* bpo-16500: Allow registering at-fork handlers (#1715)Antoine Pitrou2017-05-271-0/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | * bpo-16500: Allow registering at-fork handlers * Address Serhiy's comments * Add doc for new C API * Add doc for new Python-facing function * Add NEWS entry + doc nit
* bpo-30470: Deprecate invalid ctypes call protection on Windows. (GH-1810)Mariatta2017-05-271-14/+6

* Fix the signature of JSONDecodeError (no end parameter). (#1827)Serhiy Storchaka2017-05-271-1/+1
| | | Unlikely to the simplejson module, json.JSONDecodeError doesn't accept the end argument.
* bpo-22702: Clarify documentation of str.join & bytes.join (GH-156)Sanyam Khurana2017-05-271-9/+9
| | | | | | | The "iterable iterable" phrasing created confusion between the term reference and the parameter name. This simplifies the phrasing to just use the parameter name without linking directly to the term definition.
* bpo-30420: List cwd parameter in subprocess convenience APIs (GH-1685)Alex Gaynor2017-05-261-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | Partially clarify the subprocess convenience API documentation by explicitly listing the `cwd` parameter in their abbreviated signatures. While this has been merged as an improvement, it doesn't fully resolve the issue, as the `cwd` should also be covered in the "Frequently Used Arguments" section, and the fact these APIs pass unlisted keyword arguments down to the lower level APIs is currently still unclear.

* bpo-30160: Clarify intended usage of wfile (gh-1300)jugglinmike2017-05-241-1/+2
| | | | | | The library does not enforce compliance with the HTTP protocol, so violations are not technically disallowed. Extend the stream's description to avoid suggesting that intentional protocol violations are not supported.

* bpo-30215: Make re.compile() locale agnostic. (#1361)Serhiy Storchaka2017-05-051-0/+5
| | | | | | Compiled regular expression objects with the re.LOCALE flag no longer depend on the locale at compile time. Only the locale at matching time affects the result of matching.
* bpo-30273: Update sysconfig (#1464)Victor Stinner2017-05-041-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | The AST_H_DIR variable was removed from Makefile.pre.in by the commit a5c62a8e9f0de6c4133825a5710984a3cd5e102b (bpo-23404). AST_H_DIR was hardcoded to "Include", so replace the removed variable by its content. Remove also ASDLGEN variable from sysconfig example since this variable was also removed.

* bpo-30052: Link `bytes` & `bytearray` to stdtypes not functions (GH-1271)csabella2017-04-262-81/+90
| | | | | | | | | | Builtin container types have two potential link targets in the docs: - their entry in the list of builtin callables - their type documentation This change brings `bytes` and `bytearray` into line with other container types by having cross-references default to linking to their type documentation, rather than their builtin callable entry.
