<http://sf.net/projects/mimelib>. There /are/ API differences between
mimelib and email, but most of the implementations are shared (except
where cool Py2.2 stuff like generators are used).
point out, pydoc doesn't tell you where class attributes were defined,
gets several new 2.2 features wrong, and isn't aware of some new features
checked in on Thursday <wink>. pydoc is hampered in part because
inspect.py has the same limitations. Alas, I can't think of a way to
fix this within the current architecture of inspect/pydoc: it's simply
not possible in 2.2 to figure out everything needed just from examining
the object you get back from class.attr. You also need the class
context, and the method resolution order, and tests against various things
that simply didn't exist before. OTOH, knowledge of how to do that is
getting quite complex, so doesn't belong in pydoc.
classify_class_attrs takes a different approach, analyzing all
the class attrs "at once", and returning the most interesting stuff for
each, all in one gulp. pydoc needs to be reworked to use this for
classes (instead of the current "filter dir(class) umpteen times against
assorted predicates" approach).
easy for 2.2 new-style classes, but trickier for classic classes, and
different approaches are needed "depending". The function will allow
later code to treat all flavors of classes uniformly.
somewhere inside a line, use ndiff so that intraline difference marking
can point out what changed within a line. I don't remember diff-style
abbreviations either (haven't used it since '94, except to produce
patches), so say the rest in English too.
Lib/test/output/test_StringIO is no longer necessary.
Also, added a test of the iterator protocol that's just been added to
StringIO's and cStringIO's.
- if __getattribute__ exists, it is called first;
if it doesn't exists, PyObject_GenericGetAttr is called first.
- if the above raises AttributeError, and __getattr__ exists,
it is called.
the first difference, let the test run till completion, then gather
all the output and compare it to the expected output using difflib.
XXX Still to do: produce diff output that only shows the sections that
differ; currently it produces ndiff-style output because that's the
easiest to produce with difflib, but this becomes a liability when the
output is voluminous and there are only a few differences.
classes to __getattribute__, to make it crystal-clear that it doesn't
have the same semantics as overriding __getattr__ on classic classes.
This is a halfway checkin -- I'll proceed to add a __getattr__ hook
that works the way it works in classic classes.
elements which are not Unicode objects or strings. (This matches
the string.join() behaviour.)
Fix a memory leak in the .join() method which occurs in case
the Unicode resize fails.
Restore the test_unicode output.
their own test suite from a multitude of classes (like test_email.py
will be doing).
run_unittest(): Call run_suite() after making a suite from the
testclass.
inspect.getargspec(obj), test isfunction() directly in pydoc.py instead
of trying to indirectly deduce isfunction() in pydoc by virtue of
failing a combination of other tests. This shouldn't have any visible
effect, except perhaps to squash a TypeError death if there was some path
thru this code that was inferring isfunction() by mistake.
__init__.py module to raise errors which can be catched as LookupErrors
as well as SystemErrors.
Modified the error messages to include more information about the
failing module.
instance.
Split a string comparison test in two halves, replacing "a==b==a" with
separate tests for a==b and b==a. (Reason: while experimenting, this
test failed, and I wanted to know if it was the first or the second ==
operator that failed.)
hack, and it's even more disgusting than a PyInstance_Check() call.
If the tp_compare slot is the slot used for overrides in Python,
it's always called.
Add some tests that show what should work too.
#462270: sub-tle difference between pre.sub and sre.sub. PRE ignored
an empty match at the previous location, SRE didn't.
also synced with Secret Labs "sreopen" codebase.
on file.__methods__. Since the docs say "This module will become obsolete
in a future release", this is just a quick hack to stop it from blowing
up. If you care about this module, test it! It doesn't make much sense
on Windows.
