Skip Montanaro c7ba0c4c24 added description of StringTypes object 2001-09-29 13:49:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 583061a10f Fix up whitespace in <args> elements; reduce sequences of consecutive
whitespace characters to a single space.
Small changes elsewhere, mostly to clean up the code a little.

Fred Drake 2b05ca3454 Minor markup improvement. 2001-09-29 05:01:59 +00:00
Fred Drake d157237d51 For Python 2.2, do not use __getattr__(), only use computed properties.
This is probably a little bit faster, but mostly is just cleaner code.
The old-style support is still used for Python versions < 2.2 so this
source file can be shared with PyXML.

Fred Drake 787fd8cdeb _dispatch(): Do no re-define the resolve_dotted_atttribute() function
every time this gets called; move it out as a global helper function.
    Simplify the call to the _dispatch() method of the registered instance.

Tim Peters 599db7de63 The list.sort() docs require a function that returns -1, 0 or +1. That's
never been true, and in particular implies cmp() can't be used(!).  Get
closer to the truth.

Guido van Rossum 84675acb49 The changes to ternary_op could cause a core dump. Fix this, and
rewrite the code a bit to avoid calling the same slot more than once.

Guido van Rossum bb29b9c952 Clarify the warning about the relative dates of Setup.dist and Setup;
Jeremy had seen the warning but not realized what he should do about
it.  Add the hint "Usually, copying Setup.dist to Setup will work."
2001-09-29 00:42:19 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 751c4c864c Add a few ``__dynamic__ = 0'' lines in classes that need to preserve
staticness when __dynamic__ = 1 becomes the default:

- Some classes which are used to test the difference between static
  and dynamic.

- Subclasses of complex: complex uses old-style numbers and the slot
  wrappers used by dynamic classes only support new-style numbers.
  (Ideally, the complex type should be fixed, but that looks like a
  labor-intensive job.)
2001-09-29 00:40:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4bb1e36eec It's a fact: for binary operators, *under certain circumstances*,
__rop__ now takes precendence over __op__.  Those circumstances are:

  - Both arguments are new-style classes
  - Both arguments are new-style numbers
  - Their implementation slots for tp_op differ
  - Their types differ
  - The right argument's type is a subtype of the left argument's type

Also did this for the ternary operator (pow) -- only the binary case
is dealt with properly though, since __rpow__ is not supported anyway.
2001-09-28 23:49:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9bea3abf0d Ouch. The wrapper for __rpow__ was the same as for __pow__, resulting
in bizarre outcomes.  Test forthcoming.

Fred Drake 7988e0249c Move XML-RPC-related docs to the "Internet Protocols" chapter.
Add entry for the SimpleXMLRPCServer module.
2001-09-28 22:03:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 06c61b14fe Add entry for the SimpleXMLRPCServer module. 2001-09-28 22:02:49 +00:00
Fred Drake e486e0d066 Preliminary documentation for the SimpleXMLRPCServer module. 2001-09-28 22:02:21 +00:00
Tim Peters abf925f6bf Post-release fiddling (prep for 2.2b1). 2001-09-28 21:53:42 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling d4707e3b62 Minor additions and rewrites.
Bump version number.
2001-09-28 20:46:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 946f7b1b24 Update the xml.dom.minidom tests to cover the DOM-compliant parts of the
NodeList interface.
2001-09-28 20:31:50 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 76d62b4e79 Install the new compiler and email packages 2001-09-28 20:29:15 +00:00
Fred Drake 575712eaca Tighten up the new NodeList implementation.
Clean up a little; do not create an alias that is only used once, or store
attributes with constant values in an instance.
2001-09-28 20:25:45 +00:00
Fred Drake 88a56857f6 Remove an infelicitous space. 2001-09-28 20:16:30 +00:00
Tim Peters 9390cc15da regrtest's -g option stopped working, during the changes to improve
error-reporting for the classic compare-expected-output tests.
Curiously, the bug consisted of not simplifying the logic enough!
2001-09-28 20:14:46 +00:00
Fred Drake b2ad1c8b4d Reflect recent refinements of the regression testing framework. 2001-09-28 20:05:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e296cedef9 Be more rigorous about making pathnames absolute, to address SF bug
#424002.

Refactor init_path_from_argv0() and rename to copy_absolute(); add
absolutize() which does the same in-place.

