* I'd forgotten that tcsh was the default for 10.1, but SF's 10.1 systemBarry Warsaw2002-10-141-4/+5

* News for 2.2.2b1. I'm exhausted -- this was a multi-hour job ofGuido van Rossum2002-10-071-24/+250
| | | | | poring over the logs. Quite likely I've forgotten some things, introduced typos, and organized things less than ideally.
* Backport, at the reqest of Kevin Jacobs:Guido van Rossum2002-10-071-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | - Changed new-style class instantiation so that when C's __new__ method returns something that's not a C instance, its __init__ is not called. [SF bug #537450] XXX This is arguably a semantic change, but it's hard to imagine a reason for wanting to depend on the old behavior. If problems with this are reported within a week of the release of 2.2.2 beta 1, we may revert this change.

| | | | | | | | Raise ValueError if user passes a size to mmap which is larger than the file. Also need Tim's fix in test_mmap.py, 1.22 which flushes the file before mmap'ing it.
* backport gvanrossum's checkin ofMichael W. Hudson2002-08-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | revision 1.180 of ACKS date: 2002/06/10 20:00:52; author: gvanrossum; state: Exp; lines: +1 -0 SF patch 564549 (Erik Andersén). The WeakKeyDictionary constructor didn't work when a dict arg was given. Fixed by moving a line. Also adding a unit test. Bugfix candidate.
* Fix some endcase bugs in unicode rfind()/rindex() and endswith().Guido van Rossum2002-08-201-0/+1
| | | | | | These were reported and fixed by Inyeol Lee in SF bug 595350. The endswith() bug is already fixed in 2.3; I'll fix the others in 2.3 next.
* SF bug 595919: popenN return only text mode pipesTim Peters2002-08-191-0/+4
| | | | | popen2() and popen3() created text-mode pipes even when binary mode was asked for. This was specific to Windows.

* Backport:Guido van Rossum2002-08-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | | SF patch 588728 (Nathan Srebro). The __delete__ method wrapper for descriptors was not supported (I added a test, too.)
* Attempting to resurrect a dying instance of a new-style class in aTim Peters2002-07-111-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | __del__ method died with Fatal Python error: GC object already in linked list in both release and debug builds. Fixed that. Added a new test that dies without the fix.
* SF bug 578752: COUNT_ALLOCS vs heap typesTim Peters2002-07-081-1/+9
| | | | | | | | Repair segfaults and infinite loops in COUNT_ALLOCS builds in the presence of new-style (heap-allocated) classes/types. Note: test_gc fails in a COUNT_ALLOCS build now, because it expects a new-style class to get garbage collected.
* PyNode_AddChild(): Backporting an aggressive over-allocation policyTim Peters2002-07-081-1/+7
| | | | | when a parse node grows a very large number of children. This sidesteps platform realloc() disasters on several platforms.

* Backport:Guido van Rossum2002-06-121-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | SF bug 567538: Generator can crash the interpreter (Finn Bock). This was a simple typo. Strange that the compiler didn't catch it! Instead of WHY_CONTINUE, two tests used CONTINUE_LOOP, which isn't a why_code at all, but an opcode; but even though 'why' is declared as an enum, comparing it to an int is apparently not even worth a warning -- not in gcc, and not in VC++. :-(

* Backport to 2.2.x:Guido van Rossum2002-06-041-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Address SF bug 519621: slots weren't traversed by GC. While I was at it, I added a tp_clear handler and changed the tp_dealloc handler to use the clear_slots helper for the tp_clear handler. Also set mp->flags = READONLY for the __weakref__ pseudo-slot. [Note that I am *not* backporting the part of that patch that tightened the __slot__ rules.]

* SF bug 543148: Memory leak with stackframes + inspect.Tim Peters2002-04-131-0/+19
| | | | | | | | Put a bound on the number of frameobjects that can live in the frameobject free_list. Also fixed on the trunk. I don't intend to backport to 2.1 (too much work -- lots of cyclic structures leak there).
