Tim Peters d29abb9915 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.

modified from setup.py version "1.37" to support BeOS build.

Jeremy Hylton f626db77df News items for my recent checkins 2001-03-23 14:18:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 4e262a9631 A small change to the C API for weakly-referencable types: Such types 
must now initialize the extra field used by the weak-ref machinery to
NULL themselves, to avoid having to require PyObject_INIT() to check
if the type supports weak references and do it there.  This causes less
work to be done for all objects (the type object does not need to be
consulted to check for the Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_WEAKREFS bit).
 2001-03-22 18:26:47 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 8e9972c215 Added news items for the Distutils 2001-03-22 15:42:08 +00:00

Tim Peters 25a9ce371c Take a tour of hell's seedier neighborhoods to try to make winsound.Beep() 
do something non-useless on Win9X boxes.  WinME unknown to me.  Someone with
NT/2000 make sure it still works there!

Just mentioning that in the NEWS file.
 2001-02-18 08:28:33 +00:00
Neil Schemenauer 6e0e91af18 Remove outdated information. Merge now dead BeOS/README-readline. I'm not

Marc-André Lemburg 9f8cdf58a2 Patches for AIX. Checked by Benjamin Collar. 2001-02-09 09:59:06 +00:00
Tim Peters 909bc1cf63 SF bug #131225: sys.winver is still '2.0' in python 2.1a2. 
SF patch #103683: Alternative dll version resources.
Changes similar to the patch.  MarkH should review.
File version and Product version text strings now 2.1a2.
64-bit file and product version numbers are now
    PY_MAJOR_VERSION, PY_MINOR_VERSION, messy, PYTHON_API_VERSION
where
    messy = PY_MICRO_VERSION*1000 + PY_RELEASE_LEVEL*10 + PY_RELEASE_SERIAL
Updated company name to "Digital Creations 2".
Copyright now lists Guido; "C in a circle" symbol used instead of (C).
Comments added so this is less likely to get flubbed again, and
#if/#error guys added to trigger if the version number manipulations
above overflow.

Add note about _symtable.
Add note that 'from ... import *' restriction may go away -- and move
the whole entry closer to the top, because it might bite people.
 2001-02-02 20:06:28 +00:00
Tim Peters 9ea17ac595 Patch derived from Trent's 101162: a Python/C API testing framework.

wrong section and the section restriction was removed.
 2001-02-01 20:38:45 +00:00
Fred Drake fb9d712721 Added comments about the weak reference support. 2001-02-01 20:00:40 +00:00
Tim Peters 0de88fc4b1 Change random.seed() so that it can get at the full range of possible 
internal states.  Put the old .seed() (which could only get at about
the square root of the # of possibilities) under the new name .whseed(),
for bit-level compatibility with older versions.  This occurred to me
while reviewing effbot's book (he found himself stumbling over .seed()
more than once there ...).
 2001-02-01 04:59:18 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 30dbd1429a Document the two changes to the mailbox.py module: 
- All constructors grow an optional argument `factory' which is a
  callable used when new message instances are created by the next()
  methods.  Defaults to the rfc822.Message class.

- A new subclass of UnixMailbox is added, called PortableUnixMailbox.
  It's identical to UnixMailbox, but uses a more portable test for
  From_ delimiter lines.  With PortableUnixMailbox, any line that
  starts with "From " is considered a delimiter (this should really
  check for two newlines before the F, but it doesn't.

