Žiga Seilnacht 6f2d09c949 Patch #1623563: allow __class__ assignment for classes with __slots__.

Georg Brandl 8f06d02935 Bug #1681228: the webbrowser module now correctly uses the default
GNOME or KDE browser, depending on whether there is a session of one

trying Mozilla variants.

Georg Brandl 4aef7275cb Patch #1185447: binascii.b2a_qp() now correctly quotes binary characters
with ASCII value less than 32. Also, it correctly quotes dots only if

Georg Brandl a47337fba5 Bug #1622896: fix a rare corner case where the bz2 module raised an
error in spite of a succesful compression.
2007-03-13 12:34:25 +00:00
Lars Gustäbel c64e40215d This is the implementation of POSIX.1-2001 (pax) format read/write
support.

The TarInfo class now contains all necessary logic to process and
create tar header data which has been moved there from the TarFile
class. The fromtarfile() method was added. The new path and linkpath
properties are aliases for the name and linkname attributes in
correspondence to the pax naming scheme.

The TarFile constructor and classmethods now accept a number of
keyword arguments which could only be set as attributes before (e.g.
dereference, ignore_zeros). The encoding and pax_headers arguments
were added for pax support. There is a new tarinfo keyword argument
that allows using subclassed TarInfo objects in TarFile.

The boolean TarFile.posix attribute is deprecated, because now three
tar formats are supported. Instead, the desired format for writing is
specified using the constants USTAR_FORMAT, GNU_FORMAT and PAX_FORMAT
as the format keyword argument. This change affects TarInfo.tobuf()
as well.

The test suite has been heavily reorganized and partially rewritten.
A new testtar.tar was added that contains sample data in many formats
from 4 different tar programs.

Some bugs and quirks that also have been fixed:
Directory names do no longer have a trailing slash in TarInfo.name or
TarFile.getnames().
Adding the same file twice does not create a hardlink file member.
The TarFile constructor does no longer need a name argument.
The TarFile._mode attribute was renamed to mode and contains either
'r', 'w' or 'a'.

Georg Brandl 871f1bc601 Backport from Py3k branch:
Patch #1591665: implement the __dir__() special function lookup in PyObject_Dir.

Thomas Heller 2456a3c02a Bug #1651235: When a tuple was passed to a ctypes function call,
Python would crash instead of raising an error.

The crash was caused by a section of code that should have been
removed long ago, at that time ctypes had other ways to pass
parameters to function calls.

Collin Winter fb728de5f4 Add NEWS item for patch #1481079 (r54234). 2007-03-09 03:26:32 +00:00
Brett Cannon a30fcb4dae Introduce test.test_support.TransientResource. It's a context manager to
surround calls to resources that may or may not be available.  Specifying the
expected exception and attributes to be raised if the resource is not available
prevents overly broad catching of exceptions.

This is meant to help suppress spurious failures by raising
test.test_support.ResourceDenied if the exception matches.  It would probably
be good to go through the various network tests and surround the calls to catch
connection timeouts (as done with test_socket_ssl in this commit).

Jeremy Hylton c5ceb251b3 Fix crash in exec when unicode filename can't be decoded.
I can't think of an easy way to test this behavior.  It only occurs
when the file system default encoding and the interpreter default
encoding are different, such that you can open the file but not decode
its name.

Raymond Hettinger 00166c5532 Add merge() function to heapq. 2007-02-19 04:08:43 +00:00
Brett Cannon 971a012ce1 Update the encoding package's search function to use absolute imports when
calling __import__.  This helps make the expected search locations for encoding
modules be more explicit.

One could use an explicit value for __path__ when making the call to __import__
to force the exact location searched for encodings.  This would give the most
strict search path possible if one is worried about malicious code being
imported.  The unfortunate side-effect of that is that if __path__ was modified
on 'encodings' on purpose in a safe way it would not be picked up in future
__import__ calls.

