| d925620 | Thomas Wouters | 13 July 2001, 15:10:55 UTC | Expand the blob on Solaris to mention passing '-Xc' to compile Python correctly. Note that 'faulty' should actually be spelled 'fawlty', but I don't want those bugreports assigned to me ;) | 13 July 2001, 15:10:55 UTC |
| 6736e9d | Fred Drake | 12 July 2001, 14:59:49 UTC | Add credit for a last-minute fix in the re documentation. | 12 July 2001, 14:59:49 UTC |
| 59fbb83 | Fred Drake | 12 July 2001, 14:15:03 UTC | Fix return value for m.group() for groups not in the part of the RE that matched; reported by Paul Moore. | 12 July 2001, 14:15:03 UTC |
| 6f2762a | Thomas Wouters | 12 July 2001, 13:38:18 UTC | Preliminary NEWS entry for 2.1.1c1 | 12 July 2001, 13:38:18 UTC |
| 3261912 | Thomas Wouters | 12 July 2001, 12:43:11 UTC | Net result of Tim's checkins 2.28 through 2.31: - SF but #417587: compiler warnings compiling 2.1. Repaired *some* of the SGI compiler warnings Sjoerd Mullender reported. - Minor fiddling related to SF patch 416251 2.1c1 mmapmodule: unused vrbl cleanup - Fix the .find() method for memory maps. 1) it didn't obey the "start" parameter (and when it does, we must validate the value) 2) the return value needs to be an absolute index, rather than relative to some arbitrary point in the file (checking CVS, it appears this method never worked; these changes bring it into line with typical .find() behavior) - Fix new compiler warnings. Also boost "start" from (C) int to long and return a (C) long: PyArg_ParseTuple and Py_BuildValue may not let us get at the size_t we really want, but C int is clearly too small for a 64-bit box, and both the start parameter and the return value should work for large mapped files even on 32-bit boxes. The code really needs to be rethought from scratch (not by me, though ...). | 12 July 2001, 12:43:11 UTC |
| d7fe69f | Thomas Wouters | 12 July 2001, 12:28:10 UTC | Backport Tim's checkin 1.9: SF bug 418615: regular expression bug in pipes.py. Obviously bad regexps, spotted by Jeffery Collins. | 12 July 2001, 12:28:10 UTC |
| 45892bf | Thomas Wouters | 12 July 2001, 12:26:42 UTC | Backport Tim's checkin 1.7: SF bug 418296: WinMain.c should use WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN. I believe Kevin Rodgers here! The old WINDOWS_LEAN_AND_MEAN has, AFAICT, always been wrong. | 12 July 2001, 12:26:42 UTC |
| cac2498 | Thomas Wouters | 11 July 2001, 22:27:39 UTC | Re-do the broken-nice() patch to break less platforms. Hopefully none :P Also note that it isn't just Linux nice() that is broken: at least FreeBSD and BSDI also have this problem. os.nice() should probably just be emulated using getpriority()/setpriority(), if they are available, but that isn't worth putting in 2.1.1. | 11 July 2001, 22:27:39 UTC |
| d11f5f3 | Fred Drake | 11 July 2001, 20:40:05 UTC | Move the section on concrete numeric objects before the section on concrete sequence objects, since their API is simpler. This is in response to a comment in SF bug #440037. (Does this really belong in the bugfix release? Yes: this is a readability bug, and those are important in the documentation.) | 11 July 2001, 20:40:05 UTC |
| 90e6518 | Fred Drake | 11 July 2001, 18:49:00 UTC | Added information about the timeout parameter to the poll() method for polling objects. This closes SF bug #439823. Fixed a minor markup bug. | 11 July 2001, 18:49:00 UTC |
| 44589dd | Thomas Wouters | 11 July 2001, 14:01:08 UTC | Patch #439995 (slightly modified from the uploaded version): Work around Linux's nonstandard nice() systemcall, which does not return the new priority. This closes SF bug #439990. | 11 July 2001, 14:01:08 UTC |
| 958106d | Thomas Wouters | 11 July 2001, 12:18:24 UTC | Backport of Guido's checkins of acconfig.h (1.50), configure.in (1.224) and readline.c (2.36), and re-generated config.h.in and configure: SF Patch #432457 by Jason Tishler: support for readline 4.2. This patch allows the readline module to build cleanly with GNU readline 4.2 without breaking the build for earlier GNU readline versions. The configure script checks for the presence of rl_completion_matches in libreadline. | 11 July 2001, 12:18:24 UTC |
| 800f677 | Thomas Wouters | 11 July 2001, 12:15:15 UTC | Backport of the socketserver test, including output file (which is still necessary in the 2.1 branch.) Guido's original checkin message: A test suite for SocketServer.py that exposes the various bugs just fixed. Regrettably, this must be run manually -- somehow the I/O redirection of the regression test breaks the test. When run under the regression test, this raises ImportError with a warning to that effect. | 11 July 2001, 12:15:15 UTC |
