Tim Peters c4e0940042 New generator os.walk() does a bit more than os.path.walk() does, and
seems much easier to use.  Code, docs, NEWS, and additions to test_os.py
(testing this sucker is a bitch!).
2003-04-25 07:11:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 47dfa4a89a Patch by Jp Calderone:
- The socket module now provides the functions inet_pton and inet_ntop
  for converting between string and packed representation of IP addresses.
  See SF patch #658327.

This still needs a bit of work in the doc area, because it is not
available on all platforms (especially not on Windows).

Tim Peters 11b2306960 Enable os.fsync() for Windows, mapping it to MS's _commit() there. The
docs here are best-guess:  the MS docs I could find weren't clear, and
some even claimed _commit() has no effect on Win32 systems (which is
easily shown to be false just by trying it).

2003-04-16 09:46:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0fc8f00252 - pythunrun.c, Py_Finalize(): move the call to _Py_PrintReferences()
even farther down, to just before the call to
  _PyObject_DebugMallocStats().  This required the following changes:

- pystate.c, PyThreadState_GetDict(): changed not to raise an
  exception or issue a fatal error when no current thread state is
  available, but simply return NULL without raising an exception
  (ever).

- object.c, Py_ReprEnter(): when PyThreadState_GetDict() returns NULL,
  don't raise an exception but return 0.  This means that when
  printing a container that's recursive, printing will go on and on
  and on.  But that shouldn't happen in the case we care about (see
  first bullet).

- Updated Misc/NEWS and Doc/api/init.tex to reflect changes to
  PyThreadState_GetDict() definition.
2003-04-15 15:12:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3a3cca5b82 - list.insert(i, x) now interprets negative i as it would be
interpreted by slicing, so negative values count from the end of the
  list.  This was the only place where such an interpretation was not
  placed on a list index.

Barry Warsaw a1ce93f87c From http://mail.python.org/pipermail/i18n-sig/2003-April/001557.html
- Expose NullTranslations and GNUTranslations to __all__

- Set the default charset to iso-8859-1.  It used to be None, which
would cause problems with .ugettext() if the file had no charset
parameter.  Arguably, the po/mo file would be broken, but I still think
iso-8859-1 is a reasonable default.

- Add a "coerce" default argument to GNUTranslations's constructor.  The
reason for this is that in Zope, we want all msgids and msgstrs to be
Unicode.  For the latter, we could use .ugettext() but there isn't
currently a mechanism for Unicode-ifying msgids.

The plan then is that the charset parameter specifies the encoding for
both the msgids and msgstrs, and both are decoded to Unicode when read.
For example, we might encode po files with utf-8. I think the GNU
gettext tools don't care.

Since this could potentially break code [*] that wants to use the
encoded interface .gettext(), the constructor flag is added, defaulting
to False.  Most code I suspect will want to set this to True and use
.ugettext().

- A few other minor changes from the Zope project, including asserting
that a zero-length msgid must have a Project-ID-Version header for it to
be counted as the metadata record.

Adjust test case.

Michael W. Hudson 9c20615d4f Back in June in revision 1.98 Steve (accidentally, presumably) wiped
out a month's worth of checkins to libstdtypes.tex (including my
extended slice docs).

I think this checkin merges them all back in, but if you make one of
these checkins:

    revision 1.97
    date: 2002/06/14 00:27:13;  author: nnorwitz
    Use \code{True} (or False) instead of true/false.
    Not sure if code is correct, but that is what's in this file.
    I've seen \constant{True} in other places.
    ----------------------------
    revision 1.95
    date: 2002/05/22 20:39:43;  author: bwarsaw
    Jack's documentation for the U mode character on the file()
    constructor, vetted by Barry.
    ----------------------------
    revision 1.94
    date: 2002/05/21 18:19:15;  author: rhettinger
    Patch 543387.  Document deprecation of complex %, //,and divmod().
    ----------------------------
    revision 1.93
    date: 2002/05/15 15:45:25;  author: rhettinger
    Added missing index entries for mapping methods.  Closes patch
    #548693.

some checking may be in order.

Michael W. Hudson 2ab1d08f90 I thought it was common practice to check things compiled before
checking them in?  Oh well, this fixes various obvious mistakes and
changes a subsubsubsection (which doesn't exist) into a subsubsection
(which does).  I'm not sure this matches the intent, but it seems to
read OK on a quick skim.

Just van Rossum 96b1c903f5 Patch #683592 revisited, after discussions with MvL:
- Implement the behavior as specified in PEP 277, meaning os.listdir()
  will only return unicode strings if it is _called_ with a unicode
  argument.
- And then return only unicode, don't attempt to convert to ASCII.
- Don't switch on Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, but simply use the
  default encoding if Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding is NULL. This means
  os.listdir() can now raise UnicodeDecodeError if the default encoding
  can't represent the directory entry. (This seems better than silcencing
  the error and fall back to a byte string.)
- Attempted to decribe the above in Doc/lib/libos.tex.
- Reworded the Misc/NEWS items to reflect the current situation.

This checkin also fixes bug #696261, which was due to os.listdir() not
using Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, like all file system calls are
supposed to.

Michael W. Hudson f008998668 Fix bug
[ 555817 ] Flawed fcntl.ioctl implementation.

with my patch that allows for an array to be mutated when passed
as the buffer argument to ioctl() (details complicated by
backwards compatibility considerations -- read the docs!).

Guido van Rossum 46d3dc37e4 - New function sys.exc_clear() clears the current exception. This is
rarely needed, but can sometimes be useful to release objects
  referenced by the traceback held in sys.exc_info()[2].  (SF patch
  #693195.)  Thanks to Kevin Jacobs!
