* A step on the way to making tzinfo classes writable by mortals: get ridTim Peters2002-12-301-17/+37
| | | | | | | of the timetz case. A tzinfo method will always see a datetimetz arg, or None, now. In the former case, it's still possible that it will get a datetimetz argument belonging to a different timezone. That will get fixed next.

|
* Make comparison and subtraction of aware objects ignore tzinfo if theTim Peters2002-12-271-23/+29
| | | | | | operands have identical tzinfo members (meaning object identity -- "is"). I misunderstood the intent here, reading wrong conclusion into conflicting clues.

* SF 658405: calendar.py to rely on the datetime module instead of the timeRaymond Hettinger2002-12-251-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | module. The code is shorter, more readable, faster, and dramatically increases the range of acceptable dates. Also, used the floor division operator in leapdays().
* Implemented datetime.astimezone() and datetimetz.astimezone().Tim Peters2002-12-251-0/+22
|
* Removed blurb admonishing users to raise an exception if the datetimeTim Peters2002-12-241-2/+1

* Added note about technical pickle limitation on tzinfo instances.Tim Peters2002-12-241-1/+6

* Implemented .replace() methods for date, datetime, datetimetz, time andTim Peters2002-12-241-1/+28

* Brought the strftime explanation into synch with the plain-text sandboxTim Peters2002-12-231-45/+56
| | | | | docs, and moved its section to the end (before the "C API" section, which latter doesn't really belong in the Library manual).
* Add in the datetime docs now that they pass LaTeX. Still ugly, but that canFred Drake2002-12-231-0/+1
| | | | be fixed.
* Lots of markup changes. This is still pretty sad, but passes LaTeXFred Drake2002-12-231-483/+558
| | | | and is mostly readable.
* Move the examples of concrete tzinfo classes to a separate file, so theFred Drake2002-12-231-0/+51
| | | | verbatim environment does not bollux page breaking.
* Added docs for (draft) pkgutil module.Fred Drake2002-12-232-0/+51

* Check in current, unfinished, draft of datetime docsAndrew M. Kuchling2002-12-181-0/+1139

* This is Richie Hindle's patchMichael W. Hudson2002-12-171-1/+11
| | | | | | | | [ 643835 ] Set Next Statement for Python debuggers with a few tweaks by me: adding an unsigned or two, mentioning that not all jumps are allowed in the doc for pdb, adding a NEWS item and a note to whatsnew, and AuCTeX doing something cosmetic to libpdb.tex.
* Add markup for base parameterNeal Norwitz2002-12-171-2/+2

* Fix SF # 641111, Undocumented side effect of evalNeal Norwitz2002-12-171-1/+6
| | | | | | | | Try to clear up confusion about the current globals being copied into a globals dict passed to eval(). This wording (more or less) was suggested in bug report. It should probably be made clearer. Backport candidate.
* Fix SF #642742, property() builtin not documentedNeal Norwitz2002-12-171-0/+78
| | | | | | | | Added doc for functions new to 2.2: classmethod property staticmethod super Taken from docstrings. Could use review. Hope there wasn't a reason why these shouldn't have been added. Backport candidate.
* Fixed bugGustavo Niemeyer2002-12-161-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [#521782] unreliable file.read() error handling * Objects/fileobject.c (file_read): Clear errors before leaving the loop in all situations, and also check if some data was read before exiting the loop with an EWOULDBLOCK exception. * Doc/lib/libstdtypes.tex * Objects/fileobject.c Document that sometimes a read() operation can return less data than what the user asked, if running in non-blocking mode. * Misc/NEWS Document the fix.

* Apply SF patch 652930: Add optional base argument to math.log(x[, base]).Raymond Hettinger2002-12-141-2/+4

* Enhance issubclass() and PyObject_IsSubclass() so that a tuple isWalter Dörwald2002-12-121-5/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* Patch #651621, approved by MvL.Just van Rossum2002-12-121-5/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows ZipFile.writestr() to be called with an archive file name instead of a ZipInfo instance: z = ZipFile("myarchive.zip", "w") z.writestr("foo/baz/file.ext", data) z.close() I found the old writestr() method very inconvenient for simple (but common) things. If called with a file name instead of a ZipInfo instance, the date_time is set to the current date/time, which makes sense to me for anonymous data.