| 1a2d894 | cvs2svn | 11 July 2001, 12:15:15 UTC | This commit was manufactured by cvs2svn to create branch 'release21-maint'. | 11 July 2001, 12:15:15 UTC |
| 6dc482c | Thomas Wouters | 11 July 2001, 12:05:49 UTC | Backport of Guido's checkin 1.25: Fix various serious problems: - The ThreadingTCPServer class and its derived classes were completely broken because the main thread would close the request before the handler thread had time to look at it. This was introduced by Ping's close_request() patch. The fix moves the close_request() calls to after the handler has run to completion in the BaseServer class and the ForkingMixIn class; when using the ThreadingMixIn, closing the request is the handler's responsibility. - The ForkingUDPServer class has always been been broken because the socket was closed in the child before calling the handler. I fixed this by simply not calling server_close() in the child at all. - I cannot get the UnixDatagramServer class to work at all. The recvfrom() call doesn't return a meaningful client address. I added a comment to this effect. Maybe it works on other Unix versions. - The __all__ variable was missing ThreadingMixIn and ForkingMixIn. - Bumped __version__ to "0.4". - Added a note about the test suite (to be checked in shortly). | 11 July 2001, 12:05:49 UTC |
| d4a75dc | Thomas Wouters | 11 July 2001, 12:03:44 UTC | Backport of Tim's checkin 2.178: SF bug #438295: [Windows] __init__.py cause strange behavior Probable fix (the bug report doesn't have enough info to say for sure). find_init_module(): Insist on a case-sensitive match for __init__ files. Given __INIT__.PY instead, find_init_module() thought that was fine, but the later attempt to do find_module("__INIT__.PY") didn't and its caller silently suppressed the resulting ImportError. Now find_init_module() refuses to accept __INIT__.PY to begin with. | 11 July 2001, 12:03:44 UTC |
| e27a8b9 | Thomas Wouters | 11 July 2001, 11:38:20 UTC | Backport Tim's checkin 1.17: SF patch #440144: Tests and minor bugfix for uu module decode(): While writing tests for uu.py, Nick Mathewson discovered that the 'Truncated input file' exception could never get raised, because its "if not str:" test was actually testing the builtin function "str", not the local string vrbl "s" as intended. | 11 July 2001, 11:38:20 UTC |
| 49ba499 | Fred Drake | 10 July 2001, 16:20:59 UTC | Add another name. | 10 July 2001, 16:20:59 UTC |
| 93e543c | Fred Drake | 10 July 2001, 16:19:26 UTC | Corrected the refcount information for PyList_SET_ITEM(). | 10 July 2001, 16:19:26 UTC |
| 919b65e | Fred Drake | 10 July 2001, 16:11:09 UTC | Document PyObject_New(), PyObject_NewVar(), PyObject_Init(), PyObject_InitVar(), PyObject_Del(), PyObject_NEW(), PyObject_NEW_VAR(), and PyObject_DEL(). Add notes to PyMem_Malloc() and PyMem_New() about the memory buffers not being initialized. This fixes SF bug #439012. Added explicit return value information for PyList_SetItem(), PyDict_SetItem(), and PyDict_SetItemString(). Corrected return type for PyList_SET_ITEM(). Fixed index entries in the descriptions of PyLong_AsLong() and PyLong_AsUnignedLong(). This fixes the API manual portion of SF bug #440037. Note that the headers properly declare everything as 'extern "C"' for C++ users. Document _Py_NoneStruct. Added links to the Extending & Embedding manual for PyArg_ParseTuple() and PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords(). Added note that PyArg_Parse() should not be used in new code. Fix up a few style nits -- avoid "e.g." and "i.e." -- these make translation more difficult, as well as reading the English more difficult for non-native speakers. | 10 July 2001, 16:11:09 UTC |
| 4695681 | Fred Drake | 10 July 2001, 14:20:20 UTC | Added descriptions for some modules that previously did not have any information about them, based on comments from Jack Jansen. | 10 July 2001, 14:20:20 UTC |
| 42af3ce | Thomas Wouters | 09 July 2001, 14:34:16 UTC | Fix for SF bug #436525, reported by Greg Kochanski: The block/unblock thread macros are called 'Py_BLOCK_THREADS' and 'Py_UNBLOCK_THREADS', not 'Py_BEGIN_BLOCK_THREADS' and 'Py_BEGIN_UNBLOCK_THREADS'. | 09 July 2001, 14:34:16 UTC |
| 4c633be | Tim Peters | 06 July 2001, 17:48:47 UTC | SF bug #439104: Tuple richcompares has code-typo. Symptom: (1, 2, 3) <= (1, 2) returned 1. Also an isomorphic error was in the list richcompare code. | 06 July 2001, 17:48:47 UTC |