Clean up whitespace (leading tabs -> spaces, delete trailing
spaces/tabs).
2001-09-28 20:00:29 +00:00
Fred Drake 746fe0fae5 Clean up circular references in the Weak*Dictionary classes; this avoids
depending on the cycle detector code in the library implementation.
This is a *slightly* different patch than SF patch #417795, but takes
the same approach.  (This version avoids calling the __len__() method of
the dict in the remove() functions.)
This closes SF patch #417795.
2001-09-28 19:01:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 43b9a086bf Reorder Still To Do items (highest priority on top), add one. 2001-09-28 18:19:21 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8b9def3aac Add complex to the dispatch tables, to avoid going through the whole
rigmarole of __reduce__.
2001-09-28 18:16:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6cef6d5d62 Changes to copy() and deepcopy() in copy.py to support __reduce__ as a
fallback for objects that are neither supported by our dispatch table
nor have a __copy__ or __deepcopy__ method.

Changes to _reduce() in copy_reg.py to support reducing objects that
don't have a __dict__ -- copy.copy(complex()) now invokes _reduce().

Add tests for copy.copy() and copy.deepcopy() to test_regrtest.py.

Fred Drake 19405a4a2a Removed files no longer needed. 2001-09-28 17:22:35 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 3c1b4a40dc PY_RELEASE_SERIAL => 4
PY_VERSION => "2.2a4+"
2001-09-28 17:15:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 3c171d1b9f Convert to string methods.
For the real document element, make sure the prolog is migrated into
the document element so it isn't left stranded.

Make fixup_trailing_whitespace() whitespace do what was really intended.

Add the *desc environments used in the C API manual to the list of
things that can exist at the paragraph level so they don't get wrapped
in <para>...</para>.
2001-09-28 17:14:35 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 647d5e8f4a Fixed a minor typo. 2001-09-28 17:01:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 3c10c68c0e Use consistent version annotations instead of something ad hoc. 2001-09-28 16:57:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 0f9bfd3dda Convert most uses of the string module to string methods.
(string.join() lives!)
2001-09-28 16:26:13 +00:00
Fred Drake bbf7a407e8 Added note about non-support of UNC paths on Windows.
This fixes SF bug #465447.
2001-09-28 16:14:18 +00:00
Fred Drake b387860c70 State that encode() and encodestring() append a newline to the input data
if it does not already end with a newline.
This fixes SF bug #463330.
2001-09-28 16:01:46 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ce608b02a6 Fix SF bug 419062: building pbs on AIX 4.3.2
Apply patch from "china@thewrittenword.com" to put the correct
location for ld_so_aix in BLDSHARED.
2001-09-28 15:59:38 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 86fbaf8e67 Merged changes from 22a4 branch. 2001-09-28 15:26:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 3ac6a09eed For Python 2.2 and newer, actually support the full NodeList interface by
subclassing list to add the length and item() attributes.
2001-09-28 04:33:06 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 2ed6bf87c9 Merge branch changes (coercion, rich comparisons) into trunk. 2001-09-27 20:30:07 +00:00
Fred Drake 33f4d6d1db Add entries for the email and compiler packages. 2001-09-27 20:11:07 +00:00

Fred Drake d443d8cc00 Added dependencies for the compiler and email packages.
(Migrate to branch, along with new files compiler.tex and asttable.tex.)
2001-09-27 20:08:20 +00:00
Fred Drake e2f9917f9f Migrate the compiler documentation from the Tools/compiler/doc/ directory.
Changes made to make it work in the new location.
2001-09-27 20:06:07 +00:00
Fred Drake 876389e5d8 Do not distinguish \refmodule from \module in the generated output;
whether or not a link will be generated will depend on the link database.
Add a couple of explanatory comments for one of the stranger constructs
(giving input an empty name).
2001-09-27 17:01:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 9213b7a961 Re-write <ulink> elements as described in the conversion spec. 2001-09-27 16:52:22 +00:00
Fred Drake 5a28bfbbc7 Change the sense of a test in how the profiler interprets exception events.
This should fix a bug in how time is allocated during exception propogation
(esp. in the presence of finally clauses).
2001-09-27 16:28:42 +00:00
Tim Peters 30bff63958 Bump Windows build numbers for 2.2a4; installer changes were done earlier. 2001-09-27 16:28:15 +00:00
Fred Drake baacc08ead Turn \input, \include, and \verbatiminput into XInclude elements instead
of something ad-hoc.
2001-09-27 15:49:23 +00:00
