| | | | Decode and encode underscores for header style encoding. Fixes bug #463996.
* SF [#466125] PyLong_AsLongLong works for any integer.Tim Peters2001-09-302-0/+5
| | | | | | Generalize PyLong_AsLongLong to accept int arguments too. The real point is so that PyArg_ParseTuple's 'L' code does too. That code was undocumented (AFAICT), so documented it.

* Separate out the type/class-related news and reword some items.Guido van Rossum2001-09-251-39/+63
| | | | Add news items about comparisons, repr(), __class__ assignment.
* Make properties discoverable from Python:Tim Peters2001-09-241-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | - property() now takes 4 keyword arguments: fget, fset, fdel, doc. Note that the real purpose of the 'f' prefix is to make fdel fit in ('del' is a keyword, so can't used as a keyword argument name). - These map to visible readonly attributes 'fget', 'fset', 'fdel', and '__doc__' in the property object. - fget/fset/fdel weren't discoverable from Python before. - __doc__ is new, and allows to associate a docstring with a property.

* Generalize operator.indexOf (PySequence_Index) to work with anyTim Peters2001-09-081-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | iterable object. I'm not sure how that got overlooked before! Got rid of the internal _PySequence_IterContains, introduced a new internal _PySequence_IterSearch, and rewrote all the iteration-based "count of", "index of", and "is the object in it or not?" routines to just call the new function. I suppose it's slower this way, but the code duplication was getting depressing.

* Enable large file support on Win32 systems.Tim Peters2001-09-061-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | Curious: the MS docs say stati64 etc are supported even on Win95, but Win95 doesn't support a filesystem that allows partitions > 2 Gb. test_largefile: This was opening its test file in text mode. I have no idea how that worked under Win64, but it sure needs binary mode on Win98. BTW, on Win98 test_largefile runs quickly (under a second).
* Rework the way we try to check for libm overflow, given that C99 no longerTim Peters2001-09-051-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | requires that errno ever get set, and it looks like glibc is already playing that game. New rules: + Never use HUGE_VAL. Use the new Py_HUGE_VAL instead. + Never believe errno. If overflow is the only thing you're interested in, use the new Py_OVERFLOWED(x) macro. If you're interested in any libm errors, use the new Py_SET_ERANGE_IF_OVERFLOW(x) macro, which attempts to set errno the way C89 said it worked. Unfortunately, none of these are reliable, but they work on Windows and I *expect* under glibc too.

| | | | | | getting Infs, NaNs, or nonsense in 2.1 and before; in yesterday's CVS we were getting OverflowError; but these functions always make good sense for positive arguments, no matter how large).

* Raise OverflowError when appropriate on long->float conversion. Most ofTim Peters2001-09-041-0/+12
| | | | | | | the fiddling is simply due to that no caller of PyLong_AsDouble ever checked for failure (so that's fixing old bugs). PyLong_AsDouble is much faster for big inputs now too, but that's more of a happy consequence than a design goal.
* Rename the -D option to -Q, to avoid a Jython option name conflict.Guido van Rossum2001-09-041-5/+5

* Make dir() wordier (see the new docstring). The new behavior is a mixedTim Peters2001-09-031-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bag. It's clearly wrong for classic classes, at heart because a classic class doesn't have a __class__ attribute, and I'm unclear on whether that's feature or bug. I'll repair this once I find out (in the meantime, dir() applied to classic classes won't find the base classes, while dir() applied to a classic-class instance *will* find the base classes but not *their* base classes). Please give the new dir() a try and see whether you love it or hate it. The new dir([]) behavior is something I could come to love. Here's something to hate: >>> class C: ... pass ... >>> c = C() >>> dir(c) ['__doc__', '__module__'] >>> The idea that an instance has a __doc__ attribute is jarring (of course it's really c.__class__.__doc__ == C.__doc__; likewise for __module__). OTOH, the code already has too many special cases, and dir(x) doesn't have a compelling or clear purpose when x isn't a module.