| f891be9 | Fred Drake | 06 July 2001, 17:18:05 UTC | Explain the exit code for the wait() method, including a reference to the os.W*() functions used to interpret the return value. This fixes SF bug #429361. | 06 July 2001, 17:18:05 UTC |
| 02be5cb | Fred Drake | 05 July 2001, 21:20:01 UTC | The fpectl module does not work on Windows, so remove Windows from the \platform statement. Also fix a minor style consistency nit in an example. | 05 July 2001, 21:20:01 UTC |
| f379622 | Fred Drake | 05 July 2001, 18:22:48 UTC | Allow underscores in tag names and quote characters in unquoted attribute values. The change for attribute values matches the way Mozilla and Navigator view the world, at least. This closes SF bug #436621. | 05 July 2001, 18:22:48 UTC |
| 3f6de5a | Fred Drake | 04 July 2001, 05:18:18 UTC | Only write out one blank line before the request data. This closes SF patch #419459. | 04 July 2001, 05:18:18 UTC |
| f0f49d9 | Fred Drake | 02 July 2001, 21:22:56 UTC | Marked the parameters to Stats.print_*() as optional. This closes SF bug #438032. | 02 July 2001, 21:22:56 UTC |
| 13928be | Fred Drake | 02 July 2001, 16:56:09 UTC | Avoid using os.path.normcase() on sys.path elements; doing so causes paths to be presented in an unfamiliar case on case-preserving filesystems. This closes SF patch #436173. | 02 July 2001, 16:56:09 UTC |

