with major C compilers (VACPP, EMX+gcc and [Open]Watcom).
Also tidy up the export of spawn*() symbols in the os module to match what
is found/implemented.
close() calls would attempt to free() the buffer already free()ed on
the first close(). [bug introduced with patch #788249]
Making sure that the buffer is free()ed in file object deallocation is
a belt-n-braces bit of insurance against a memory leak.
version of Tcl other than ActiveTcl is installed (ActiveTcl
included TclX, other Tcl distros didn't).
I'm removing the package loading test because it's hard to
come up with a package that is guaranteed to be in any Tcl installation.
Special-casing darwin and windows is ok since that leaves the
only Tk platform (X) which the test was trying to address.
* pre-build a single identity function for the fixup function
* pre-build membership tests in dictionaries instead of in-line tuples
* assign len() to a local variable
* assign append() methods to a local variable
* use xrange() instead of range()
* replace "x<<1" with "x+x"
Test suites for urllib and urlparse run with each other's function to verify
correctness of replacement and both test suites pass.
Bumped urllib's __version__ attribute up a minor number.
requires and provides. requires is a sequence of strings, of the
form 'packagename-version'. The dependency checking so far merely
does an '__import__(packagename)' and checks for packagename.__version__
You can also leave off the version, and any version of the package
will be installed.
There's a special case for the package 'python' - sys.version_info
is used, so
requires= ( 'python-2.3', )
just works.
Provides is of the same format as requires - but if it's not supplied,
a provides is generated by adding the version to each entry in packages,
or modules if packages isn't there.
Provides is currently only used in the PKG-INFO file. Shortly, PyPI
will grow the ability to accept these lines, and register will be
updated to send them.
There's a new command 'checkdep' command that runs these checks.
For this version, only greater-than-or-equal checking is done. We'll
add the ability to specify an optional operator later.
It's possible to create insane datetime objects by using the constructor
"backdoor" inserted for fast unpickling. Doing extensive range checking
would eliminate the backdoor's purpose (speed), but at least a little
checking can stop honest mistakes.
Bugfix candidate.
