| 495894e | Guido van Rossum | 13 April 1999, 14:32:12 UTC | While I can't really test this thoroughly, Pat Knight and the Solaris man pages suggest that the proper thing to do is to add THR_NEW_LWP to the flags on thr_create(), and that there really isn't a downside, so I'll do that. | 13 April 1999, 14:32:12 UTC |
| 7cf9047 | Guido van Rossum | 13 April 1999, 14:25:52 UTC | Bunch of new names who helped iron out the last wrinkles of 1.5.2. | 13 April 1999, 14:25:52 UTC |

| 7a12299 | Guido van Rossum | 13 April 1999, 04:07:32 UTC | Put back __osf__ support for gethostbyname_r(); the real bug was that it was being used even without threads. This of course might be an all-platform problem so now we only use the _r variant when we are using threads. | 13 April 1999, 04:07:32 UTC |
| 761fcd0 | Guido van Rossum | 12 April 1999, 22:51:20 UTC | Fix accidentally reversed NULL test in load_mark(). Suggested by Tamito Kajiyama. (This caused a bug only on platforms where malloc(0) returns NULL.) | 12 April 1999, 22:51:20 UTC |

| 95bdd0b | Guido van Rossum | 12 April 1999, 14:34:16 UTC | Two different changes. 1. Jack Jansen reports that on the Mac, the time may be negative, and solves this by adding a write32u() function that writes an unsigned long. 2. On 64-bit platforms the CRC comparison fails; I've fixed this by casting both values to be compared to "unsigned long" i.e. modulo 0x100000000L. | 12 April 1999, 14:34:16 UTC |
| 65f685b | Jack Jansen | 12 April 1999, 09:25:23 UTC | Removed reference to the PSA (PSA membership no longer needed for CVS access). New location for MacCVS. | 12 April 1999, 09:25:23 UTC |

| 9b11279 | Guido van Rossum | 08 April 1999, 17:23:11 UTC | On Windows, we suddenly find, strftime() may return "" for an unsupported format string. (I guess this is because the logic for deciding whether to reallocate the buffer or not has been improved.) This caused the test code to crash on result[0]. Fix this by assuming an empty result also means the format is not supported. | 08 April 1999, 17:23:11 UTC |
| 60cc90e | Guido van Rossum | 08 April 1999, 15:18:12 UTC | This demo imported some private code from Matt. Make it cripple along. | 08 April 1999, 15:18:12 UTC |
| 6e9dadc | Guido van Rossum | 08 April 1999, 14:46:06 UTC | Delete an accidentally checked-in feature that actually broke more than was worth it: when deleting a canvas item, it would try to automatically delete the bindings for that item. Since there's nothing that says you can't reuse the tag and still have the bindings, this is not correct. Also, it broke at least one demo (Demo/tkinter/matt/rubber-band-box-demo-1.py). | 08 April 1999, 14:46:06 UTC |
| b738d26 | Guido van Rossum | 08 April 1999, 13:57:06 UTC | Win/CE thread support by Mark Hammond. | 08 April 1999, 13:57:06 UTC |
| b729a1d | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 20:23:17 UTC | Patch by Andrew Kuchling to unflush() (flush() for deflating). Without this, if inflate() returned Z_BUF_ERROR asking for more output space, we would report the error; now, we increase the buffer size and try again, just as for Z_OK. | 07 April 1999, 20:23:17 UTC |
| 052364b | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 19:00:58 UTC | Use binary mode for all gzip files we open. | 07 April 1999, 19:00:58 UTC |

