* added a bit about the change to the thread tickerSkip Montanaro2002-09-031-0/+9
|
* expose PYTHON_API_VERSION macro as sys.api_version. Closes patch # 601456.Skip Montanaro2002-09-031-0/+4
|
* PEP 293 implemention (from SF patch http://www.python.org/sf/432401)Walter Dörwald2002-09-021-0/+3
|
* Distutils-based script by Bill Fancher to download the Python documentationJack Jansen2002-08-281-0/+1
| | | | | | HTML tarball and use it to create a documentation tree readable and searchable with Apple Help Viewer. The documentation also shows up in Project Builder (if you add Python.framework to your project).
* Fix grammatically inept comment.Michael W. Hudson2002-08-221-2/+1
|
* 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 was already fixed in 2.3, but this adds some more test cases.
* SF patch 576101, by Oren Tirosh: alternative implementation ofGuido van Rossum2002-08-191-0/+17
| | | | | | | | interning. I modified Oren's patch significantly, but the basic idea and most of the implementation is unchanged. Interned strings created with PyString_InternInPlace() are now mortal, and you must keep a reference to the resulting string around; use the new function PyString_InternImmortal() to create immortal interned strings.
* News about sets. (There's no documentation; if someone wants toGuido van Rossum2002-08-191-0/+7
| | | | convert the doc strings to LaTeX, be my guest.)
* Fix spelling errors and note the addition of operator.pow()Raymond Hettinger2002-08-191-7/+9
|
* Merged the MacPython thanks list into the general acknowledgements.Jack Jansen2002-08-191-0/+23
| | | | There's really no point in a separate list of thank-you notes.
* Add Steve Purcell for unittest.pyRaymond Hettinger2002-08-181-0/+1
|
* Newly-relaxed limits on random.randrange(). Also added some info aboutTim Peters2002-08-161-5/+12
| | | | Karatsuba's better cache behavior with extremely large multiplicands.
* Mention warnings about defining None.Guido van Rossum2002-08-161-0/+3
|
* This is my patchMichael W. Hudson2002-08-151-0/+5
| | | | | | | | [ 587993 ] SET_LINENO killer Remove SET_LINENO. Tracing is now supported by inspecting co_lnotab. Many sundry changes to document and adapt to this change.
* Add notes about universal newlines.Guido van Rossum2002-08-151-2/+10
|
* Add news about Fred's change to Py_InitModule4().Guido van Rossum2002-08-141-0/+4
|
* Added Hisao Suzuki.Martin v. Löwis2002-08-141-0/+1
|
* Add news about FutureWarning and PEP 237 stage B0.Guido van Rossum2002-08-141-0/+23
| | | | Tim predicts that we might as well call this CassandraWarning.
* Added new function k_lopsided_mul(), which is much more efficient thanTim Peters2002-08-121-3/+3
| | | | | | | | k_mul() when inputs have vastly different sizes, and a little more efficient when they're close to a factor of 2 out of whack. I consider this done now, although I'll set up some more correctness tests to run overnight.
* New names.Guido van Rossum2002-08-121-0/+2
|
* k_mul() and long_mul(): I'm confident that the Karatsuba algorithm isTim Peters2002-08-121-3/+10
| | | | | | | | correct now, so added some final comments, did some cleanup, and enabled it for all long-int multiplies. The KARAT envar no longer matters, although I left some #if 0'ed code in there for my own use (temporary). k_mul() is still much slower than x_mul() if the inputs have very differenent sizes, and that still needs to be addressed.
* New news about __class__ assignment restrictions and speed-up ofGuido van Rossum2002-08-121-43/+51
| | | | | | | new-style object creation/deallocation. Moved all news about type/class unification and new-stype classes to a separate section at the top.
* Revert what looks like a typo from the last checkinNeal Norwitz2002-08-121-1/+1
|
* Cautious introduction of a patch that started fromTim Peters2002-08-122-3/+8
| | | | | | | | SF 560379: Karatsuba multiplication. Lots of things were changed from that. This needs a lot more testing, for correctness and speed, the latter especially when bit lengths are unbalanced. For now, the Karatsuba code gets invoked if and only if envar KARAT exists.
* Add C API PyUnicode_FromOrdinal() which exposes unichr() at C level.Marc-André Lemburg2002-08-111-0/+6
| | | | | | | u'%c' will now raise a ValueError in case the argument is an integer outside the valid range of Unicode code point ordinals. Closes SF bug #593581.
* Clarify that the interruptable popen fixes aren't used under Win9x.Mark Hammond2002-08-101-3/+4

|
* SF patch 588728 (Nathan Srebro).Guido van Rossum2002-08-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | | The __delete__ method wrapper for descriptors was not supported (I added a test, too.) 2.2 bugfix candidate.

* Repair fill-paragraph damage.Michael W. Hudson2002-07-301-8/+9

* add description of LLTRACE.Michael W. Hudson2002-07-301-6/+18
|
* New functions for extension writers on Windows:Thomas Heller2002-07-291-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErr(), PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErrWithFilename(). Similar to PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrWithFilename() and PyErr_SetFromWindowsErr(), but they allow to specify the exception type to raise. Available on Windows. See SF patch #576458.
