-- added pickling support (only works if sre is imported)
-- fixed wordsize problems in engine
(instead of casting literals down to the character size,
cast characters up to the literal size (same as the code
word size). this prevents false hits when you're matching
a unicode pattern against an 8-bit string. (unfortunately,
this broke another test, but I think the test should be
changed in this case; more on that on python-dev)
-- added sre.purge function
(unofficial, clears the cache)
This patch fixes possible overflows in the socket module for 64-bit
platforms (mainly Win64). The changes are:
- abstract the socket type to SOCKET_T (this is SOCKET on Windows, int
on Un*x), this is necessary because sizeof(SOCKET) > sizeof(int) on
Win64
- use INVALID_SOCKET on Win32/64 for an error return value for
accept()
- ensure no overflow of the socket variable for: (1) a PyObject return
value (use PyLong_FromLongLong if necessary); and (2) printf
formatting in repr().
Closes SourceForge patch #100516.
Tim posted a long comment to python-dev (subject: "Controversial patch
(cmath)"; date: 6/29/00). The conclusion is that this whole module
stinks and this patch isn't perfect, but it's better than the acosh
and asinh we had, so let's check it in.
group reset problem. in the meantime, I added some
optimizations:
- added "inline" directive to LOCAL
(this assumes that AC_C_INLINE does what it's
supposed to do). to compile SRE on a non-unix
platform that doesn't support inline, you have
to add a "#define inline" somewhere...
- added code to generate a SRE_OP_INFO primitive
- added code to do fast prefix search
(enabled by the USE_FAST_SEARCH define; default
is on, in this release)
This patch fixes a possible overflow in the Sleep system call on
Win32/64 in the time_sleep() function in the time module. For very
large values of the give time to sleep the number of milliseconds can
overflow and give unexpected sleep intervals. THis patch raises an
OverflowError if the value overflows.
Closes SourceForge patch #100514.
This patch fixes the posix module for large file support mainly on
Win64, although some general cleanup is done as well.
The changes are:
- abstract stat->STAT, fstat->FSTAT, and struct stat->STRUCT_STAT
This is because stat() etc. are not the correct functions to use on
Win64 (nor maybe on other platforms?, if not then it is now trivial to
select the appropriate one). On Win64 the appropriate system functions
are _stati64(), etc.
- add _pystat_fromstructstat(), it builds the return tuple for the
fstat system call. This functionality was being duplicated. As well
the construction of the tuple was modified to ensure no overflow of
the time_t elements (sizeof(time_t) > sizeof(long) on Win64).
- add overflow protection for the return values of posix_spawnv and
posix_spawnve
- use the proper 64-bit capable lseek() on Win64
- use intptr_t instead of long where appropriate from Win32/64 blocks
(sizeof(void*) > sizeof(long) on Win64)
This closes SourceForge patch #100513.
Mark Hammond provided (a long time ago) a better Win32 specific
time_clock implementation in timemodule.c. The library for this
implementation does not exist on Win64 (yet, at least). This patch
makes Win64 fall back on the system's clock() function for
time_clock().
This closes SourceForge patch #100512.