| b24ffe4 | Thomas Wouters | 27 June 2001, 14:26:58 UTC | Backport of Tim's checkin 1.35: SF bug 434186: 0x80000000/2 != 0x80000000>>1 i_divmod: New and simpler algorithm. Old one returned gibberish on most boxes when the numerator was -sys.maxint-1. Oddly enough, it worked in the release (not debug) build on Windows, because the compiler optimized away some tricky sign manipulations that were incorrect in this case.

| cde43be | Thomas Wouters | 27 June 2001, 14:07:50 UTC | Backport Tim's checkin 1.26 (patch probably by Michael Hudson, not Hundson): SF bug 431772: traceback.print_exc() causes traceback Patch from Michael Hundson. format_exception_only() blew up when trying to report a SyntaxError from a string input (line is None in this case, but it assumed a string). | 27 June 2001, 14:07:50 UTC |

| 26cff90 | Fred Drake | 11 June 2001, 15:22:23 UTC | Fixed parameter order for os.popen2(), os.popen3(), and os.popen(4). Added a reference to these functions and popen() from the "Process Management" section. Based on a suggestion from comp.lang.python. | 11 June 2001, 15:22:23 UTC |
| fea0784 | Thomas Wouters | 11 June 2001, 15:21:43 UTC | Protect the use of the VWERASE symbol by an #ifdef, it's apparently missing on (some versions of ?) AIX. | 11 June 2001, 15:21:43 UTC |
| a623ca8 | Fred Drake | 11 June 2001, 14:57:07 UTC | Merge in recent changes from development branch: add warning about being sure that code only runs once when using the module as both a module and a script. | 11 June 2001, 14:57:07 UTC |
| ceea6fe | Fred Drake | 06 June 2001, 16:10:38 UTC | Typo: "descrition" --> "description" Add reference to the documentation for the Python documentation markup. Fixed up a couple of descriptions. This closes SF bug #430627. | 06 June 2001, 16:10:38 UTC |
| a9ce10f | Fred Drake | 06 June 2001, 16:09:54 UTC | Add references to the documentation for the Python documentation markup. Suggested by the comments in SF bug #430627. | 06 June 2001, 16:09:54 UTC |
| 05f2920 | Fred Drake | 05 June 2001, 02:24:26 UTC | Update a "Programmer's note" about lambda forms and scoping to reflect the availability of nested scoping in Python 2.1.

| 35a37f1 | Skip Montanaro | 04 June 2001, 15:30:41 UTC | is -> if in rename description | 04 June 2001, 15:30:41 UTC |
| 9d26f81 | Fred Drake | 03 June 2001, 03:16:04 UTC | Explained more differences between PyList_SetItem() and PyList_SET_ITEM(). In particular, the affect on existing list content was not sufficiently explained. This closes SF bug #429554. | 03 June 2001, 03:16:04 UTC |

| ecf1b65 | Fred Drake | 29 May 2001, 18:53:11 UTC | Users of PySequence_GET_FAST() should get the length of the sequence using PySequence_Size(), not PyObject_Size(): the later considers the mapping methods as well as the sequence methods, which is not needed here. Either should be equally fast in this case, but PySequence_Size() offers a better conceptual match. | 29 May 2001, 18:53:11 UTC |
| f1760de | Fred Drake | 29 May 2001, 18:14:26 UTC | readlink() description: Added note that the return value may be either absolute or relative. remove(), rename() descriptions: Give more information about the cross- platform behavior of these functions, so single-platform developers can be aware of the potential issues when writing portable code.

| 0108b37 | Fred Drake | 29 May 2001, 15:39:24 UTC | The parameter to the listen() method is not optional, but was marked as optional in the documentation. This closes SF bug #427985. | 29 May 2001, 15:39:24 UTC |
| 477bd2d | Thomas Wouters | 29 May 2001, 08:05:01 UTC | _PyTuple_Resize: guard against PyTuple_New() returning NULL, using Tim's suggestion (modulo style). | 29 May 2001, 08:05:01 UTC |
| fbed5be | Thomas Wouters | 28 May 2001, 13:04:33 UTC | _PyTuple_Resize: take into account the empty tuple. There can be only one. Instead of raising a SystemError, just create a new tuple of the desired size. This fixes (at least) SF bug #420343. | 28 May 2001, 13:04:33 UTC |
