* [ #403753 ] zlib decompress; uncontrollable memory usageJeremy Hylton2001-10-161-2/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Mostly by Toby Dickenson and Titus Brown. Add an optional argument to a decompression object's decompress() method. The argument specifies the maximum length of the return value. If the uncompressed data exceeds this length, the excess data is stored as the unconsumed_tail attribute. (Not to be confused with unused_data, which is a separate issue.) Difference from SF patch: Default value for unconsumed_tail is "" rather than None. It's simpler if the attribute is always a string.
* Added notes to clarify that binascii.crc32(), zlib.crc32(), andFred Drake2001-10-151-2/+6

* Make all the \seemodule explanations consistent: start with a capitalizedFred Drake2000-10-181-1/+1
| | | | | | letter and end with proper punctuation. "Documenting Python" will be updated accordingly so that this will be editorial policy for the Python documentation.
* Update *both* uses of the URL to the zlib home page, and use the versionFred Drake2000-09-161-6/+6

* Merged changes from the 1.5.2p2 release.Fred Drake2000-04-031-10/+33
| | | | (Very rough.)
* The version information here was checked good in 1999, not 199. ;-)Fred Drake1999-04-211-6/+6
| | | | | Added "See also" reference to zlib home page, even though it's mentioned in the text.
* correct version info for zlib.Jeremy Hylton1999-04-051-6/+11
| | | | | | add note about module failing with old versions of the library. update comment that explains that this doc is *still* out of date
* Shorten a few section titles.Fred Drake1999-02-201-2/+2

* Document the optional mode argument (Z_FLUSH, Z_SYNC_FLUSH, etc.)Andrew M. Kuchling1998-12-311-4/+11

* New section header style.Fred Drake1998-08-101-1/+2

* Added a synopsis.Fred Drake1998-07-271-2/+3

* Somewhat updated, but not checked for everything (just the stuff I was using).Fred Drake1998-06-191-14/+15

* Removed misleading comment about GNU software. This module and the zlibFred Drake1998-04-091-3/+2
| | | | | library have no relationship with GNU software other than implementing some of the same algorithms and file format. (The zlib module is more general.)
* Added index entry.Fred Drake1998-04-041-0/+1
|
* Nits.Fred Drake1998-04-031-25/+33
| | | | | | Add {excdesc} for zlib.error. Use {methoddesc} where appropriate.
* Change "\," to just "," in function signatures. This is easier to maintain,Fred Drake1998-03-171-3/+3
| | | | | works better with LaTeX2HTML, and allows some simplification of the python.sty macros.
* Remove all \bcode / \ecode cruft; this is no longer needed. See previousFred Drake1998-02-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | checkin of myformat.sty. Change "\renewcommand{\indexsubitem}{(...)}" to "\setindexsubitem{(...)}" everywhere. Some other minor nits that I happened to come across.
* Converted to use new macros. This example demonstrate \method{} and, moreFred Drake1998-01-221-16/+17
