Guido van Rossum 3d548717f5 Fix by Sjoerd for a package related bug: If you have a non-empy
__init__.py it isn't read.  (Sjoerd just came up with this, so it's
not heavily tested.)

Other (yet unsolved) package problems noted by Sjoerd:

- If you have a package and a module inside that or another package
  with the same name, module caching doesn't work properly since the
  key is the base name of the module/package.
- The only entry that is returned when you readmodule a package is a
  __path__ whose value is a list which confuses certain class browsers
  that I wrote.  (Hm, this could be construed as a feature.)

Guido van Rossum db23d3dbf7 Patch by Per Cederqvist:
I've found two places where smtplib.py sends an extra trailing space
on command lines to the SMTP server.  I don't know if this ever causes
any problems, but I'd prefer to be on the safe side.  The enclosed
patch removes the extra space.

Guido van Rossum cf09a3924f Skip Montanaro:
I guess in 1.5.2 a new module, whichdb, was added that attempts to
divine the nature of a database file.  This module doesn't know anything
about Berkeley DB v2 files.  In v2, Sleepycat added a 12-byte null pad
in front of the old magic numbers (at least for hash and btree files).
I've been using v2 for awhile and upgrading to 1.5.2 broke all my
anydbm.open calls. I believe the following patch corrects the problem.

Guido van Rossum df9f7a3e52 Tim Peters: Taught it more "real Python" rules without slowing it
appreciably.  Triple-quoted strings no longer confuse it, nor nested
classes or defs, nor comments starting in column 1.  Chews thru
Tkinter.py in < 3 seconds for me; doctest.py no longer confuses it; no
longer missing methods in PyShell.py; etc.  Also captures defs
starting in column 1 now, but ignores them; an interface should be
added so that IDLE's class browser can show the top-level functions
too.

Greg Ward 9a33707be7 Hacked 'set_final_options()' to set (hopefully) appropriate values for
'install_site_lib' and install_site_platlib' on non-POSIX platforms.

patches.  Also added extensive comments bitching about the inadequacy of
the current model, both under POSIX and NT (and probably other) systems.

Guido van Rossum ad380551f6 Experimental speedup patch by Tim Peters (please test!):
It wasn't hard to speed pyclbr by a factor of 3, and I'll attach an
experimental patch for that (experimental because barely tested).  Uncomment
the new "String" stuff and it will deal with strings correctly (pyclbr
currently ignores the possibility), but that slows it down a lot.  Still
faster in the end than current pyclbr, but-- frankly --I'd rather have the
dramatic speedup!

running children which also have the socket open. The following one-liner
fixes this.

Greg Ward 884df454b2 The 'copy_file()' and 'copy_tree()' functions in util.py now have
meaningful return values: respectively, whether the copy was done, and
the list of files that were copied.  This meant some trivial changes in
core.py as well: the Command methods that mirror 'copy_file()' and
'copy_tree()' have to pass on their return values.

Greg Ward 0f72695da3 Rearranged things so that compilation of .py files is the responsibility
of the 'install_py' command rather than 'build_py'.  Obviously, this
meant that the 'build_py' and 'install_py' modules had to change; less
obviously, so did 'install' and 'build', since these higher-level
commands must make options available to control the lower-level
commands, and some compilation-related options had to migrate with the
code.

Guido van Rossum 95bdd0b604 Two different changes.
1. Jack Jansen reports that on the Mac, the time may be negative, and
solves this by adding a write32u() function that writes an unsigned

0x100000000L.

Guido van Rossum 296e14301a Changes by Per Cederquist and The Dragon.
Per writes:

"""
The application where Signum Support uses smtplib needs to be able to
report good error messages to the user when sending email fails.  To
help in diagnosing problems it is useful to be able to report the
entire message sent by the server, not only the SMTP error code of the
offending command.

A lot of the functions in sendmail.py unfortunately discards the
message, leaving only the code.  The enclosed patch fixes that
problem.

The enclosed patch also introduces a base class for exceptions that
include an SMTP error code and error message, and make the code and
message available on separate attributes, so that surrounding code can
deal with them in whatever way it sees fit.  I've also added some
documentation to the exception classes.

