* SF patch #820195 by Wojtek Walczak (gminick at users.sourceforge.net):Guido van Rossum2003-10-082-0/+4
| | | | make obj.__contains__() returns True/False instead of 1/0.
* SF bug #812202: randint is always evenRaymond Hettinger2003-10-051-0/+8
| | | | | | | * Added C coded getrandbits(k) method that runs in linear time. * Call the new method from randrange() for ranges >= 2**53. * Adds a warning for generators not defining getrandbits() whenever they have a call to randrange() with too large of a population.

* Double-fix of crash in Unicode freelist handling.Jeremy Hylton2003-09-161-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a length-1 Unicode string was in the freelist and it was uninitialized or pointed to a very large (magnitude) negative number, the check unicode_latin1[unicode->str[0]] == unicode could cause a segmentation violation, e.g. unicode->str[0] is 0xcbcbcbcb. Fix this in two ways: 1. Change guard befor unicode_latin1[] to test against 256U. If I understand correctly, the unsigned long used to store UCS4 on my box was getting converted to a signed long to compare with the signed constant 256. 2. Change _PyUnicode_New() to make sure the first element of str is always initialized to zero. There are several places in the code where the caller can exit with an error before initializing any of str, which would leave junk in str[0]. Also, silence a compiler warning on pointer vs. int arithmetic. Bug fix candidate.
* SF #662923Raymond Hettinger2003-09-121-0/+4
| | | | | | Add support for the iterator and mapping protocols. For Py2.3, this was done for shelve, dumbdbm and other mapping objects, but not for bsddb and dbhash which were inadvertently missed.

* SF bug 801631: file.truncate fault on windows.Tim Peters2003-09-071-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | file_truncate(): C doesn't define what fflush(fp) does if fp is open for update, and the preceding I/O operation on fp was input. On Windows, fflush() actually changes the current file position then. Because Windows doesn't support ftruncate() directly, this not only caused Python's file.truncate() to change the file position (contra our docs), it also caused the file not to change size. Repaired by getting the initial file position at the start, restoring it at the end, and tossing all the complicated micro-efficiency checks trying to avoid "provably unnecessary" seeks. file.truncate() can't be a frequent operation, and seeking to the current file position has got to be cheap anyway. Bugfix candidate.

* This started opening files in text mode by default in the 2.3 release,Tim Peters2003-08-181-0/+6
| | | | | | | which is a disaster on Windows. Restored the binary default of all previous releases. Also minor code cleanups. Bugfix candidate!
* Improvements to set.py:Raymond Hettinger2003-08-171-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Relaxed the argument restrictions for non-operator methods. They now allow any iterable instead of requiring a set. This makes the module a little easier to use and paves the way for an efficient C implementation which can take better advantage of iterable arguments while screening out immutables. * Deprecated Set.update() because it now duplicates Set.union_update() * Adapted the tests and docs to include the above changes. * Added more test coverage including testing identities and checking to make sure non-restartable generators work as arguments. Will backport to Py2.3.1 so that the interface remains consistent across versions. The deprecation of update() will be changed to a FutureWarning.
* Make sets.py compatible with Py2.2Raymond Hettinger2003-08-151-0/+2

| | | | | | | | The fix is confined to the Windows installer. Not a bugfix candidate: the need for the new -n switch added here was introduced by moving to the idlefork IDLE (so this change isn't needed or helpful before 2.3).
