af5910f025 The execfile() docs imply it acts on locals same as exec. But in truth
it acts more like assigning to keys in locals(), i.e. modifications to
function locals aren't reflected in the locals when execfile() returns.

8b13b3ede2 SF bug [#466173] unpack TypeError unclear
Replaced 3 instances of "iter() of non-sequence" with
"iteration over non-sequence".
Restored "unpack non-sequence" for stuff like "a, b = 1".

d38b1c74f3 SF [#466125] PyLong_AsLongLong works for any integer.
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.

0d68246f01 Fix two typos in the text about compile(), and add two caveats from
recent user feedback: you must end the input with \n and you must use
\n, not \r\n to represent line endings.

583061a10f Fix up whitespace in <args> elements; reduce sequences of consecutive
whitespace characters to a single space.
Small changes elsewhere, mostly to clean up the code a little.

d157237d51 For Python 2.2, do not use __getattr__(), only use computed properties.
This is probably a little bit faster, but mostly is just cleaner code.
The old-style support is still used for Python versions < 2.2 so this
source file can be shared with PyXML.

787fd8cdeb _dispatch(): Do no re-define the resolve_dotted_atttribute() function
every time this gets called; move it out as a global helper function.
    Simplify the call to the _dispatch() method of the registered instance.

599db7de63 The list.sort() docs require a function that returns -1, 0 or +1. That's
never been true, and in particular implies cmp() can't be used(!).  Get
closer to the truth.

84675acb49 The changes to ternary_op could cause a core dump. Fix this, and
rewrite the code a bit to avoid calling the same slot more than once.

bb29b9c952 Clarify the warning about the relative dates of Setup.dist and Setup;

it.  Add the hint "Usually, copying Setup.dist to Setup will work."

751c4c864c Add a few ``__dynamic__ = 0'' lines in classes that need to preserve
staticness when __dynamic__ = 1 becomes the default:

- Some classes which are used to test the difference between static
  and dynamic.

- Subclasses of complex: complex uses old-style numbers and the slot
  wrappers used by dynamic classes only support new-style numbers.
  (Ideally, the complex type should be fixed, but that looks like a
  labor-intensive job.)

4bb1e36eec It's a fact: for binary operators, *under certain circumstances*,
__rop__ now takes precendence over __op__.  Those circumstances are:

  - Both arguments are new-style classes
  - Both arguments are new-style numbers
  - Their implementation slots for tp_op differ
  - Their types differ
  - The right argument's type is a subtype of the left argument's type

Also did this for the ternary operator (pow) -- only the binary case
is dealt with properly though, since __rpow__ is not supported anyway.
2001-09-28 23:49:48 +00:00

9bea3abf0d Ouch. The wrapper for __rpow__ was the same as for __pow__, resulting
in bizarre outcomes.  Test forthcoming.

9390cc15da regrtest's -g option stopped working, during the changes to improve
error-reporting for the classic compare-expected-output tests.

e296cedef9 Be more rigorous about making pathnames absolute, to address SF bug
#424002.

Refactor init_path_from_argv0() and rename to copy_absolute(); add
absolutize() which does the same in-place.

Clean up whitespace (leading tabs -> spaces, delete trailing
spaces/tabs).

746fe0fae5 Clean up circular references in the Weak*Dictionary classes; this avoids
depending on the cycle detector code in the library implementation.
This is a *slightly* different patch than SF patch #417795, but takes
the same approach.  (This version avoids calling the __len__() method of
the dict in the remove() functions.)
This closes SF patch #417795.

6cef6d5d62 Changes to copy() and deepcopy() in copy.py to support __reduce__ as a
fallback for objects that are neither supported by our dispatch table
nor have a __copy__ or __deepcopy__ method.

Changes to _reduce() in copy_reg.py to support reducing objects that
don't have a __dict__ -- copy.copy(complex()) now invokes _reduce().

Add tests for copy.copy() and copy.deepcopy() to test_regrtest.py.

3c171d1b9f Convert to string methods.
For the real document element, make sure the prolog is migrated into
the document element so it isn't left stranded.

Make fixup_trailing_whitespace() whitespace do what was really intended.

Add the *desc environments used in the C API manual to the list of
things that can exist at the paragraph level so they don't get wrapped
in <para>...</para>.
