Guido van Rossum 70d893a6aa Bunchathings:
- initsigs(): Ignore SIGXFZ so writing files beyond the file system
  size limit won't kill us.

- Py_Initialize(): call _Py_ReadyTypes() instead of readying types
  here.

- Py_Initialize(): call _PyImport_FixupExtension() for module
  "extensions".  (SF bug #422004.)
2001-08-16 08:21:42 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ba21a49f9d Add a function _Py_ReadyTypes() which initializes various and sundry
types -- currently Type, List, None and NotImplemented.  To be called
from Py_Initialize() instead of accumulating calls there.

Also rename type(None) to NoneType and type(NotImplemented) to
NotImplementedType -- naming the type identical to the object was
confusing.

Guido van Rossum 82fc51c19c Update to MvL's patch #424475 to avoid returning 2 when tp_compare
returns that.  (This fix is also by MvL; checkin it in because I want
to make more changes here.  I'm still not 100% satisfied -- see
comments attached to the patch.)

Tim Peters 49b253b173 No change, just wanted to record more info in the log: after the last
checkin, the Wise uninstaller *will* delete the Python DLL from the system
directory, but if and only if there wasn't a same-named Python DLL already
in the system directory at the time the installer ran.  That (no same-named
DLL) should be the typical case for most most people (I'm different because
I've run perhaps hundreds of 2.2 installs over the last several weeks).
IOW, the change was worth making.
2001-08-16 02:23:04 +00:00
Tim Peters fc7265ab42 Wise uninstallers never delete the Python DLL from the system directory.
They should.  Added a line that's supposed to fix that -- it doesn't
actually work on my box, but checking it in anyway.

Guido van Rossum a4ff6ab093 Add tests for overridable operators that have default interpretations
(__hash__ etc.), in static and dynamic classes, overridden and
default.
2001-08-15 23:57:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b8f636641f - Another big step in the right direction. All the overridable
operators for which a default implementation exist now work, both in
  dynamic classes and in static classes, overridden or not.  This
  affects __repr__, __str__, __hash__, __contains__, __nonzero__,
  __cmp__, and the rich comparisons (__lt__ etc.).  For dynamic
  classes, this meant copying a lot of code from classobject!  (XXX
  There are still some holes, because the comparison code in object.c
  uses PyInstance_Check(), meaning new-style classes don't get the
  same dispensation.  This needs more thinking.)

- Add object.__hash__, object.__repr__, object.__str__.  The __str__
  dispatcher now calls the __repr__ dispatcher, as it should.

- For static classes, the tp_compare, tp_richcompare and tp_hash slots
  are now inherited together, or not at all.  (XXX I fear there are
  still some situations where you can inherit __hash__ when you
  shouldn't, but mostly it's OK now, and I think there's no way we can
  get that 100% right.)

Just van Rossum ba634b2ec3 Rewrote Jack's latest change so it does what it intended to do... 2001-08-15 21:20:42 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 28962cc0ea Given a class without __cmp__ or __eq__, cmp() of two instances of
that class should compare the id() of those instances.  Add a test
that verifies this.  This test currently fails; I believe this is
caused by object.c:2.132 (Patch #424475 by loewis).
2001-08-15 21:02:20 +00:00
Fred Drake ce1650f3a5 A large contribution from Dave Kuhlman describing what each of the slots
in the type object is used for, for many of the more commonly used slots.
Thanks!

(But there is still a lot more to write on this topic.)
Markup and organizational changes by your friendly neighborhood
documentation czar.

Fred Drake 87731762f2 Dave Kuhlman has contributed a nice improvement to the "Defining New Types"
section of the Extending & Embedding manual -- thanks!

Fred Drake 4e6a3fe0f6 Remove spurious space before a period. 2001-08-15 18:48:10 +00:00
Fred Drake d55657bdf2 Added comments before recently added/assigned slots in the type object,
so the backward compatibility issues will be easier to understand.  I only
added comments indicating additions and assignments back to Python 2.0.

Guido van Rossum 88dcf03068 Add 'state' as a get/set attribute to spamlist. This serves as an
example.
2001-08-15 18:18:58 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e6b90eaea1 Add 'state' as a read-only attribute to spamdict. This serves as an
example.

Guido van Rossum 23cc2b4991 PyMethod_Type: add a tp_descr_get slot function to ensure proper
binding of unbound methods.
2001-08-15 17:52:31 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b5a136b05d Add a test to verify that bound methods work correctly. 2001-08-15 17:51:17 +00:00
Martin v. Löwis f95dd0a298 Fix portability problems with glibc 2.0, as reported in #449157. 2001-08-15 17:14:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 834a85a235 Use the "howto" document class rather than the "manual" class.
Remove the module index; there aren't enough modules documented yet
for this to make sense.

Add a couple more index entries, fixed a few typos, and adjusted a few
more things for consistency.

instead of directly manipulating the underlying dictionary.

Jack Jansen 591cbede56 MacOSX: if we're building without --enable-toolbox-glue don't attempt to
include _PyMac_Error. Also don't try to include __dummy: it needs Foundation
and I think (not 100% sure) that this isn't part of naked Darwin.
2001-08-15 13:55:15 +00:00
Jack Jansen df82e58cd5 On OSX we should not pass the -shared option to ld: it make the build
of audioop and cmath fail. Removing it seems to have no adverse consequences.

Closes bug #450510.
2001-08-15 13:17:45 +00:00
Jack Jansen 31b5323c84 Don't remove non-directories from sys.path on the mac: files
can be on sys.path too.

Tim Peters 591f71b1d4 New, larger installer bitmap from Erik van Blokland. Added more
vertical whitespace to the acknowledgements portion of the "Installation
Completed!" screen for easier reading.

Tim Peters e5614630fb Move one of the tests into the "PEP 255" section, to reflect a change in
the PEP.

Jack Jansen e578a63827 Oops, forgot to check in configure. 2001-08-15 01:27:14 +00:00
Jack Jansen b6e9cad34c Lots of changes in the framework support:
- Made framework builds work for MacOSX. The configure arg is now
  "--enable-framework".
- Added an install target frameworkinstall which installs the framework.
- Ripped out Next/OpenStep support, which was broken anyway.
- Made the MacOSX toolbox glue dependant on a --enable-toolbox-glue
  configure arg. This should make naked darwin build work again (untested).

A few targets have been added to Makefile.pre.in, and on inspection they
look harmless to non-MacOSX machines, but it is worth checking.

Closes bug #420601 and patch #450350.
2001-08-15 01:26:28 +00:00
Jack Jansen e925faff8e With WITH_NEXT_FRAMEWORK defined we now also expect a normal Python
installation.
If there is no LANDMARK we assume we're a bare framework in the
install directory (again WITH_NEXT_FRAMEWORK only).

Guido van Rossum 4dd64ab5ea Non-function fields, like tp_dictoffset and tp_weaklistoffset, should

inherit these.

Also added some XXX comments about open ends.

update cf_flags with any features defined by future statements in the
compiled code.

Barry Warsaw 9b3be7f5d9 Document the new semantics for setting and deleting a function's
__dict__ attribute.  Deleting it, or setting it to a non-dictionary
result in a TypeError.  Note that getting it the first time magically
initializes it to an empty dict so that func.__dict__ will always
appear to be a dictionary (never None).

Closes SF bug #446645.
