R. David Murray 8b7d4aa746 Update documentation for csv module to reflect changes in code,
specifically that it now expects unicode input (and therefore the
paragraph about it not handling unicode is deleted, as well as
the 'how to handle unicode' examples) and that files should
be opened with "newline=''" instead of binary mode.  Also removed
unused BytesIO import from test_csv.

This addresses issue 4847.

Alexandre Vassalotti 3cde7c752a Undocument the existence of the memo attribute and its main use-case.
Apparently, Guido don't like this behavior. [1]  I also agree that the memo
should be left as an implementation detail.

R. David Murray bd25d337ba Clarify that datetime strftime does not produce leap seconds and datetime
strptime does not accept it in the strftime behavior section of the
datetime docs.

Closes issue 2568.

Porting by hand since svnmerge disclaims all knowledge of the trunk commit.

  PyImport_AppendInittab() took a char * as a first argument even though that
  string was stored beyond the life of the call. Changed the signature to be

Georg Brandl ab6f2f6eb6 Fix segfaults when running test_exceptions with coverage tracing, caused by wrongly defining Exception.__context__ as a T_OBJECT structmember which does not set the member to NULL on None assignment, and generally does not do type checks. This could be used to crash the interpreter by setting any object to __context__. The same applies to __cause__. Also document the PyException_* functions. 2009-03-31 04:16:10 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 70d61cedf7 "Port" the fix for issue 1974 from the trunk (2.7). Because Python 3.x does things much better, less changes are necessary.
This also shoves test_email_codecs_rename.py onto test_email_codecs.py even though the test needs to be ported to Python 3.

Brett Cannon 7f6b4f86e3 Make sure time.strptime only accepts strings (and document the fact like
strftime). Already didn't accept bytes but make the check earlier. This also
lifts the limitation of requiring ASCII.

Closes issue #5236. Thanks Tennessee Leeuwenburg.

Jeremy Hylton 236654b82d Fix some string encoding issues with entity bodies in HTTP requests.
RFC 2616 says that iso-8859-1 is the default charset for HTTP entity
bodies, but we encoded strings using ascii.  See
http://bugs.python.org/issue5314.  Changed docs and code to use
iso-8859-1.

Also fix some brokenness with passing a file as the body instead of a
string.

Add tests to show that some of this behavior actually works.
