* Make the add*() helper functions more robust for use after intializationFred Drake2001-07-201-6/+33
| | | | | | | | is complete: recompute _dirs_in_sys_path each time these functions are entered after module initialization is complete, and reset before returning to user code. This closes SF patch #442983.
* Copying this 2.1.1 bugfix to the trunk:Guido van Rossum2001-07-201-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | Fix showstopper SF bug #442983: use of site.addsitedir() was broken because it references the global dirs_in_sys_path which is deleted. The fix avoids deleting that global. (My email through python.org or digicool.com is non-functional at the moment; use gvanrossum@home.com to reach me.)
* Actually remove directories from sys.path if they do not exist; the intentFred Drake2001-07-121-0/+4
| | | | is to avoid as many stat() calls as we can.
* PEP 250: Add lib/site-packages to sys.path on Windows; also sys.prefixTim Peters2001-07-121-3/+1
| | | | to sys.path if os.sep == ':' (Macs?). See PEP 250.
* Avoid using os.path.normcase() on sys.path elements; doing so causes pathsFred Drake2001-07-021-19/+22
| | | | | | to be presented in an unfamiliar case on case-preserving filesystems. This closes SF patch #436173.

* Two minor changes for better Jython compatibility. Finn Bock says:Barry Warsaw2001-03-231-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Change 1: Not all 'modules' in sys.modules have a sensible __file__ attribute. Some of our java package can have the __file__ attribute set to None. Change 2: In jython we have the jython license file in <root> and the CPython license file in <root>/Lib. By reversing the search sequence jython will find and show the jython license file before the CPython file. Closes SF patch #405853.

* A hack to augment sys.path with the build/lib.<platform> directoryGuido van Rossum2001-01-191-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | created by Andrew's setup.py script, *if* we're actually running from the build directory. (The test for that: whether the sys.path[-1] ends in "/Modules".) This has one disadvantage: it imports a fair amount of code from the distutils package, just in order to be able to calculate the correct pathname. See if I care. :-)

* Fix a few problems with the _Printer class and the license variable.Guido van Rossum2000-10-031-23/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. repr(license) will no longer print to stdout and read from stdin; you have to use license(). `license` is a short message explaining this. 2. Use lazy initialization so that startup isn't slowed down by the search for the LICENSE file. 3. repr(license) actually returns the desired string, rather than printing to stdout and returning ''. (Why didn't we think of this before?) 4. Use the pythonlabs license URL as the license fallback instead of the CNRI license handle.
* Convert all entries on sys.path to absolute paths, and also update theFred Drake2000-09-281-8/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | __file__ attributes of already-imported modules to be absolute. This helps robustify the interpreter against os.chdir() calls from the application. Only remove setdefaultencoding() from sys if it exists; if this module is run as a script (since there is a _test() function that gets run), it broke because the script attempts to remove it again after the import of site has already done so. This allows the module to be run as a script again. makepath(): New function, standardizes all pathname normalization in one place.
* sys.setdefaultencoding() should only be called in case the standardMarc-André Lemburg2000-09-181-2/+3
| | | | | | | | default encoding ("ascii") is changed. This safes quite a few cycles during startup since the first call to .setdefaultencoding() will initialize the codec registry and the encodings package. See python-dev for a discussion (Subject: "[Python-Dev] [comp.lang.python] sys.setdefaultencoding (2.0b1)").

* Marc-Andre Lemburg <mal@lemburg.com>:Marc-André Lemburg2000-06-071-2/+37
| | | | | | | | | | Added support to set the default encoding of strings at startup time to the values defined by the C locale. The sys.setdefaultencoding() API is deleted after having set up the encoding, so that user code cannot subsequentely change the setting. This effectively means that only site.py may alter the default setting.
