aifc.openfp() alias to aifc.open(), sunau.openfp() alias to
sunau.open(), and wave.openfp() alias to wave.open() have been
removed. They were deprecated since Python 3.7.
Add --upgrade-deps to venv module
- This allows for pip + setuptools to be automatically upgraded to the latest version on PyPI
- Update documentation to represent this change
bpo-34556: Add --upgrade to venv module
Add a new public PyObject_CallNoArgs() function to the C API: call a
callable Python object without any arguments.
It is the most efficient way to call a callback without any argument.
On x86-64, for example, PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, NULL)
allocates 960 bytes on the stack per call, whereas
PyObject_CallNoArgs(func) only allocates 624 bytes per call.
It is excluded from stable ABI 3.8.
Replace private _PyObject_CallNoArg() with public
PyObject_CallNoArgs() in C extensions: _asyncio, _datetime,
_elementtree, _pickle, _tkinter and readline.
bpo-35031, bpo-35998: Reintroduce workaround on Windows and FreeBSD
in test_start_tls_server_1() of test_asyncio: disable TLS v1.3 on the
client context.
uuid could try fallback methods that had no chance of working on a particular
platform, and this could cause spurious test failures, as well as degraded
performance as fallback options were tried and failed.
This fixes both the uuid module and its test's SkipUnless logic to use a
prefiltered list of techniques that may at least potentially work on that platform.
Patch by Michael Felt (aixtools).
In a subinterpreter, spawning a daemon thread now raises an
exception. Daemon threads were never supported in subinterpreters.
Previously, the subinterpreter finalization crashed with a Pyton
fatal error if a daemon thread was still running.
* Add _thread._is_main_interpreter()
* threading.Thread.start() now raises RuntimeError if the thread is a
daemon thread and the method is called from a subinterpreter.
* The _thread module now uses Argument Clinic for the new function.
* Use textwrap.dedent() in test_threading.SubinterpThreadingTests
Document reference cycle and resurrected objects issues in
sys.unraisablehook() and threading.excepthook() documentation.
Fix test.support.catch_unraisable_exception(): __exit__() no longer
ignores unraisable exceptions.
Fix test_io test_writer_close_error_on_close(): use a second
catch_unraisable_exception() to catch the BufferedWriter unraisable
exception.
This PR adds missing details in the [`concurrent.futures`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html) documentation:
* the mention that `Future.cancel` also returns `False` if the call finished running;
* the mention of the states for `Future` that did not complete: pending or running.
Join the thread to prevent leaking a running thread and leaking a
reference.
Cleanup also the test:
* asyncioWindowsProactorEventLoopPolicy became the default policy,
there is no need to set it manually.
* Only start the thread once the loop is running.
* Use a shorter sleep in the thread (100 ms rather than 1 sec).
* Use close_loop(loop) rather than loop.close().
* Use longer variable names.
Fix a regression introduced by af8646c805 that was causing code of the form:
if True and False:
do_something()
to be optimized incorrectly, eliminating the block.
