* Mark Hammond <mhammond@skippinet.com.au>:Fred Drake2000-04-051-6/+2
| | | | This patch fixes the mmap module on Windows 9x.
* Patch from Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>:Fred Drake2000-04-041-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The bug is in mmap_read_line_method(), and its loop that searches for newlines. After the loop reaches EOF, eol is incremented and points after the end of the memory. This results in readline() method sometimes picking up and returning a byte after the end of the string. This is usually a bogus \0, but it could cause SIGSEGV if it's after the end of the page). The patch fixes the problem. Also, it uses memchr() for finding a character, which is in fact the "strnchr" the comment is asking for. memchr() is already used in Python sources, so there should be no portability problems.

* Hacked for Win32 by Mark Hammond.Guido van Rossum2000-03-311-542/+569
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reformatted for 8-space tabs and fitted into 80-char lines by GvR. Mark writes: * the Win32 version now accepts the same args as the Unix version. The win32 specific "tag" param is now optional. The end result is that the exact same test suite runs on Windows (definately a worthy goal!). * I changed the error object. All occurences of the error, except for 1, corresponds to an underlying OS error. This one was changed to a ValueError (a better error for that condition), and the module error object is now simply EnvironmentError. All win32 error routines now call the new Windows specific error handler.
* Added mmap module -- map a view of a file into memory on Win32 and Unix.Andrew M. Kuchling2000-03-301-0/+848
(Needs testing on Win32.)