Brett Cannon 129bd52146 No more raising of string exceptions!
The next step of PEP 352 (for 2.6) causes raising a string exception to trigger

Brett Cannon 07e1db317d Fix time.strptime's %U support. Basically rewrote the algorithm to be more

Armin Rigo 7ccbca93a2 Forward-port of r52136,52138: a review of overflow-detecting code.
* unified the way intobject, longobject and mystrtoul handle
  values around -sys.maxint-1.

* in general, trying to entierely avoid overflows in any computation
  involving signed ints or longs is extremely involved.  Fixed a few
  simple cases where a compiler might be too clever (but that's all
  guesswork).

* more overflow checks against bad data in marshal.c.

* 2.5 specific: fixed a number of places that were still confusing int
  and Py_ssize_t.  Some of them could potentially have caused
  "real-world" breakage.

* list.pop(x): fixing overflow issues on x was messy.  I just reverted
  to PyArg_ParseTuple("n"), which does the right thing.  (An obscure
  test was trying to give a Decimal to list.pop()... doesn't make
  sense any more IMHO)

* trying to write a few tests...

Neal Norwitz 4a8fbdb1b2 Fix %zd string formatting on Mac OS X so it prints negative numbers.
In addition to testing positive numbers, verify negative numbers work in configure.
In order to avoid compiler warnings on OS X 10.4, also change the order of the check
for the format character to use (PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T) in the sprintf format
for Py_ssize_t.  This patch changes PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T from "" to "l" if it wasn't
defined at configure time.  Need to verify the buildbot results.

Backport candidate (if everyone thinks this patch can't be improved).

Georg Brandl ec6c2dfb63 Forward-port of rev. 51857:
Building with HP's cc on HP-UX turned up a couple of problems.
_PyGILState_NoteThreadState was declared as static inconsistently.
Make it static as it's not necessary outside of this module.

Some tests failed because errno was reset to 0. (I think the tests
that failed were at least: test_fcntl and test_mailbox).
Ensure that errno doesn't change after a call to Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS.
This only affected debug builds.

Neal Norwitz dac090d3e6 Bug #1520864 (again): unpacking singleton tuples in list comprehensions and
generator expressions (x for x, in ... ) works again.

Sigh, I only fixed for loops the first time, not list comps and genexprs too.
I couldn't find any more unpacking cases where there is a similar bug lurking.

This code should be refactored to eliminate the duplication.  I'm sure
the listcomp/genexpr code can be refactored.  I'm not sure if the for loop
can re-use any of the same code though.

Will backport to 2.5 (the only place it matters).

Tim Peters c10c9d0d6b "Conceptual" merge of rev 51711 from the 2.5 branch.
i_divmod():  As discussed on Python-Dev, changed the overflow
checking to live happily with recent gcc optimizations that
assume signed integer arithmetic never overflows.

This differs from the corresponding change on the 2.5 and 2.4
branches, using a less obscure approach, but one that /may/
tickle platform idiocies in their definitions of LONG_MIN.
The 2.4 + 2.5 change avoided introducing a dependence on
LONG_MIN, at the cost of substantially goofier code.

Thomas Heller 867200483b Apply the patch #1532975 plus ideas from the patch #1533481.
ctypes instances no longer have the internal and undocumented
'_as_parameter_' attribute which was used to adapt them to foreign
function calls; this mechanism is replaced by a function pointer in
the type's stgdict.

In the 'from_param' class methods, try the _as_parameter_ attribute if
other conversions are not possible.

This makes the documented _as_parameter_ mechanism work as intended.

Change the ctypes version number to 1.0.1.

Neal Norwitz 1872b1c01f Fix a couple of bugs exposed by the new __index__ code. The 64-bit buildbots
were failing due to inappropriate clipping of numbers larger than 2**31
with new-style classes. (typeobject.c)  In reviewing the code for classic
classes, there were 2 problems.  Any negative value return could be returned.
Always return -1 if there was an error.  Also make the checks similar
with the new-style classes.  I believe this is correct for 32 and 64 bit
boxes, including Windows64.

