| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Patch #683592 revisited, after discussions with MvL:Just van Rossum2003-03-031-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - 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.

* Unparenting BZ2File, as discussed in SF patch #661796.Gustavo Niemeyer2003-02-111-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Modules/bz2module.c (BZ2FileObject): Now the structure includes a pointer to a file object, instead of "inheriting" one. Also, some members were copied from the PyFileObject structure to avoid dealing with the internals of that structure from outside fileobject.c. (Util_GetLine,Util_DropReadAhead,Util_ReadAhead,Util_ReadAheadGetLineSkip, BZ2File_write,BZ2File_writelines,BZ2File_init,BZ2File_dealloc, BZ2Comp_dealloc,BZ2Decomp_dealloc): These functions were adapted to the change above. (BZ2File_seek,BZ2File_close): Use PyObject_CallMethod instead of getting the function attribute locally. (BZ2File_notsup): Removed, since it's not necessary anymore to overload truncate(), and readinto() with dummy functions. (BZ2File_methods): Added xreadlines() as an alias to BZ2File_getiter, and removed truncate() and readinto(). (BZ2File_get_newlines,BZ2File_get_closed,BZ2File_get_mode,BZ2File_get_name, BZ2File_getset): Implemented getters for "newlines", "mode", and "name". (BZ2File_members): Implemented "softspace" member. (BZ2File_init): Reworked to create a file instance instead of initializing itself as a file subclass. Also, pass "name" object untouched to the file constructor, and use PyObject_CallFunction instead of building the argument tuple locally. (BZ2File_Type): Set tp_new to PyType_GenericNew, tp_members to BZ2File_members, and tp_getset to BZ2File_getset. (initbz2): Do not set BZ2File_Type.tp_base nor BZ2File_Type.tp_new. * Doc/lib/libbz2.tex Do not mention that BZ2File inherits from the file type.
* Fix so it compiles at least.Michael W. Hudson2003-02-111-1/+1
