| 7b06570 | Steve Purcell | 06 September 2001, 08:24:40 UTC | Changed TestResult to store only the text representation of an error. This patch is similar to that proposed by Jeremy. The proposed patch altered the interface of TestResult such that it would be passed the error information as a string rather than an exc_info() tuple. The implemented change leaves the interface untouched so that TestResults are still passed the tracebacks, but stor them in stringified form for later reporting. Notes: - Custom subclasses of TestResult written by users should be unaffected. - The existing 'unittestgui.py' will still work with this module after the change. - Support can later be added to pop into the debugger when an error occurs; this support should be added to a TestRunner rather than to TestCase itself, which this change will enable. (Jeremy, Fred, Guido: Thanks for all the feedback) | 06 September 2001, 08:24:40 UTC |

| b8c0230 | Tim Peters | 06 September 2001, 01:17:45 UTC | Dubious assumptions: 1. That seeking beyond the end of a file increases the size of a file. 2. That files so extended are magically filled with null bytes. I find no support for either in the C std, and #2 in particular turns out not to be true on Win32 (you apparently see whatever trash happened to be on disk). Left #1 intact, but changed the test to check only bytes it explicitly wrote. Also fiddled the "expected" vs "got" failure reports to consistently use repr (%r) -- they weren't readable otherwise. | 06 September 2001, 01:17:45 UTC |
| 6e13a56 | Tim Peters | 06 September 2001, 00:32:15 UTC | Enable large file support on Win32 systems. 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). | 06 September 2001, 00:32:15 UTC |

| b479dc5 | Guido van Rossum | 05 September 2001, 22:52:50 UTC | Add PyMethod_Function(), PyMethod_Self(), PyMethod_Class() back. While not even documented, they were clearly part of the C API, there's no great difficulty to support them, and it has the cool effect of not requiring any changes to ExtensionClass.c. | 05 September 2001, 22:52:50 UTC |
| a40c793 | Tim Peters | 05 September 2001, 22:36:56 UTC | Rework the way we try to check for libm overflow, given that C99 no longer 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. | 05 September 2001, 22:36:56 UTC |

| b855216 | Guido van Rossum | 05 September 2001, 14:58:11 UTC | Changes to automatically enable large file support on some systems. I believe this works on Linux (tested both on a system with large file support and one without it), and it may work on Solaris 2.7. The changes are twofold: (1) The configure script now boldly tries to set the two symbols that are recommended (for Solaris and Linux), and then tries a test script that does some simple seeking without writing. (2) The _portable_{fseek,ftell} functions are a little more systematic in how they try the different large file support options: first try fseeko/ftello, but only if off_t is large; then try fseek64/ftell64; then try hacking with fgetpos/fsetpos. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. The meaning of the HAVE_LARGEFILE_SUPPORT macro is not at all clear. I'll see if I can get it to work on Windows as well. | 05 September 2001, 14:58:11 UTC |

| 9fffa3e | Tim Peters | 04 September 2001, 05:14:19 UTC | Raise OverflowError when appropriate on long->float conversion. Most of 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. | 04 September 2001, 05:14:19 UTC |
| 1832de4 | Guido van Rossum | 04 September 2001, 03:51:09 UTC | PEP 238 documented -Qwarn as warning only for classic int or long division, and this makes sense. Add -Qwarnall to warn for all classic divisions, as required by the fixdiv.py tool. | 04 September 2001, 03:51:09 UTC |
| 61c345f | Guido van Rossum | 04 September 2001, 03:26:15 UTC | Rename the -D option to -Q, to avoid a Jython option name conflict. | 04 September 2001, 03:26:15 UTC |
| a1c1b0f | Tim Peters | 04 September 2001, 02:50:49 UTC | Introduce new private API function _PyLong_AsScaledDouble. Not used yet, but will be the foundation for Good Things: + Speed PyLong_AsDouble. + Give PyLong_AsDouble the ability to detect overflow. + Make true division of long/long nearly as accurate as possible (no spurious infinities or NaNs). + Return non-insane results from math.log and math.log10 when passing a long that can't be approximated by a double better than HUGE_VAL. | 04 September 2001, 02:50:49 UTC |
| 37a309d | Tim Peters | 04 September 2001, 01:20:04 UTC | builtin_dir(): Treat classic classes like types. Use PyDict_Keys instead of PyMapping_Keys because we know we have a real dict. Tolerate that objects may have an attr named "__dict__" that's not a dict (Py_None popped up during testing). test_descr.py, test_dir(): Test the new classic-class behavior; beef up the new-style class test similarly. test_pyclbr.py, checkModule(): dir(C) is no longer a synonym for C.__dict__.keys() when C is a classic class (looks like the same thing that burned distutils! -- should it be *made* a synoym again? Then it would be inconsistent with new-style class behavior.). | 04 September 2001, 01:20:04 UTC |
| a8aefe5 | Neil Schemenauer | 03 September 2001, 15:47:21 UTC | Don't use dir() to find instance attribute names. | 03 September 2001, 15:47:21 UTC |
| 49417e7 | Neil Schemenauer | 03 September 2001, 15:44:48 UTC | Fix the names of _PyObject_GC_TRACK and _PyObject_GC_UNTRACK when the GC is disabled. Obviously everyone enables the GC. :-) | 03 September 2001, 15:44:48 UTC |
| 0628a66 | Tim Peters | 03 September 2001, 08:44:02 UTC | Restore a line deleted by mistake. | 03 September 2001, 08:44:02 UTC |
| 32f453e | Tim Peters | 03 September 2001, 08:35:41 UTC | New restriction on pow(x, y, z): If z is not None, x and y must be of integer types, and y must be >= 0. See discussion at http://sf.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=457066&group_id=5470&atid=105470 | 03 September 2001, 08:35:41 UTC |
| 5d2b77c | Tim Peters | 03 September 2001, 05:47:38 UTC | Make dir() wordier (see the new docstring). The new behavior is a mixed 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. | 03 September 2001, 05:47:38 UTC |
| 95c99e5 | Tim Peters | 03 September 2001, 01:24:30 UTC | Made a doctest out of the examples in Guido's type/class tutorial. | 03 September 2001, 01:24:30 UTC |
| b7da090 | Tim Peters | 02 September 2001, 23:01:43 UTC | Clarify the Borland situation, based on email from Stephen. | 02 September 2001, 23:01:43 UTC |
| b95ec09 | Tim Peters | 02 September 2001, 18:35:54 UTC | Repair typo in comment. | 02 September 2001, 18:35:54 UTC |
| 13b54a9 | Jack Jansen | 02 September 2001, 14:48:32 UTC | Added the last few missing files, and put everything in the right packages. Tested, too:-) | 02 September 2001, 14:48:32 UTC |
| e7a9598 | Guido van Rossum | 02 September 2001, 14:11:30 UTC | Implement what the docstring said: multiple slashes per line are treated the same as single ones by default. Added -m option to issue a warning for this case instead. | 02 September 2001, 14:11:30 UTC |
