Replaced docstring with comments. Prevents subclass contamination.
Added the missing __cmp__() method and a test for __cmp__().
Used try/except style in preference to has_key() followed by a look-up.
Used iteritem() where possible to save creating a long key list and
to save redundant lookups.
Expanded .update() to look for the most helpful methods first and gradually
work down to a mininum expected interface.
Expanded documentation to be more clear on how to use the class.
recent version from Greg's CVS. I've changed the module docstring,
added a copyright notice, and renamed OptikError to OptParseError.
Still to do are documentation and unit tests.
If you have source files srcdir1/foo.c and srcdir2/foo.c, the
temporary .o for both files is written to build/temp.<platform>/foo.o.
This patch sets strip_dir to false for both calls to object_filename,
so now the object files are written to temp.<platform>/srcdir1/foo.o
and .../srcdir2/foo.o.
2.2 bugfix candidate
present and the caller has not specified a name/password pair. This change
makes it less likely that a lazy coder will expose sensitive information in a
word-readable script.
Also, make the test a bit smarter. If NNTPSERVER is defined in the environment
it will go talk to that server rather than look for a possibly nonexistent
local one named 'news'. Maybe the osession initializer ought to look at
NNTPSERVER rather than requiring a host arg? Must look around and see how
universal this convention is first.
The two long lines have been reflowed differently; hopefully someone on
BeOS can test them. Rev. 1.53 also converted string.atoi() to int(); I've
left that alone.
Added design notes in comments.
Used better variable names.
Eliminated the unsavory "pool[-k:]" which was an aspiring bug (for k==0).
Used if/else to show the two algorithms in parallel style.
Added one more test assertion.
When mwh added extended slicing, strings and unicode became mappings.
Thus, dict was set which prevented an error when doing:
newstr = 'format without a percent' % string_value
This fix raises an exception again when there are no formats
and % with a string value.
Armin Rigo's Draconian but effective fix for
SF bug 453523: list.sort crasher
slightly fiddled to catch more cases of list mutation. The dreaded
internal "immutable list type" is gone! OTOH, if you look at a list
*while* it's being sorted now, it will appear to be empty. Better
than a core dump.
figure out what the code was doing. The fixes were a combination of
closing open files before deletion, opening files in binary mode, and
plain skipping things that can't work on Windows (BaseTest.decompress
uses a process gimmick that doesn't exist on Windows, and, even if it
did, assumes a "bunzip2" executable is on PATH).