The constructor will now raise an exception if it cannot connect to
the SMTP server.

The data() method will raise an SMTPDataError if it doesn't receive
the expected 354 code in the middle of the exchange.

According to section 5.2.10 of RFC 1123 a smtp client must accept "any
text, including no text at all" after the error code.  If the response
of a HELO command contains no text self.helo_resp will be set to the
empty string ("").  The patch fixes the test in the sendmail() method
so that helo_resp is tested against None; if it has the empty string
as value the sendmail() method would invoke the helo() method again.

The code no longer accepts a -1 reply from the ehlo() method in
sendmail().

[Text about removing SMTPRecipientsRefused deleted --GvR]
"""

and also:

"""
smtplib.py appends an extra blank line to the outgoing mail if the
`msg' argument to the sendmail method already contains a trailing
newline.  This patch should fix the problem.
"""

The Dragon writes:

"""
	Mostly I just re-added the SMTPRecipientsRefused exception
(the exeption object now has the appropriate info in it ) [Per had
removed this in his patch --GvR] and tweaked the behavior of the
sendmail method whence it throws the newly added SMTPHeloException (it
was closing the connection, which it shouldn't.  whatever catches the
exception should do that. )

	I pondered the change of the return values to tuples all around,
and after some thinking I decided that regularizing the return values was
too much of the Right Thing (tm) to not do.

	My one concern is that code expecting an integer & getting a tuple
may fail silently.

(i.e. if it's doing :

      x.somemethod() >= 400:
expecting an integer, the expression will always be true if it gets a
tuple instead. )

	However, most smtplib code I've seen only really uses the
sendmail() method, so this wouldn't bother it.  Usually code I've seen
that calls the other methods usually only calls helo() and ehlo() for
doing ESMTP, a feature which was not in the smtplib included with 1.5.1,
and thus I would think not much code uses it yet.

Guido van Rossum 630a9a6894 Fix the tests now that splitdrive() no longer treats UNC paths special.
(Some tests converted to splitunc() tests.)
1999-04-06 19:38:18 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f3c695c467 Withdraw the UNC support from splitdrive(). Instead, a new function
splitunc() parses UNC paths.  The contributor of the UNC parsing in
splitdrive() doesn't like it, but I haven't heard a good reason to
keep it, and it causes some problems.  (I think there's a
philosophical problem -- to me, the split*() functions are purely
syntactical, and the fact that \\foo is not a valid path doesn't mean
that it shouldn't be considered an absolute path.)

Also (quite separately, but strangely related to the philosophical
issue above) fix abspath() so that if win32api exists, it doesn't fail
when the path doesn't actually exist -- if GetFullPathName() fails,
fall back on the old strategy (join with getcwd() if neccessary, and
then use normpath()).

Andrew M. Kuchling 605ebddbea Added a simple test suite for gzip. It simply opens a temp file,
writes a chunk of compressed data, closes it, writes another chunk, and
reads the contents back to verify that they are the same.
1999-03-25 21:50:27 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling f4f119c055 Based on a suggestion from bruce@hams.com, make a trivial change to
allow using the 'a' flag as a mode for opening a GzipFile.  gzip
files, surprisingly enough, can be concatenated and then decompressed;
the effect is to concatenate the two chunks of data.

If we support it on writing, it should also be supported on reading.
This *wasn't* trivial, and required rearranging the code in the
reading path, particularly the _read() method.

Raise IOError instead of RuntimeError in two cases, 'Not a gzipped file'
and 'Unknown compression method'

If a filename on Windows starts with \\, it is converted to a URL

add the (empty) netloc with accompanying slashes if the path in

Guido van Rossum a2e18051b7 Delete non-standard-conforming code in urljoin() that would use the
netloc from the base url as the default netloc for the resulting url
even if the schemes differ.

Once upon a time, when the web was wild, this was a valuable hack
because some people had a URL referencing an ftp server colocated with
an http server without having the host in the ftp URL (so they could
replicate it or change the hostname easily).