| b6987b1 | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 18:32:51 UTC | Alas, get rid of the Win specific hack to ask the user to press Return before exiting when an error happened. This didn't work right when Python is invoked from a daemon. | 07 April 1999, 18:32:51 UTC |
| a99c5db | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 18:27:29 UTC | Version bump awaiting impending new release. (Not much has changed :-( ) | 07 April 1999, 18:27:29 UTC |
| 1e7b0ac | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 17:23:09 UTC | Removing an unused image of a snake. I don't know what its origins are but I think I've seen it once in a NeXT dictionary application -- not sure whether anyone owns copyright but I don't see why we should risk it. | 07 April 1999, 17:23:09 UTC |
| 0d8d3dd | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 16:25:54 UTC | lower, tkraise/lift hide Misc.lower, Misc.tkraise/lift, so the preferred name for them is tag_lower, tag_raise (similar to tag_bind, and similar to the Text widget); unfortunately can't delete the old ones yet (maybe in 1.6) | 07 April 1999, 16:25:54 UTC |
| 2571cc8 | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 16:07:23 UTC | Changes by Mark Hammond for Windows CE. Mostly of the form #ifdef DONT_HAVE_header_H ... #endif around #include <header.h>. | 07 April 1999, 16:07:23 UTC |
| 99fb7c7 | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 16:05:47 UTC | Remove unused variable from complex_from_string() code. | 07 April 1999, 16:05:47 UTC |
| bd341fa | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 16:00:20 UTC | Add the possibility of a gamma release (release candidate). Add '+' to string version number to indicate we're beyond b2 now. | 07 April 1999, 16:00:20 UTC |
| 7969f31 | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 15:56:51 UTC | Updated documentation by Per Cederqvist. I've added back the documentation sendmail() to reflect the changes by The Dragon (see smtplib.py checkin). | 07 April 1999, 15:56:51 UTC |
| 8c67e4e | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 15:49:41 UTC | Add extern decl for fsync() for SunOS 4.x. | 07 April 1999, 15:49:41 UTC |
| 296e143 | Guido van Rossum | 07 April 1999, 15:03:39 UTC | Changes by Per Cederquist and The Dragon. Per writes: """ The application where Signum Support uses smtplib needs to be able to report good error messages to the user when sending email fails. To help in diagnosing problems it is useful to be able to report the entire message sent by the server, not only the SMTP error code of the offending command. A lot of the functions in sendmail.py unfortunately discards the message, leaving only the code. The enclosed patch fixes that problem. The enclosed patch also introduces a base class for exceptions that include an SMTP error code and error message, and make the code and message available on separate attributes, so that surrounding code can deal with them in whatever way it sees fit. I've also added some documentation to the exception classes. The constructor will now raise an exception if it cannot connect to the SMTP server. The data() method will raise an SMTPDataError if it doesn't receive the expected 354 code in the middle of the exchange. According to section 5.2.10 of RFC 1123 a smtp client must accept "any text, including no text at all" after the error code. If the response of a HELO command contains no text self.helo_resp will be set to the empty string (""). The patch fixes the test in the sendmail() method so that helo_resp is tested against None; if it has the empty string as value the sendmail() method would invoke the helo() method again. The code no longer accepts a -1 reply from the ehlo() method in sendmail(). [Text about removing SMTPRecipientsRefused deleted --GvR] """ and also: """ smtplib.py appends an extra blank line to the outgoing mail if the `msg' argument to the sendmail method already contains a trailing newline. This patch should fix the problem. """ The Dragon writes: """ Mostly I just re-added the SMTPRecipientsRefused exception (the exeption object now has the appropriate info in it ) [Per had removed this in his patch --GvR] and tweaked the behavior of the sendmail method whence it throws the newly added SMTPHeloException (it was closing the connection, which it shouldn't. whatever catches the exception should do that. ) I pondered the change of the return values to tuples all around, and after some thinking I decided that regularizing the return values was too much of the Right Thing (tm) to not do. My one concern is that code expecting an integer & getting a tuple may fail silently. (i.e. if it's doing : x.somemethod() >= 400: expecting an integer, the expression will always be true if it gets a tuple instead. ) However, most smtplib code I've seen only really uses the sendmail() method, so this wouldn't bother it. Usually code I've seen that calls the other methods usually only calls helo() and ehlo() for doing ESMTP, a feature which was not in the smtplib included with 1.5.1, and thus I would think not much code uses it yet. """ | 07 April 1999, 15:03:39 UTC |
| 630a9a6 | Guido van Rossum | 06 April 1999, 19:38:18 UTC | Fix the tests now that splitdrive() no longer treats UNC paths special. (Some tests converted to splitunc() tests.) | 06 April 1999, 19:38:18 UTC |
| f3c695c | Guido van Rossum | 06 April 1999, 19:32:19 UTC | Withdraw the UNC support from splitdrive(). Instead, a new function splitunc() parses UNC paths. The contributor of the UNC parsing in splitdrive() doesn't like it, but I haven't heard a good reason to keep it, and it causes some problems. (I think there's a philosophical problem -- to me, the split*() functions are purely syntactical, and the fact that \\foo is not a valid path doesn't mean that it shouldn't be considered an absolute path.) Also (quite separately, but strangely related to the philosophical issue above) fix abspath() so that if win32api exists, it doesn't fail when the path doesn't actually exist -- if GetFullPathName() fails, fall back on the old strategy (join with getcwd() if neccessary, and then use normpath()). | 06 April 1999, 19:32:19 UTC |

