* Patch supplied by Burton Radons for his own SF bug #487390: ModifyingGuido van Rossum2001-12-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | type.__module__ behavior. This adds the module name and a dot in front of the type name in every type object initializer, except for built-in types (and those that already had this). Note that it touches lots of Mac modules -- I have no way to test these but the changes look right. Apologies if they're not. This also touches the weakref docs, which contains a sample type object initializer. It also touches the mmap test output, because the mmap type's repr is included in that output. It touches object.h to put the correct description in a comment.

* SF bug #488514: -Qnew needs workTim Peters2001-12-061-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Big Hammer to implement -Qnew as PEP 238 says it should work (a global option affecting all instances of "/"). pydebug.h, main.c, pythonrun.c: define a private _Py_QnewFlag flag, true iff -Qnew is passed on the command line. This should go away (as the comments say) when true division becomes The Rule. This is deliberately not exposed to runtime inspection or modification: it's a one-way one-shot switch to pretend you're using Python 3. ceval.c: when _Py_QnewFlag is set, treat BINARY_DIVIDE as BINARY_TRUE_DIVIDE. test_{descr, generators, zipfile}.py: fiddle so these pass under -Qnew too. This was just a matter of s!/!//! in test_generators and test_zipfile. test_descr was trickier, as testbinop() is passed assumptions that "/" is the same as calling a "__div__" method; put a temporary hack there to call "__truediv__" instead when the method name is "__div__" and 1/2 evaluates to 0.5. Three standard tests still fail under -Qnew (on Windows; somebody please try the Linux tests with -Qnew too! Linux runs a whole bunch of tests Windows doesn't): test_augassign test_class test_coercion I can't stay awake longer to stare at this (be my guest). Offhand cures weren't obvious, nor was it even obvious that cures are possible without major hackery. Question: when -Qnew is in effect, should calls to __div__ magically change into calls to __truediv__? See "major hackery" at tail end of last paragraph <wink>.

* Fix SF bug #486144: Uninitialized __slot__ vrbl is None.Guido van Rossum2001-12-041-0/+4
| | | | | | | There's now a new structmember code, T_OBJECT_EX, which is used for all __slot__ variables (except __weakref__, which has special behavior anyway). This new code raises AttributeError when the variable is NULL rather than converting NULL to None.
* mysnprintf.c: Massive rewrite of PyOS_snprintf and PyOS_vsnprintf, toTim Peters2001-12-031-5/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | use wrappers on all platforms, to make this as consistent as possible x- platform (in particular, make sure there's at least one \0 byte in the output buffer). Also document more of the truth about what these do. getargs.c, seterror(): Three computations of remaining buffer size were backwards, thus telling PyOS_snprintf the buffer is larger than it actually is. This matters a lot now that PyOS_snprintf ensures there's a trailing \0 byte (because it didn't get the truth about the buffer size, it was storing \0 beyond the true end of the buffer). sysmodule.c, mywrite(): Simplify, now that PyOS_vsnprintf guarantees to produce a \0 byte.

* SF bug #475327: type() produces incorrect error msgTim Peters2001-10-271-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | object.h: Added PyType_CheckExact macro. typeobject.c, type_new(): + Use the new macro. + Assert that the arguments have the right types rather than do incomplete runtime checks "sometimes". + If this isn't the 1-argument flavor() of type, and there aren't 3 args total, produce a "types() takes 1 or 3 args" msg before PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords produces a "takes exactly 3" msg.
* Added two new functions to conveniently call functions/methods from C.Fred Drake2001-10-261-5/+23
| | | | | | | PyObject_CallFunctionObArgs() and PyObject_CallMethodObArgs() have the advantage that no format strings need to be parsed. The CallMethod variant also avoids creating a new string object in order to retrieve a method from an object as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | outer level, the iterator protocol is used for memory-efficiency (the outer sequence may be very large if fully materialized); at the inner level, PySequence_Fast() is used for time-efficiency (these should always be sequences of length 2). dictobject.c, new functions PyDict_{Merge,Update}FromSeq2. These are wholly analogous to PyDict_{Merge,Update}, but process a sequence-of-2- sequences argument instead of a mapping object. For now, I left these functions file static, so no corresponding doc changes. It's tempting to change dict.update() to allow a sequence-of-2-seqs argument too. Also changed the name of dictionary's keyword argument from "mapping" to "x". Got a better name? "mapping_or_sequence_of_pairs" isn't attractive, although more so than "mosop" <wink>. abstract.h, abstract.tex: Added new PySequence_Fast_GET_SIZE function, much faster than going thru the all-purpose PySequence_Size. libfuncs.tex: - Document dictionary(). - Fiddle tuple() and list() to admit that their argument is optional. - The long-winded repetitions of "a sequence, a container that supports iteration, or an iterator object" is getting to be a PITA. Many months ago I suggested factoring this out into "iterable object", where the definition of that could include being explicit about generators too (as is, I'm not sure a reader outside of PythonLabs could guess that "an iterator object" includes a generator call). - Please check my curly braces -- I'm going blind <0.9 wink>. abstract.c, PySequence_Tuple(): When PyObject_GetIter() fails, leave its error msg alone now (the msg it produces has improved since PySequence_Tuple was generalized to accept iterable objects, and PySequence_Tuple was also stomping on the msg in cases it shouldn't have even before PyObject_GetIter grew a better msg).

