|
|
during the decoding of an invalid UTF-8 byte sequence, only the start byte
|
|
and the continuation byte(s) are now considered invalid, instead of the
|
|
number of bytes specified by the start byte. E.g.:
|
|
'\xf1\x80AB'.decode('utf-8', 'replace') now returns u'\ufffdAB' and replaces
|
|
with U+FFFD only the start byte ('\xf1') and the continuation byte ('\x80')
|
|
even if '\xf1' is the start byte of a 4-bytes sequence. Previous versions
|
|
returned a single u'\ufffd'.

Remove bogus "Overriding __cmp__ blocks inheritance of __hash__ in 3.x"
|
|
warning. Also fix "XXX undetected error" that arises from the "Overriding
|
|
__eq__ blocks inheritance ..." warning when turned into an exception: in
|
|
this case the exception simply gets ignored.

Fix two issues with comparisons between complex and integer objects. (1)
|
|
The comparison could incorrectly return True in some cases (2**53+1 ==
|
|
complex(2**53) == 2**53), breaking transivity of equality. (2) The
|
|
comparison raised an OverflowError for large integers, leading to
|
|
unpredictable exceptions when combining integers and complex objects in sets
|
|
or dicts.

Implicit coercion for the complex type is now completely removed. (Coercion

for arithmetic operations was already removed in 2.7 alpha 4, but coercion

for rich comparisons was accidentally left in.)
