* Major overhaul of timeout sockets:Guido van Rossum2002-06-131-21/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - setblocking(0) and settimeout(0) are now equivalent, and ditto for setblocking(1) and settimeout(None). - Don't raise an exception from internal_select(); let the final call report the error (this means you will get an EAGAIN error instead of an ETIMEDOUT error -- I don't care). - Move the select to inside the Py_{BEGIN,END}_ALLOW_THREADS brackets, so other theads can run (this was a bug in the original code). - Redid the retry logic in connect() and connect_ex() to avoid masking errors. This probably doesn't work for Windows yet; I'll fix that next. It may also fail on other platforms, depending on what retrying a connect does; I need help with this. - Get rid of the retry logic in accept(). I don't think it was needed at all. But I may be wrong.
* Add documentation for PyObject_RichCompare() and PyObject_RichCompareBool(),Fred Drake2002-06-131-0/+42
| | | | | constributed by David Abrahams. This closes SF patch #568081.
* Add version annotations for some older changes to the calendar module.Fred Drake2002-06-131-0/+7

| | | | | | ['BINARY_FLOOR_DIVIDE', 'BINARY_TRUE_DIVIDE', 'INPLACE_FLOOR_DIVIDE', 'INPLACE_TRUE_DIVIDE', 'GET_ITER', 'YIELD_VALUE', 'FOR_ITER', 'CONTINUE_LOOP']
* This is my nearly two year old patchMichael W. Hudson2002-06-114-15/+76
| | | | | | | | | [ 400998 ] experimental support for extended slicing on lists somewhat spruced up and better tested than it was when I wrote it. Includes docs & tests. The whatsnew section needs expanding, and arrays should support extended slices -- later.
* Completely revise markup for the list of list methods; the new markup matchesFred Drake2002-06-111-26/+35
| | | | | | | the semantics and presentation used in the library reference. Added an explanation of the use of [...] to denote optional arguments, since this is the only use of this in a signature line. Closes SF bug #567127.

| | | | | | | The file returned by tmpfile() has mode w+b, so use that in the call to PyFile_FromFile(). Bugfix candidate.

* SF patch 555085 (timeout socket implementation) by Michael Gilfix.Guido van Rossum2002-06-061-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I've made considerable changes to Michael's code, specifically to use the select() system call directly and to store the timeout as a C double instead of a Python object; internally, -1.0 (or anything negative) represents the None from the API. I'm not 100% sure that all corner cases are covered correctly, so please keep an eye on this. Next I'm going to try it Windows before Tim complains. No way is this a bugfix candidate. :-)

* Add constants BOM_UTF8, BOM_UTF16, BOM_UTF16_LE, BOM_UTF16_BE,Walter Dörwald2002-06-041-10/+15
| | | | | | | | | | BOM_UTF32, BOM_UTF32_LE and BOM_UTF32_BE that represent the Byte Order Mark in UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32 encodings for little and big endian systems. The old names BOM32_* and BOM64_* were off by a factor of 2. This closes SF bug http://www.python.org/sf/555360
* Addressed SF bug 421973 (finally).Guido van Rossum2002-06-031-46/+88
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rewrote the subsection on coercion rules (and made it a proper subsection, with a label). The new section is much less precise, because precise rules would be too hard to give (== I don't know what they are any more :-). OTOH, the new section gives much more up-to-date information. Also noted that __coerce__ may return NotImplemented, with the same meaning as None. I beg Fred forgiveness: my use of \code{} is probably naive. Please fix this and other markup nits. An index entry would be nice. This could be a 2.2 bugfix candidate, if we bother about old docs (Fred?)
* 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.
