Add an optional argument to a decompression object's decompress()
method. The argument specifies the maximum length of the return
value. If the uncompressed data exceeds this length, the excess data
is stored as the unconsumed_tail attribute. (Not to be confused with
unused_data, which is a separate issue.)
Difference from SF patch: Default value for unconsumed_tail is ""
rather than None. It's simpler if the attribute is always a string.
object.c, PyObject_Str: Don't try to optimize anything except exact
string objects here; in particular, let str subclasses go thru tp_str,
same as non-str objects. This allows overrides of tp_str to take
effect.
stringobject.c:
+ string_print (str's tp_print): If the argument isn't an exact string
object, get one from PyObject_Str.
+ string_str (str's tp_str): Make a genuine-string copy of the object if
it's of a proper str subclass type. str() applied to a str subclass
that doesn't override __str__ ends up here.
test_descr.py: New str_of_str_subclass() test.
changing an application to collect profile data on one part of the
app while still making use of the profiled component, without relying
on side effects.
failobj, and when getting the subtype use 'plain' as the failobj.
text/plain is supposed to be the default if the message contains no
Content-Type: header.
Remove the log file after we are done with it. This should clean up after
the test even on Windows, since the file is now closed before we attempt
removal.
Simply commented it out, and then test_hotshot passes on Windows.
Leaving to Fred to fix "the right way" (it seems to be a feature of
unittest that all unittests try to unlink open files <wink>).
inherit_slots(): tp_as_buffer was getting inherited as if it were a
method pointer, rather than a pointer to a vector of method pointers. As
a result, inheriting from a type that implemented buffer methods was
ineffective, leaving all the tp_as_buffer slots NULL in the subclass.
corresponding to a dispatch slot (e.g. __getitem__ or __add__) is set,
calculate the proper dispatch slot and propagate the change to all
subclasses. Because of multiple inheritance, there's no easy way to
avoid always recursing down the tree of subclasses. Who cares?
(There's more to do, but this works. There's also a test for this now.)
Try to be systematic about dealing with socket and ssl exceptions in
FakeSocket.makefile(). The previous version of the code caught all
ssl errors and treated them as EOF, even though most of the errors
don't mean EOF.
An SSL error can mean on of three things:
1. The SSL/TLS connection was closed.
2. The operation should be retried.
3. An error occurred.
Also, if a socket error occurred and the error was EINTR, retry the
call. Otherwise, it was a legitimate error and the caller should
receive the exception.
headers. It does not parse the body of the message, instead simply
assigning it as a string to the container's payload. This can be much
faster when you're only interested in a message's header.
value, so the programmer will have to catch OverflowError. I'm not sure
what /F's perspective is on this. Perhaps it should be caught and mapped to
an xmlrpclib-specific exception. None of the other type-specific dump
methods seem to do any exception handling though.
call, or via setting an instance or class vrbl.
Rewrote the calibration docs.
Modern boxes are so friggin' fast, and a profiler event does so much work
anyway, that the cost of looking up an instance vrbl (the bias constant)
per profile event just isn't a big deal.
the problem that slots weren't inherited properly. override_slots()
no longer exists; in its place comes fixup_slot_dispatchers() which
does more and different work and is table-based. (Eventually I want
this table also to replace all the little tab_foo tables.)
Also add a wrapper for __delslice__; this required a change in
test_descrtut.py.
