The module `__class__` attribute documentation added to 3.7 for PEP 562
(dynamic module attributes) also applies to earlier versions. This backports
that subset of the new docs to the 3.6 branch so that it will appear in the
main online documentation and in the final 3.6 binary release.
Patch by Cheryl Sabella.
On FreeBSD and Solaris, os.strerror() now always decode the byte
string from the current locale encoding, rather than using
ASCII/surrogateescape in some cases.
Changes:
* Add _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx() which has an
additional current_locale parameter.
* PyUnicode_DecodeLocale(), PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize() and
* PyUnicode_EncodeLocale() now always use the current locale
* encoding, instead of using Py_DecodeLocale()/Py_EncodeLocale().
* Document encoding in Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale()
documentations.
* Add USE_FORCE_ASCII define to not define
decode_ascii_surrogateescape() on Android.
* Add _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric() function: decode decimal_point and
thousands_sep fields of localeconv() from the LC_NUMERIC encoding,
rather than decoding from the LC_CTYPE encoding.
* Modify locale.localeconv() and "n" formatter of str.format() (for
int, float and complex to use _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric()
internally.