More recently, after the file: scheme got added back to the list of
schemes that accept a netloc, it turns out that this caused weirdness
when joining an http: URL with a file: URL -- the resulting file: URL
would always inherit the host from the http: URL because the file:
scheme supports a netloc but in practice never has one.

There are two reasons to get rid of the old, once-valuable hack,
instead of removing the file: scheme from the uses_netloc list.  One,
the RFC says that file: uses the netloc syntax, and does not endorse
the old hack.  Two, neither netscape 4.5 nor IE 4.0 support the old
hack.

Guido van Rossum eb354b31e5 Bug reported by Jim Robinson:
An attempt to execute grid_slaves with arguments (0,0) results in
*all* of the slaves being returned, not just the slave associated with
row 0, column 0.  This is because the test for arguments in the method
does not test to see if row (and column) does not equal None, but
rather just whether is evaluates to non-false.  A value of 0 fails
this test.

	  break; the change below treats an empty encoding value the same
	  as the other types that do not need decoding

	o SubMessage.getbodytext was missing the decode argument; the
	  change below adds it; I also made it unconditionally return
	  the raw text if decoding was not desired, because my own
	  routines needed that (and it was easier than rewriting my
	  own routines ;-)

A note about the previous checkin: I believe it's correct, but I found
something strange: the file Lib/test/audiotest.au in the Python

caused by some conversion program that produced this .au file; I just
found it on a website.

Guido van Rossum 98c17b3aee Marc-Andre Lemburg notes about statparse():
"""
The message ID is returned lowercased and there is no way to access
the original ID the server sent. Now at least some news servers
are very picky about the case of the ID and return errors when
fetching articles with mixed case given a lowercased version
of the ID.

The solution is simple: remove the string.lower() call.
"""

(I might add that the lowercasing was probably introduced as a result
of sloppy copy-and-paste coding; there's a string.lower in a similar
piece of code a bit higher in the source, that makes more sense --
it's lowercasing the group name.)

Guido van Rossum 33add0a95a Sjoerd Mullender:
File names with "funny" characters get translated wrong by
pathname2url (any variety).  E.g. the (Unix) file "/ufs/sjoerd/#tmp"
gets translated into "/ufs/sjoerd/#tmp" which, when interpreted as a
URL is file "/ufs/sjoerd/" with fragment ID "tmp".

Here's an easy fix.  (An alternative fix would be to change the
various implementations of pathname2url and url2pathname to include
calls to quote and unquote.

[The main problem is with the normal use of URLs:
	url = url2pathname(file)
	transmit url
	url, tag = splittag(url)
	urlopen(url)
]

In addition, this patch fixes some uses of unquote:
- the host part of URLs should be unquoted
- the file path in the FTP URL should be unquoted before it is split
  into components.
- because of the latter, I removed all unquoting from ftpwrapper,
  and moved it to the caller, but that is not essential

Guido van Rossum 6d06094c77 Accept a non-list sequence for the long options (request by Jack Jansen).
Because it might be a common mistake to pass a single string, this
situation is treated separately.

Since we were making a copy of the longopts list anyway, we now use
the list() function -- this made it necessary to change all uses of
the local variable (and argument) 'list' to something more meaningful,
i.e., 'opts'.

Also added docstrings (copied from the library manual) and removed the
(now redundant) module comments.

Guido van Rossum dce3d5502e The TemporaryFile() function has a security leak -- because the
filenames generated are easily predictable, it is possible to trick an
unsuspecting program into overwriting another file by creating a
symbolic link with the predicted name.  Fix this by using the
low-level os.open() function with the O_EXCL flag and mode 0700.  On
non-Unix platforms, presumably there are no symbolic links so the
problem doesn't exist.  The explicit test for Unix (posix, actually)
makes it possible to change the non-Unix logic to work without a
try-except clause.

The mktemp() file is as unsafe as ever.

The FieldStorage constructor calls the read_multi method.  The read_multi

(on the new objects).  The problem is that the 'environ', 'keep_blank_values',