Moshe Zadka 6af0ce0501 Added news of function comparison and hashing by identity 2001-01-29 06:41:00 +00:00
Tim Peters 0149e84af2 SF bug #130306: statcache.py full of thread problems. 
Fixed the thread races.  Function forget_dir was also utterly Unix-specific.
 2001-01-28 05:07:00 +00:00
Tim Peters 547397c45b SF bug http://sourceforge.net/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=130242&group_id=5470 
SF patch http://sourceforge.net/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=103453&group_id=5470
PyMember_Set of T_CHAR always raises exception.
Unfortunately, this is a use of a C API function that Python itself never makes, so
there's no .py test I can check in to verify this stays fixed.  But the fault in the
code is obvious, and Dave Cole's patch just as obviously fixes it.
 2001-01-27 06:20:08 +00:00
Tim Peters 40ead76ed6 Added news about repr(string). 2001-01-27 05:35:26 +00:00
Tim Peters 85e2e4742d SF bug 130030: Claim of bad betavariate algorithm. 2001-01-26 06:49:56 +00:00
Tim Peters d52269bfd0 Fix bugs introduced by rewrite (in particular, time-based initialization 
got broken).  Also added new method .jumpahead(N).  This finally gives us
a semi-decent answer to how Python's RNGs can be used safely and efficiently
in multithreaded programs (although it requires the user to use the new
machinery!).
 2001-01-25 06:23:18 +00:00
Tim Peters d7b5e88e8e Reworked random.py so that it no longer depends on, and offers all the 
functionality of, whrandom.py.  Also closes all the "XXX" todos in
random.py.  New frequently-requested functions/methods getstate() and
setstate().  All exported functions are now bound methods of a hidden
instance.  Killed all unintended exports.  Updated the docs.
FRED:  The more I fiddle the docs, the less I understand the exact
intended use of the \var, \code, \method tags.  Please review critically.
GUIDO:  See email.  I updated NEWS as if whrandom were deprecated; I
think it should be.

Marc-André Lemburg ebb195b270 Updating NEWS to match the current state of affairs. 2001-01-20 10:34:52 +00:00
Thomas Wouters fe385251f4 Make the 'time' argument to the timemodule functions strftime, asctime, 
ctime, gmtime and localtime optional, defaulting to 'the current time' in
all cases. Adjust docs, add news item. Also convert all argument-handling to
METH_VARARGS. Closes SF patch #103265.
 2001-01-19 23:16:56 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling f5c9e86333 Add Jason Tishler to the ACKS file 2001-01-19 16:29:28 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a88479f0e3 - Add note about complex numbers. 
- Changed description of rich comparisons to emphasize that < and >
  (etc.) are each other's reflection.  Also use this word in the note
  about the demise of __rcmp__.
 2001-01-18 14:28:08 +00:00
Tim Peters 691e0e95de Variant of SF patch 103252: Startup optimize: read *.pyc as string, not with getc(). 2001-01-18 04:39:16 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg ad7c98e264 This patch adds a new builtin unistr() which behaves like str() 
except that it always returns Unicode objects.

A new C API PyObject_Unicode() is also provided.

This closes patch #101664.

Guido van Rossum f98eda01ab News item for rich comparisons. 
(I'm going to check in some more uses of rich comparisons, but the
basic feature should be in place now.)
 2001-01-17 15:54:45 +00:00

Guido van Rossum f61f166bca Added a whole slew of news items. Not striving for completeness -- 
I've skipped all bugfixes, Unicode, distutils changes.  But this
should be a start!
 2001-01-10 20:13:55 +00:00
Tim Peters 742bb6f9fd Clarification of new bisect module functions. 2001-01-05 08:05:32 +00:00

Patch #103067 with modifications as discussed in email.
 2001-01-04 20:30:56 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c4e1775081 Two new names. 2001-01-03 23:51:26 +00:00
Tim Peters 36cdad12dd Fred, THIS NEEDS DOCS! The function docstrings tell the tale. 
Christmas present to myself:  the bisect module didn't define what
happened if the new element was already in the list.  It so happens
that it inserted the new element "to the right" of all equal elements.
Since it wasn't defined, among other bad implications it was a mystery
how to use bisect to determine whether an element was already in the
list (I've seen code that *assumed* "to the right" without justification).
Added new methods bisect_left and insort_left that insert "to the left"
instead; made the old names bisect and insort aliases for the new names
bisect_right and insort_right; beefed up docstrings to explain what
these actually do; and added a std test for the bisect module.
 2000-12-29 02:06:45 +00:00
Barry Warsaw e0c182fb5f (python-font-lock-keywords): Add highlighting of `as' as a keyword, 
but only in "import foo as bar" statements (including optional
preceding `from' clause).
 2000-12-27 17:41:47 +00:00
