? What about
communication using files?
The SocketServer code is extremely good every useful. it's just that as it
stands, it is tied to sockets, which is not as useful.
I heartily approve of this idea.

suite will also perform its tests in optimization mode.

A new C API PyObject_Unicode() is also provided.

sys.prefix + 'config/Makefile'. When building Python for the first
time, these files aren't there, so the files from the build tree have
to be used instead; this file adds an entry point for specifying that
the build tree files should be used. (Perhaps 'set_python_build' should
should be preceded with an underscore?)
__getattr__() method, which clearly (like the other methods) was
intended to pass the __getattr__() call on to the self.err object,
mistakenly returned getattr(self, self.err) rather than
getattr(self.err, attr). Since self.err is not a string, this always
raises a TypeError. Apparently that doesn't bother for the one
attribute for which __getattr__() is actually called ('__coerce__'),
but it broke the rich comparisons stuff that I'm trying to get into
shape, so I'm fixing this now. (I could also simply remove the
__getattr__() method, but fixing it seems more in the spirit of what
the ComparableException class is trying to do.)
for done[n] can be integers as well as strings, but the code
concatenates them with strings (fixed by adding a str()) and calls
string.strip() on them (fixed by rearranging the logic)

was only called on Modules/Makefile, which contains no integer-valued
variables.)

This is slightly controversial, but after reading the argumentation in
the bug tracker for and against, I believe this is the right solution.
Let me know if it breaks for you, and how.

This is based on a patch by Darrel Gallion. I'm not 100%
sure about this fix, but I haven't managed to come up with
any test case it cannot handle...
Ping apparently doesn't check in Accepted patches, so I'm doing this

Header
Dougfort's comments: httplib does not include ':port ' in the HTTP 1.1
'Host:' header. This causes problems if the server is not listening
on Port 80. The test case I use is the login to /manage under Zope,
with Zope listening on port 8080. Zope returns a <frameset> with the
<frame> source URLs lacking the :8080.
-- added some more docstrings
-- fixed typo in scanner class (#125531)
-- the multiline flag (?m) should't affect the \Z operator (#127259)
-- fixed non-greedy backtracking bug (#123769, #127259)
-- added sre.DEBUG flag (currently dumps the parsed pattern structure)
-- fixed a couple of glitches in groupdict (the #126587 memory leak
had already been fixed by AMK)
appends to list of filters instead of inserting at the front. This
is useful to add a filter with a lower priority than -W options.
- Cosmetic improvements to a docstring and an error message.
The ASCII-art diagram at the top of httplib contains a backslash at
the end of a line, which causes Python to remove the newline. This
one-character patch adds a space after the backslash so it will
appear at the end of the line in the docstring as intended.
pid across threads (but in that case, it's still the same process, and so
still sharing the "template" cache in tempfile.py). Repaired that, and
added a new std test.
On Linux, someone please run that standalone with more files and/or more
threads; e.g.,
python lib/test/test_threadedtempfile.py -f 1000 -t 10
to run with 10 threads each creating (and deleting) 1000 temp files.
Tested on Windows. Should be tested on Linux. Should also be
tested on some platform without threads (I simulated that by
making the "import thread" fail, but that's not the same as
actually doing it!).
with spaces in filename.
I changed the module to use string methods instead of the string
module. Also, instead of stripping the last character of the filename
(assuming this is the linefeed), I strip trailing whitespace (assuming
creating files with trailing whitespace in their name cannot possibly
be a wise idea).
(Note that I believe that /F's "workaround for broken uuencoders" is
no longer needed since the recent fix to binascii.c, but I'll leave it
in since it appears pretty harmless.)

As side-effect of moving the test codec into a new module, the encodings
package codec import mechanism is checked as well.
Wasn't built on Windows; not in config.c either.
Module init function missing DL_EXPORT magic.
test_xreadline output file obviously wrong (started w/ "test_xrl").
test program very unclear about what was expected.
