* SF patch #756996: Bare except in ZipFile.testzip()Raymond Hettinger2003-06-271-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | (Contributed by Steven Taschuk) Replaces a bare except that caused all errors to be mis-reported as archive errors. Added a related NEWS item.
* SF patch #761519: Fixes for bugs 760703 and 757821Raymond Hettinger2003-06-271-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SF bug #760703: SocketHandler and LogRecord don't work well together SF bug #757821: logging module docs Applied Vinay Sajip's patch with a few minor fixups and a NEWS item. Patched __init__.py - added new function makeLogRecord (for bug report 760703). Patched handlers.py - updated some docstrings and deleted some old commented-out code. Patched test_logging.py to make use of makeLogRecord. Patched liblogging.tex to fill documentation gaps (both 760703 and bug 757821).
* A hack to ease compatibility with pre-2.3 Pythons: by default, doctestTim Peters2003-06-271-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | now accepts "True" when a test expects "1", and similarly for "False" versus "0". This is un-doctest-like, but on balance makes it much more pleasant to write doctests that pass under 2.2 and 2.3. I expect it to go away again, when 2.2 is forgotten. In the meantime, there's a new doctest module constant that can be passed to a new optional argument, if you want to turn this behavior off. Note that this substitution is very simple-minded: the expected and actual outputs have to consist of single tokens. No attempt is made, e.g., to accept [True, False] when a test expects [1, 0]. This is a simple hack for simple tests, and I intend to keep it that way.

* Remove short-circuitying grubbing by using last grubbed buffer. It'sKen Manheimer2003-06-171-9/+5
| | | | | | | | | evil - if the last grubbed buffer didn't happen to be the right one, you couldn't remedy. Mainline emacs compat - don't use third arg to buffer-substring (which was for explicitly identifying the buffer in which to seek the substring, and which turns out to be unnecessary).

* Fleshed out WeakKeyDictionary.__delitem__ NEWS to cover issues raised onTim Peters2003-05-251-5/+13
| | | | | | | | | Python-Dev. Fixed typos in test comments. Added some trivial new test guts to show the parallelism (now) among __delitem__, __setitem__ and __getitem__ wrt error conditions. Still a bugfix candidate for 2.2.3 final, but waiting for Fred to get a chance to chime in.
* SF 742860: WeakKeyDictionary __delitem__ uses iterkeysTim Peters2003-05-251-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Someone review this, please! Final releases are getting close, Fred (the weakref guy) won't be around until Tuesday, and the pre-patch code can indeed raise spurious RuntimeErrors in the presence of threads or mutating comparison functions. See the bug report for my confusions: I can't see any reason for why __delitem__ iterated over the keys. The new one-liner implementation is much faster, can't raise RuntimeError, and should be better-behaved in all respects wrt threads. New tests test_weak_keyed_bad_delitem and test_weak_keyed_cascading_deletes fail before this patch. Bugfix candidate for 2.2.3 too, if someone else agrees with this patch.
* SF bug 705231: Assertion failed, python aborts.Tim Peters2003-05-241-0/+6
| | | | | | | float_pow(): Don't let the platform pow() raise -1.0 to an integer power anymore; at least glibc gets it wrong in some cases. Note that math.pow() will continue to deliver wrong (but platform-native) results in such cases.
* PyType_Ready(): Complain if the type is a base type, and gc'able, andTim Peters2003-05-211-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tp_free is NULL or PyObject_Del at the end. Because it's a base type it must call tp_free in its dealloc function, and because it's gc'able it must not call PyObject_Del. inherit_slots(): Don't inherit tp_free unless the type and its base agree about whether they're gc'able. If the type is gc'able and the base is not, and the base uses the default PyObject_Del for its tp_free, give the type PyObject_GC_Del for its tp_free (the appropriate default for a gc'able type). cPickle.c: The Pickler and Unpickler types claim to be base classes and gc'able, but their dealloc functions didn't call tp_free. Repaired that. Also call PyType_Ready() on these typeobjects, so that the correct (PyObject_GC_Del) default memory-freeing function gets plugged into these types' tp_free slots.

* datetime.timedelta is now subclassable in Python. The new test showsTim Peters2003-05-171-2/+2
| | | | | | | | one good use: a subclass adding a method to express the duration as a number of hours (or minutes, or whatever else you want to add). The native breakdown into days+seconds+us is often clumsy. Incidentally moved a large chunk of object-initialization code closer to the top of the file, to avoid worse forward-reference trickery.

* More fixes according to SF 549151:Guido van Rossum2003-05-161-0/+5
| | | | | | | | - When redirecting, always use GET. This is common practice and more-or-less sanctioned by the HTTP standard. - Add a handler for 307 redirection, which becomes an error for POST, but a regular redirect for GET and HEAD.

* SF bug #730296: Unexpected Changes in list IteratorRaymond Hettinger2003-05-071-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | Reverted a Py2.3b1 change to iterator in subclasses of list and tuple. They had been changed to use __getitem__ whenever it had been overriden in the subclass. This caused some usabilty and performance problems. Also, it was inconsistent with the rest of python where many container methods access the underlying object directly without first checking for an overridden getter. Users needing a change in iterator behavior should override it directly.