By adding the wrapper docstrings to the slotdef structure, the slotdefs array can serve as the data structure that drives add_operators(); the wrapper descriptor contains a pointer to slotdef structure. This replaces lots of custom code from add_operators() by a loop over the slotdefs array, and does away with all the tab_xxx tables.

* SF patch #470578: Fixes to synchronize unicode() and str()Guido van Rossum2001-10-191-10/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements what we have discussed on python-dev late in September: str(obj) and unicode(obj) should behave similar, while the old behaviour is retained for unicode(obj, encoding, errors). The patch also adds a new feature with which objects can provide unicode(obj) with input data: the __unicode__ method. Currently no new tp_unicode slot is implemented; this is left as option for the future. Note that PyUnicode_FromEncodedObject() no longer accepts Unicode objects as input. The API name already suggests that Unicode objects do not belong in the list of acceptable objects and the functionality was only needed because PyUnicode_FromEncodedObject() was being used directly by unicode(). The latter was changed in the discussed way: * unicode(obj) calls PyObject_Unicode() * unicode(obj, encoding, errors) calls PyUnicode_FromEncodedObject() One thing left open to discussion is whether to leave the PyUnicode_FromObject() API as a thin API extension on top of PyUnicode_FromEncodedObject() or to turn it into a (macro) alias for PyObject_Unicode() and deprecate it. Doing so would have some surprising consequences though, e.g. u"abc" + 123 would turn out as u"abc123"... [Marc-Andre didn't have time to check this in before the deadline. I hope this is OK, Marc-Andre! You can still make changes and commit them on the trunk after the branch has been made, but then please mail Barry a context diff if you want the change to be merged into the 2.2b1 release branch.

* SF patch #462296: Add attributes to os.stat results; by Nick Mathewson.Guido van Rossum2001-10-181-0/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a big one, touching lots of files. Some of the platforms aren't tested yet. Briefly, this changes the return value of the os/posix functions stat(), fstat(), statvfs(), fstatvfs(), and the time functions localtime(), gmtime(), and strptime() from tuples into pseudo-sequences. When accessed as a sequence, they behave exactly as before. But they also have attributes like st_mtime or tm_year. The stat return value, moreover, has a few platform-specific attributes that are not available through the sequence interface (because everybody expects the sequence to have a fixed length, these couldn't be added there). If your platform's struct stat doesn't define st_blksize, st_blocks or st_rdev, they won't be accessible from Python either. (Still missing is a documentation update.)
* Partial patch from SF #452266, by Jason Petrone.Guido van Rossum2001-10-161-1/+1

Note that if the testlist contains more than one test, a trailing comma is still allowed, for maximum backward compatibility; but this example is not: [(x, y) for x in range(10), for y in range(10)] ^ The fix involved creating a new nonterminal 'testlist_safe' whose definition doesn't allow the trailing comma if there's only one test: testlist_safe: test [(',' test)+ [',']]

* SF bug [#467145] Python 2.2a4 build problem on HPUX 11.0.Tim Peters2001-10-111-12/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The platform requires 8-byte alignment for doubles, but the GC header was 12 bytes and that threw off the natural alignment of the double members of a subtype of complex. The fix puts the GC header into a union with a double as the other member, to force no-looser-than double alignment of GC headers. On boxes that require 8-byte alignment for doubles, this may add pad bytes to the GC header accordingly; ditto for platforms that *prefer* 8-byte alignment for doubles. On platforms that don't care, it shouldn't change the memory layout (because the size of the old GC header is certainly greater than the size of a double on all platforms, so unioning with a double shouldn't change size or alignment on such boxes).
* Keep track of a type's subclasses (subtypes), in tp_subclasses, whichGuido van Rossum2001-10-081-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | is a list of weak references to types (new-style classes). Make this accessible to Python as the function __subclasses__ which returns a list of types -- we don't want Python programmers to be able to manipulate the raw list. In order to make this possible, I also had to add weak reference support to type objects. This will eventually be used together with a trap on attribute assignment for dynamic classes for a major speed-up without losing the dynamic properties of types: when a __foo__ method is added to a class, the class and all its subclasses will get an appropriate tp_foo slot function.
* Guido suggests, and I agree, to insist that SIZEOF_VOID_P be a power of 2.Tim Peters2001-10-071-28/+24
| | | | | | This simplifies the rounding in _PyObject_VAR_SIZE, allows to restore the pre-rounding calling sequence, and allows some nice little simplifications in its callers. I'm still making it return a size_t, though.
* _PyObject_VAR_SIZE: always round up to a multiple-of-pointer-size value.Tim Peters2001-10-061-11/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As Guido suggested, this makes the new subclassing code substantially simpler. But the mechanics of doing it w/ C macro semantics are a mess, and _PyObject_VAR_SIZE has a new calling sequence now. Question: The PyObject_NEW_VAR macro appears to be part of the public API. Regardless of what it expands to, the notion that it has to round up the memory it allocates is new, and extensions containing the old PyObject_NEW_VAR macro expansion (which was embedded in the PyObject_NEW_VAR expansion) won't do this rounding. But the rounding isn't actually *needed* except for new-style instances with dict pointers after a variable-length blob of embedded data. So my guess is that we do not need to bump the API version for this (as the rounding isn't needed for anything an extension can do unless it's recompiled anyway). What's your guess?
