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.
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.)
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.
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.)
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).
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.
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.
- 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.
When code is compiled and compiler flags are passed in, be sure to
update cf_flags with any features defined by future statements in the
compiled code.
__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).
