* As discussed on python-dev, revised docs to note thatRaymond Hettinger2003-04-161-1/+8
| | | | | | | | PyObject_IsTrue() can have an error result. Also, added missing docs for PyObject_Not(). Will backport.
* - pythunrun.c, Py_Finalize(): move the call to _Py_PrintReferences()Guido van Rossum2003-04-151-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | Remove prototype and doc. Backport candidate.

| | | | | | * Correct description of PyFloat_FromString. While ignored, the pend argument still has to be given. * Typo in PyLong_FromString.
* Add PyFloat_FromString. Left the char **pend argument out of theSkip Montanaro2003-02-031-0/+5
| | | | | | description since while there, it is useless and ignored, according to Tim's commen. (PyInt_FromString is also not described, but PyLong_FromString is. Is the former deprecated?)
* Fix typoRaymond Hettinger2003-01-311-1/+1
|
* Include version annotation for PyObject_Call().Fred Drake2003-01-251-0/+1
|
* Enhance issubclass() and PyObject_IsSubclass() so that a tuple isWalter Dörwald2002-12-121-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | supported as the second argument. This has the same meaning as for isinstance(), i.e. issubclass(X, (A, B)) is equivalent to issubclass(X, A) or issubclass(X, B). Compared to isinstance(), this patch does not search the tuple recursively for classes, i.e. any entry in the tuple that is not a class, will result in a TypeError. This closes SF patch #649608.
* Typo: propogate -> propagateThomas Heller2002-12-062-3/+3
| | | | Bugfix candidate.
* Document that the second argument to PyObject_IsInstanceWalter Dörwald2002-12-061-3/+7
| | | | | | | may be a tuple. This closes SF patch http://www.python.org/sf/649095 Backport to release22-maint will follow.
* Change int() so that passing a string, unicode, float or long argumentWalter Dörwald2002-11-191-2/+3
| | | | | | | that is outside the integer range no longer raises OverflowError, but returns a long object instead. This fixes SF bug http://www.python.org/sf/635115
* Clarify that PyImport_AddModule() and PyImport_ExecCodeModule() don'tFred Drake2002-11-131-3/+7
| | | | | | add any package support structure even if a dotted-name is passed for the module. Closes SF bug #424106.

* Added refcount information for PyObject_GetIter().Fred Drake2002-10-041-0/+3

* Ok, read the source this time: PyErr_SetObject() does not steal a reference.Fred Drake2002-09-251-1/+1

* Clarify documentation for PyErr_SetObject() to describe the referenceFred Drake2002-09-241-1/+1

* Py_InitModule() and friends now accept NULL for the 'methods'Fred Drake2002-08-141-0/+9
| | | | | argument. This makes sense now that extension types can support __init__ directly rather than requiring function constructors.
* Document PyExc_FutureWarningBarry Warsaw2002-08-141-4/+4
|
* Add some fine points: METH_KEYWORDS implies METH_VARARGS, and ob_sizeGuido van Rossum2002-08-061-6/+10
| | | | is no longer unused in type objects.
* New functions for extension writers on Windows:Thomas Heller2002-07-291-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErr(), PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErrWithFilename(). Similar to PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrWithFilename() and PyErr_SetFromWindowsErr(), but they allow to specify the exception type to raise. Available on Windows. See SF patch #576458.

* The Py_REF_DEBUG/COUNT_ALLOCS/Py_TRACE_REFS macro minefield: addedTim Peters2002-07-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | more trivial lexical helper macros so that uses of these guys expand to nothing at all when they're not enabled. This should help sub- standard compilers that can't do a good job of optimizing away the previous "(void)0" expressions. Py_DECREF: There's only one definition of this now. Yay! That was that last one in the family defined multiple times in an #ifdef maze. Py_FatalError(): Changed the char* signature to const char*. _Py_NegativeRefcount(): New helper function for the Py_REF_DEBUG expansion of Py_DECREF. Calling an external function cuts down on the volume of generated code. The previous inline expansion of abort() didn't work as intended on Windows (the program often kept going, and the error msg scrolled off the screen unseen). _Py_NegativeRefcount calls Py_FatalError instead, which captures our best knowledge of how to abort effectively across platforms.

* Docs for PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrWithFilename() andThomas Heller2002-07-021-0/+23
| | | | | PyErr_SetFromWindowsErr(). Fixes SF# 576016, with additional markup.
