about illegal code points. The codec now supports PEP 293 style error handlers.
(This is a variant of the Nik Haldimann's patch that detects truncated data)
decoding incomplete input (when the input stream is temporarily exhausted).
codecs.StreamReader now implements buffering, which enables proper
readline support for the UTF-16 decoders. codecs.StreamReader.read()
has a new argument chars which specifies the number of characters to
return. codecs.StreamReader.readline() and codecs.StreamReader.readlines()
have a new argument keepends. Trailing "\n"s will be stripped from the lines
if keepends is false. Added C APIs PyUnicode_DecodeUTF8Stateful and
PyUnicode_DecodeUTF16Stateful.
need to convert str objects from the iterable to unicode. So, if
someone set the system default encoding to something nasty enough,
the conversion process could mutate the input iterable as a side
effect, and PySequence_Fast doesn't hide that from us if the input was
a list. IOW, can't assume the size of PySequence_Fast's result is
invariant across PyUnicode_FromObject() calls.
much to reduce the size of the code, but greatly improves its clarity.
It's also quicker in what's probably the most common case (the argument
iterable is a list). Against it, if the iterable isn't a list or a tuple,
a temp tuple is materialized containing the entire input sequence, and
that's a bigger temp memory burden. Yawn.
1. u1.join([u2]) is u2
2. Be more careful about C-level int overflow.
Since PySequence_Fast() isn't needed to achieve #1, it's not used -- but
the code could sure be simpler if it were.
unicodedata.east_asian_width(). You can still implement your own
simple width() function using it like this:
def width(u):
w = 0
for c in unicodedata.normalize('NFC', u):
cwidth = unicodedata.east_asian_width(c)
if cwidth in ('W', 'F'): w += 2
else: w += 1
return w

This addresses most of the remaining semantic changes promised by
PEP 237, except for repr() of a long, which still shows the trailing
'L'. The PEP appears to promise warnings for operations that
changed semantics compared to Python 2.3, but this is not
implemented; we've suffered through enough warnings related to
hex/oct literals and I think it's best to be silent now.
charmaptranslate_makespace() allocated more memory than required for the
next replacement but didn't remember that fact, so memory size was growing
exponentially every time a replacement string is longer that one character.
This fixes SF bug #828737.
If a length-1 Unicode string was in the freelist and it was
uninitialized or pointed to a very large (magnitude) negative number,
the check
unicode_latin1[unicode->str[0]] == unicode
could cause a segmentation violation, e.g. unicode->str[0] is 0xcbcbcbcb.
Fix this in two ways:
1. Change guard befor unicode_latin1[] to test against 256U. If I
understand correctly, the unsigned long used to store UCS4 on my
box was getting converted to a signed long to compare with the
signed constant 256.
2. Change _PyUnicode_New() to make sure the first element of str is
always initialized to zero. There are several places in the code
where the caller can exit with an error before initializing any
of str, which would leave junk in str[0].
Also, silence a compiler warning on pointer vs. int arithmetic.
Bug fix candidate.
The unicode_resize() family only returns -1 or 0 so simply checking
for != 0 is sufficient, but somewhat unclear. Many Python API
functions return < 0 on error, reserving the right to return 0 or 1 on
success. Change the call sites for consistency with these calls.
when an encoding error occurs and the callback name is unknown,
i.e. when the callback has to be called. The problem was that
the fact that the callback has already been looked up was only
recorded in a local variable in charmap_encoding_error(), because
charmap_encoding_error() got it's own copy of the errorHandler
pointer instead of a pointer to the pointer in
PyUnicode_EncodeCharmap().

'chars' is used for the last parameter everywhere.
These changes will be backported, since part of the changes
have already been made, but they were inconsistent.
