* | Bug #132921: None treated differently in cmp() / sort() in 2.1a2. | Tim Peters | 2001-02-18 | 1 | -0/+7 |
| | | | | Just mentioning that in the NEWS file. | ||||

* | SF bug #131225: sys.winver is still '2.0' in python 2.1a2. | Tim Peters | 2001-02-09 | 1 | -0/+1 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SF patch #103683: Alternative dll version resources. Changes similar to the patch. MarkH should review. File version and Product version text strings now 2.1a2. 64-bit file and product version numbers are now PY_MAJOR_VERSION, PY_MINOR_VERSION, messy, PYTHON_API_VERSION where messy = PY_MICRO_VERSION*1000 + PY_RELEASE_LEVEL*10 + PY_RELEASE_SERIAL Updated company name to "Digital Creations 2". Copyright now lists Guido; "C in a circle" symbol used instead of (C). Comments added so this is less likely to get flubbed again, and #if/#error guys added to trigger if the version number manipulations above overflow. | ||||

* | Clarify the news item about "from M import X" if "M is not a real | Guido van Rossum | 2001-02-03 | 1 | -3/+3 |

* | Teach Windows build and installer about new _symtable module/DLL. | Tim Peters | 2001-02-02 | 1 | -1/+4 |
| | |||||
* | Fix spelling errors. | Jeremy Hylton | 2001-02-02 | 1 | -7/+12 |
| | | | | | | Add note about _symtable. Add note that 'from ... import *' restriction may go away -- and move the whole entry closer to the top, because it might bite people. | ||||
* | Patch derived from Trent's 101162: a Python/C API testing framework. | Tim Peters | 2001-02-02 | 1 | -2/+11 |
| | | | | STILL NEEDS UNIX BUILD CHANGES. | ||||

| | |||||
* | continue now allowed in try block | Jeremy Hylton | 2001-02-01 | 1 | -0/+4 |
| | |||||
* | Add item about nested scopes. | Jeremy Hylton | 2001-02-01 | 1 | -6/+39 |
| | | | | | Revise item about restriction on 'from ... import *'. It was in the wrong section and the section restriction was removed. | ||||
* | Added comments about the weak reference support. | Fred Drake | 2001-02-01 | 1 | -0/+6 |
| | |||||
* | Change random.seed() so that it can get at the full range of possible | Tim Peters | 2001-02-01 | 1 | -0/+10 |
| | | | | | | | | internal states. Put the old .seed() (which could only get at about the square root of the # of possibilities) under the new name .whseed(), for bit-level compatibility with older versions. This occurred to me while reviewing effbot's book (he found himself stumbling over .seed() more than once there ...). | ||||
* | Document the two changes to the mailbox.py module: | Barry Warsaw | 2001-01-31 | 1 | -0/+7 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | - All constructors grow an optional argument `factory' which is a callable used when new message instances are created by the next() methods. Defaults to the rfc822.Message class. - A new subclass of UnixMailbox is added, called PortableUnixMailbox. It's identical to UnixMailbox, but uses a more portable test for From_ delimiter lines. With PortableUnixMailbox, any line that starts with "From " is considered a delimiter (this should really check for two newlines before the F, but it doesn't. | ||||
* | Docs for new Windows zlib build procedure. | Tim Peters | 2001-01-31 | 1 | -1/+6 |
| | |||||
* | add note about two kinds of illegal imports that are now checked | Jeremy Hylton | 2001-01-30 | 1 | -0/+6 |
| | |||||
* | Added news of function comparison and hashing by identity | Moshe Zadka | 2001-01-29 | 1 | -0/+3 |
| | |||||
* | SF bug #130306: statcache.py full of thread problems. | Tim Peters | 2001-01-28 | 1 | -0/+1 |
| | | | | Fixed the thread races. Function forget_dir was also utterly Unix-specific. | ||||
* | SF bug http://sourceforge.net/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=130242&group_id=5470 | Tim Peters | 2001-01-27 | 1 | -0/+1 |
| | | | | | | | | SF patch http://sourceforge.net/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=103453&group_id=5470 PyMember_Set of T_CHAR always raises exception. Unfortunately, this is a use of a C API function that Python itself never makes, so there's no .py test I can check in to verify this stays fixed. But the fault in the code is obvious, and Dave Cole's patch just as obviously fixes it. | ||||
* | Added news about repr(string). | Tim Peters | 2001-01-27 | 1 | -0/+8 |
| | |||||
* | SF bug 130030: Claim of bad betavariate algorithm. | Tim Peters | 2001-01-26 | 1 | -1/+2 |
| | |||||
* | Fix bugs introduced by rewrite (in particular, time-based initialization | Tim Peters | 2001-01-25 | 1 | -5/+10 |
| | | | | | | | got broken). Also added new method .jumpahead(N). This finally gives us a semi-decent answer to how Python's RNGs can be used safely and efficiently in multithreaded programs (although it requires the user to use the new machinery!). | ||||
* | Reworked random.py so that it no longer depends on, and offers all the | Tim Peters | 2001-01-25 | 1 | -0/+13 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | functionality of, whrandom.py. Also closes all the "XXX" todos in random.py. New frequently-requested functions/methods getstate() and setstate(). All exported functions are now bound methods of a hidden instance. Killed all unintended exports. Updated the docs. FRED: The more I fiddle the docs, the less I understand the exact intended use of the \var, \code, \method tags. Please review critically. GUIDO: See email. I updated NEWS as if whrandom were deprecated; I think it should be. | ||||

* | Make the 'time' argument to the timemodule functions strftime, asctime, | Thomas Wouters | 2001-01-19 | 1 | -0/+4 |
| | | | | | | ctime, gmtime and localtime optional, defaulting to 'the current time' in all cases. Adjust docs, add news item. Also convert all argument-handling to METH_VARARGS. Closes SF patch #103265. | ||||

* | - Add note about complex numbers. | Guido van Rossum | 2001-01-18 | 1 | -9/+16 |
| | | | | | | - Changed description of rich comparisons to emphasize that < and > (etc.) are each other's reflection. Also use this word in the note about the demise of __rcmp__. | ||||
* | Variant of SF patch 103252: Startup optimize: read *.pyc as string, not with ↵ | Tim Peters | 2001-01-18 | 1 | -0/+1 |
| | | | | getc(). | ||||
* | This patch adds a new builtin unistr() which behaves like str() | Marc-André Lemburg | 2001-01-17 | 1 | -0/+8 |
| | | | | | | | | | | except that it always returns Unicode objects. A new C API PyObject_Unicode() is also provided. This closes patch #101664. Written by Marc-Andre Lemburg. Copyright assigned to Guido van Rossum. | ||||
* | News item for rich comparisons. | Guido van Rossum | 2001-01-17 | 1 | -0/+43 |
| | | | | | (I'm going to check in some more uses of rich comparisons, but the basic feature should be in place now.) | ||||
