but apparently he had to go to school, so I am checking it in for him.
This makes PyRun_HandleSystemExit() a static instead, called
handle_system_exit(), and let it use the current exception rather than
passing in an exception. This slightly simplifies the code.
Change 1: Not all 'modules' in sys.modules have a
sensible __file__ attribute. Some of our java package
can have the __file__ attribute set to None.
Change 2: In jython we have the jython license file in
<root> and the CPython license file in <root>/Lib. By
reversing the search sequence jython will find and
show the jython license file before the CPython file.
Closes SF patch #405853.
Add new opcodes LOAD_CLOSURE, LOAD_DEREF, STORE_DEREF, MAKE_CLOSURE to
docs for dis module.
Add docs for new function and code members in Sec. 3 of ref manual.
They're present regardless of whether nested scopes are used.
Remove description of default argument hack from Sec. 7 of the ref
manual and refer the reader to the appendix.
(minidom in particular); it was using PyDOM which is now obsolete.
Only write the output file on success -- this avoids updating the timestamp
on the file on failure, which confuses "make".
implements a SAX XMLReader interface instead of the old Builder interface
used with PyDOM (now obsolete).
This only depends on the standard library, not PyXML.
#403666. Specifically,
In codestr, force `c' to be global. It's unclear what the semantics
should be for a code object compiled at module scope, but bound and
run in a function. In CPython, `c' is global (by accident?) while in
Jython, `c' is local. The intent of the test clearly is to make `c'
global, so let's be explicit about it.
Jython also does not have a __builtins__ name in the module's
namespace, so we use a more portable alternative (though I'm not sure
why the test requires "__builtins__" in the g namespace).
Finally, skip the new.code() test if the new module doesn't have a
`code' attribute. Jython will never have this.
Font adjustment to improve viewing in Windows (the default monospaced font,
Courier New, seems to have no reasonable size in IE!)
Improve error handling. Try very hard to distinguish between failure to
find a module and failure during the module importing process.
Improve reloading behaviour. (Still needs some work.)
Add '.' to sys.path when running as a script at the command-line.
Don't automatically assume '-g' based on the platform. We'll just have
the batch file supply -g.
createAttributeNS(), use the parallel setAttributeNode() or
setAttributeNodeNS() to add the node to the document -- do not assume
that setAttributeNode() will operate properly for both.
Update docstring and library reference section on 'sys' module.
New API PyErr_Display, just for displaying errors, called by excepthook.
Uncaught exceptions now call sys.excepthook; if that fails, we fall back
to calling PyErr_Display directly.
Also comes with sys.__excepthook__ and sys.__displayhook__.
Factor description of import errors into DocImportError.__str__.
Add "docother" and "fail" methods to Doc class.
Factor formatting of constants into "docother".
Increase max string repr limit to 100 characters.
Factor page generation into HTMLDoc.page.
Handle aliasing of names (objects appearing under an attribute
name different from their intrinsic __name__) by passing the
attribute name into each doc* method.
Handle methods at top level of modules (e.g. in random).
Try to do reloading efficiently.
Important fixes still to do:
Module reloading is broken by the unfortunate property that
failed imports leave an incomplete module in sys. Still
need to think of a good solution.
Can't document modules in the current directory, due to the
other unfortunate property that sys.path gets '.' when
you run 'python' but it gets the script directory when
you run a script. Need to ponder to find a solution.
The synopsis() routine does not work on .so modules.
Aliases cause duplicate copies of documentation to appear.
This is easy to fix, just more work.
Classes appear as their intrinsic name, not their attribute name,
in the class hierarchy. This should be fixed.
Inherited methods should be listed in class descriptions.
