* Patch #1051321 (fixes bugs 1010196, 1013525), by Mike Brown:Johannes Gijsbers2005-01-091-9/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | * Document hasFeature(), createDocument(), CreateDocumentType(), hasAttribute(), hasAttributeNS(). * In the documentation for createDocument(), it is now stated that the Python DOM API allows implementations to forego creation of the document element child node, if no namespace and local name arguments are given. (This possibility is left open and unaddressed in the W3C spec). * Addition by me: use 'name' rather than 'attname', for consistency with the DOM specification and the Python DOM API implementation.

* Patch #943206:Johannes Gijsbers2005-01-081-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | `glob.glob()` currently calls itself recursively to build a list of matches of the dirname part of the pattern and then filters by the basename part. This is effectively BFS. ``glob.glob('*/*/*/*/*/foo')`` will build a huge list of all directories 5 levels deep even if only a handful of them contain a ``foo`` entry. A generator-based recusion would never have to store these list at once by implementing DFS. This patch converts the `glob` function to an `iglob` recursive generator . `glob()` now just returns ``list(iglob(pattern))``. I also cleaned up the code a bit (reduced duplicate `has_magic()` checks and created a second `glob0` helper func so that the main loop need not be duplicated). Thanks to Cherniavsky Beni for the patch!
