* SF bug 533625 (Armin Rigo). rexec: potential security holeGuido van Rossum2002-05-311-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | If a rexec instance allows writing in the current directory (a common thing to do), there's a way to execute bogus bytecode. Fix this by not allowing imports from .pyc files (in a way that allows a site to configure things so that .pyc files *are* allowed, if writing is not allowed). I'll apply this to 2.2 and 2.1 too.

* Mostly in SequenceMatcher.{__chain_b, find_longest_match}:Tim Peters2002-04-291-14/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | This now does a dynamic analysis of which elements are so frequently repeated as to constitute noise. The primary benefit is an enormous speedup in find_longest_match, as the innermost loop can have factors of 100s less potential matches to worry about, in cases where the sequences have many duplicate elements. In effect, this zooms in on sequences of non-ubiquitous elements now. While I like what I've seen of the effects so far, I still consider this experimental. Please give it a try!

| | | | | | | | | | | | closes SF #514433 can now pass 'None' as the filename for the bsddb.*open functions, and you'll get an in-memory temporary store. docs are ripped out of the bsddb dbopen man page. Fred may want to clean them up. Considering this for 2.2, but not 2.1.

| | | | | | | | | | Add a method zfill to str, unicode and UserString and change Lib/string.py accordingly. This activates the zfill version in unicodeobject.c that was commented out and implements the same in stringobject.c. It also adds the test for unicode support in Lib/string.py back in and uses repr() instead() of str() (as it was before Lib/string.py 1.62)
