involve a filesystem path. To that end:
- Changed IOError to EnvironmentError and added a hack which checks
for arg of len 3. When constructed with a 3-tuple, the third item
is the filename and this is squirreled away in the `filename'
attribute. However, for in-place unpacking backwards
compatibility, self.args still only gets the first two items. Added
a __str__() which prints the filename if it is given.
- IOError now inherits from EnvironmentError
- New class OSError which also inherits from EnvironmentError and is
used by the posix module.
Fix the implementation of quote_plus(). (It wouldn't treat '+' in the
original data right.)
Add urlencode(dict) which is handy to create the data for sending a
POST request with urlopen().
according to an idea by Harri Pasanen (but with different syntax).
This affects the 'break' and 'clear' commands and their help
functions. Also added a helper method lookupmodule().
Also:
- Try to import readline (important when pdb is used from/as a script).
- Get rid of reference to ancient __privileged__ magic variable.
- Moved all import out of functions to the top.
- When used as a script, check that the script file exists.
not calling self.search(); instead, call self.code.match() directly
and interpret the list of registers it returns directly. This saves
the overhead of instantiating a MatchObject for each hit, basically
inlining search() as well as group(). When a MatchObject is still
needed, one is allocated and reused for the duration of the scan.
In the bbox method of Group (Canvas.py file), you should read
return self.canvas._getints(self._do('bbox'))
instead of
return self._getints(self._do('bbox'))
(2) Made the test script a bit fancier -- you can now use it to run
arbitrary scripts in restricted mode, and it will do the right thing.
(The interactive mode is still pretty lame; should integrate this with
code.interact().)
1. Convert to using re module
2. Added two new exception classes
a. MissingSectionHeaderError which signals an early parsing
exception when options appear in the file before any section
header. Previously a bogus TypeError was thrown deeper down.
b. ParsingError which collates any non-fatal parsing errors.
ConfigParser.read() will raise this after the entire file was
parsed if any errors occurred during parsing (client could just
catch the exception and continue, because the ConfigParser
instance would still be initialized with the valid data).
(small note: Error.__msg => Error._msg)
3. ConfigParser.__read() now uses re which has the following minor
semantic change: underscore is now allowed in section header and
option name. Also, because of the old regexps, theoretically.
Fixed continuation line bug reported by F. Lundh.
4. It seemed that the old ConfigParser automatically added the option
`name' to every section, which contained the name of the section.
This seemed bogus to me so I took it out.
string. Added groupdict() to MatchObject -- return the named groups
as a dict. Added default argument to groups() to specify what to
return for unmatching groups; groupdict() also has this.
