* Issue 6507: accept source strings directly in dis.dis(). Original patch by ↵Nick Coghlan2010-07-031-0/+2
| | | | Daniel Urban
* Some people have mistaken Python bytecode as being stable and unchanging. InBrett Cannon2010-07-021-0/+3
| | | | | | | | reality it's simply an implementation detail for CPython. This point is now clearly documented in both the docs for dis and the glossary. Closes issue #7829. Thanks to Terry Reedy for some initial suggestions on wording.

* Update PyUnicode_DecodeUTF8 from RFC 2279 to RFC 3629.Ezio Melotti2010-07-011-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) #8271: when a byte sequence is invalid, only the start byte and all the valid continuation bytes are now replaced by U+FFFD, instead of replacing the number of bytes specified by the start byte. See http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode5.2.0/ch03.pdf (pages 94-95); 2) 5- and 6-bytes-long UTF-8 sequences are now considered invalid (no changes in behavior); 3) Change the error messages "unexpected code byte" to "invalid start byte" and "invalid data" to "invalid continuation byte"; 4) Add an extensive set of tests in test_unicode; 5) Fix test_codeccallbacks because it was failing after this change.

* Implement importlib.abc.SourceLoader and deprecate PyLoader and PyPycLoader.Brett Cannon2010-06-271-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SourceLoader is a simplification of both PyLoader and PyPycLoader. If one only wants to use source, then they need to only implement get_data and get_filename. To also use bytecode -- sourceless loading is not supported -- then two abstract methods -- path_mtime and set_data -- need to be implemented. Compared to PyLoader and PyPycLoader, there are less abstract methods introduced and bytecode files become an optimization controlled by the ABC and hidden from the user (this need came about as PEP 3147 showed that not treating bytecode as an optimization can cause problems for compatibility). PyLoader is deprecated in favor of SourceLoader. To be compatible from Python 3.1 onwards, a subclass need only use simple methods for source_path and is_package. Otherwise conditional subclassing based on whether Python 3.1 or Python 3.2 is being is the only change. The documentation and docstring for PyLoader explain what is exactly needed. PyPycLoader is deprecated also in favor of SourceLoader. Because PEP 3147 shifted bytecode path details so much, there is no foolproof way to provide backwards-compatibility with SourceLoader. Because of this the class is simply deprecated and users should move to SourceLoader (and optionally PyLoader for Python 3.1). This does lead to a loss of support for sourceless loading unfortunately. At some point before Python 3.2 is released, SourceLoader will be moved over to importlib._bootstrap so that the core code of importlib relies on the new code instead of the old PyPycLoader code. This commit is being done now so that there is no issue in having the API in Python 3.1a1.

* Having CFLAGS come before OPT prevents silencing certain classes of warningsBrett Cannon2010-06-261-0/+2
| | | | | | | from the fact that OPT contains -Wall be default. This is annoying when compilers like clang have thorough debugging information about things that Python does extensively (e.g. -Wunused-value for unused return values caused by a macro use).

The fix for issue 4050 caused a regression: before that fix, source lines in the linecache would eventually be found by inspect. After the fix inspect reports an error earlier, and the source isn't found. The fix for the fix is to have getsourcefile look in the linecache for the file and return the psuedo-filename if the source is there, just as it already returns it if there is a PEP 302 loader. ........

That made it chop one too many characters off the end of the body part. Using \Z makes the match correct. Patch and test by Tony Nelson. ........