| 0155370 | Fred Drake | 05 April 1999, 19:46:21 UTC | Added a few items to the "See also" sections at Guido's prompting. Made more references to other modules in the text hyperlinks for the HTML and PDF versions. | 05 April 1999, 19:46:21 UTC |
| 766e0cb | Fred Drake | 05 April 1999, 19:28:29 UTC | Added "doc" target to match the other document-prefix targets. | 05 April 1999, 19:28:29 UTC |

| 06ca948 | Greg Ward | 04 April 1999, 02:58:07 UTC | Added all the "external action" methods (to make handling the verbose and dry-run flags consistently painless): 'execute()', 'mkpath()', 'copy_file()', 'copy_tree()', 'make_file()', and stub for 'make_files()' (not sure yet if it's useful). | 04 April 1999, 02:58:07 UTC |
| e765a3b | Greg Ward | 04 April 1999, 02:54:20 UTC | Added 'dry_run' flag to most functions (to support the "shadow methods" that wrap them in the Command class). Fixed 'copy_file()' to use '_copy_file_contents()', not 'copyfile()' from shutil module -- no reference to shutil anymore. Added "not copying" announcement in 'copy_file()'. Wee comment fix. | 04 April 1999, 02:54:20 UTC |

| f123f84 | Guido van Rossum | 29 March 1999, 20:33:21 UTC | Patch by Per Cederqvist, who writes: """ - It needlessly used the makefile() method for each response that is read from the SMTP server. - If the remote SMTP server closes the connection unexpectedly the code raised an IndexError. It now raises an SMTPServerDisconnected exception instead. - The code now checks that all lines in a multiline response actually contains an error code.

| 5773160 | Guido van Rossum | 29 March 1999, 19:12:04 UTC | Chris Lawrence writes: """ The GNU folks, in their infinite wisdom, have decided not to implement altzone in libc6; this would not be horrible, except that timezone (which is implemented) includes the current DST setting (i.e. timezone for Central is 18000 in summer and 21600 in winter). So Python's timezone and altzone variables aren't set correctly during DST. Here's a patch relative to 1.5.2b2 that (a) makes timezone and altzone show the "right" thing on Linux (by using the tm_gmtoff stuff available in BSD, which is how the GLIBC manual claims things should be done) and (b) should cope with the southern hemisphere. In pursuit of (b), I also took the liberty of renaming the "summer" and "winter" variables to "july" and "jan". This patch should also make certain time calculations on Linux actually work right (like the tz-aware functions in the rfc822 module). (It's hard to find DST that's currently being used in the southern hemisphere; I tested using Africa/Windhoek.) """ | 29 March 1999, 19:12:04 UTC |