Add a test of classic classes too.

Barry Warsaw 00decd7835 Patch #1520294: Support for getset and member descriptors in types.py,
inspect.py, and pydoc.py.  Specifically, this allows for querying the type of
an object against these built-in C types and more importantly, for getting
their docstrings printed in the interactive interpreter's help() function.

This patch includes a new built-in module called _types which provides
definitions of getset and member descriptors for use by the types.py module.
These types are exposed as types.GetSetDescriptorType and
types.MemberDescriptorType.  Query functions are provided as
inspect.isgetsetdescriptor() and inspect.ismemberdescriptor().  The
implementations of these are robust enough to work with Python implementations
other than CPython, which may not have these fundamental types.

The patch also includes documentation and test suite updates.

I commit these changes now under these guiding principles:

1. Silence is assent.  The release manager has not said "no", and of the few
   people that cared enough to respond to the thread, the worst vote was "0".

2. It's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

3. It's so dang easy to revert stuff in svn, that you could view this as a
   forcing function. :)

Windows build patches will follow.

Tim Peters bc24eee333 Bug #1521947: possible bug in mystrtol.c with recent gcc.
In general, C doesn't define anything about what happens when
an operation on a signed integral type overflows, and PyOS_strtol()
did several formally undefined things of that nature on signed
longs.  Some version of gcc apparently tries to exploit that now,
and PyOS_strtol() could fail to detect overflow then.

Tried to repair all that, although it seems at least as likely to me
that we'll get screwed by bad platform definitions for LONG_MIN
and/or LONG_MAX now.  For that reason, I don't recommend backporting
this.

Note that I have no box on which this makes a lick of difference --
can't really test it, except to note that it didn't break anything
on my boxes.

Silent change:  PyOS_strtol() used to return the hard-coded 0x7fffffff
in case of overflow.  Now it returns LONG_MAX.  They're the same only on
32-bit boxes (although C doesn't guarantee that either ...).

Barry Warsaw b110bad2d9 More RFC 2231 improvements for the email 4.0 package. As Mark Sapiro rightly
points out there are really two types of continued headers defined in this
RFC (i.e. "encoded" parameters with the form "name*0*=" and unencoded
parameters with the form "name*0="), but we were were handling them both the
same way and that isn't correct.

This patch should be much more RFC compliant in that only encoded params are
%-decoded and the charset/language information is only extract if there are
any encoded params in the segments.  If there are no encoded params then the
RFC says that there will be no charset/language parts.

Note however that this will change the return value for Message.get_param() in
some cases.  For example, whereas before if you had all unencoded param
continuations you would have still gotten a 3-tuple back from this method
(with charset and language == None), you will now get just a string.  I don't
believe this is a backward incompatible change though because the
documentation for this method already indicates that either return value is
possible and that you must do an isinstance(val, tuple) check to discriminate
between the two.  (Yeah that API kind of sucks but we can't change /that/
without breaking code.)

Test cases, some documentation updates, and a NEWS item accompany this patch.

Tim Peters 112aad3630 SF bug 1524317: configure --without-threads fails to build
Moved the code for _PyThread_CurrentFrames() up, so it's no longer
in a huge "#ifdef WITH_THREAD" block (I didn't realize it /was/ in
one).

Changed test_sys's test_current_frames() so it passes with or without
thread supported compiled in.

Note that test_sys fails when Python is compiled without threads,
but for an unrelated reason (the old test_exit() fails with an
indirect ImportError on the `thread` module).  There are also
other unrelated compilation failures without threads, in extension
modules (like ctypes); at least the core compiles again.

Do we really support --without-threads?  If so, there are several
problems remaining.

Brett Cannon caebe22038 Fix bug #1520914. Starting in 2.4, time.strftime() began to check the bounds

undocumented behaviour of setting unneeded values to 0, regardless of if it was
within the valid range.  Now those values force the value internally to the
minimum value when 0 is passed in.
