c115835457 Fix recent changes so that this section will format again. 2001-06-11 14:55:01 +00:00
Tim Peters
7b9542a3f7 Initial support for 'q' and 'Q' struct format codes: for now, only in 
native mode, and only when config #defines HAVE_LONG_LONG.  Standard mode
will eventually treat them as 8-byte ints across all platforms, but that
likely requires a new set of routines in longobject.c first (while
sizeof(long) >= 4 is guaranteed by C, there's nothing in C we can rely
on x-platform to hold 8 bytes of int, so we'll have to roll our own;
I'm thinking of a simple pair of conversion functions, Python long
to/from sized vector of unsigned bytes; that may be useful for GMP
conversions too; std q/Q would call them with size fixed at 8).

test_struct.py:  In addition to adding some native-mode 'q' and 'Q' tests,
got rid of unused code, and repaired a non-portable assumption about
native sizeof(short) (it isn't 2 on some Cray boxes).

libstruct.tex:  In addition to adding a bit of 'q'/'Q' docs (more needed
later), removed an erroneous footnote about 'I' behavior.

62f9d7c021 In the section on extending the profiler, add some additional discussion 
about setting up the dispatch table, and update the OldProfile and
HotProfile classes to the current implementations, showing the adjusted
construction for the dispatch table.

c19f39272e Some general cleanup of the threading module documentation, including 
fixing the reference to Thread.getDeamon() (should be isDaemon()).

This closes SF bug #429070.

dc9e7e42c8 readlink() description: Added note that the return value may be either 
absolute or relative.

remove(), rename() descriptions:  Give more information about the cross-
    platform behavior of these functions, so single-platform developers
    can be aware of the potential issues when writing portable code.

This closes SF patch #426598.

c80d4dd695 The parameter to the listen() method is not optional, but was marked as 
optional in the documentation.

56a71eee65 Add a version annotation for splitdrive(); old, but as long as I managed 
to end up with the information, it is better recorded than lost.

c6d8f8d2ac Add descriptions of {}.iteritems(), {}.iterkeys(), and {}.itervalues() 
in the table of mapping object operations.  Re-numbered the list of
notes to reflect the move of the "Added in version 2.2." note to the list
of notes instead of being inserted into the last column of the table.

98cfab6523 One more update related to the new get() and setdefault() methods on the 
Message object.
 2001-05-22 22:00:40 +00:00
Fred Drake
6b4593e338 Update to add get() and setdefault() as supported mapping operations, and 
add a list of the mapping methods which are not supported (per Barry's
comments).
 2001-05-22 15:12:46 +00:00
Fred Drake
706314909b Add some clarifications about the mapping interface presented by 
rfc822.Message objects, based on comments from Barry.

1400baa5d6 Add a "See also" section with useful links. More should be added giving 
pointers to information about the other mailbox formats; if anyone can
provide the information needed, please let me know!

e9719fe1a7 Fix bug in smtplib example: the prompt said to end the message with ^D, 
but doing so raised EOFError.  This makes it work as advertised and
converts to string methods where reasonable.

This closes SF bug #424776.

c0dac1a58c Beef up the unicode() description a bit, based on material from AMK's 
"What's New in Python ..." documents.

ba7e2c8a27 Add some text to make the dircmp object section more readable, and move 
some stuff around.

886f113ba9 --sigh--

break.

47852467f5 Markup adjustments to avoid getting junk in the index. 2001-05-11 15:46:45 +00:00
Fred Drake
96d7a70630 Replace "\begin{classdesc}{SomeClass}{\unspecified}" with 
"\begin{classdesc*}{SomeClass}" -- the rendering of \unspecified was
identical to \moreargs, so this helps clarify things just a little.

Fred Drake
e9735ac215 Remove all mentions of the strop module -- it has been pronounced Evil. 
(The string "strop" is found in the rexec documentation, but that should
not be changed until strop is actually removed or rexec no longer allows
it.)

Updates zipfile.ZipFile docs to mention the fact that you can create a
ZipFile instance from an arbitrary file-like object.

a7c9ac6544 There is no IMAP class in the imaplib module; the class is IMAP4. 
There is no imap module; refer to imaplib instead, since it exists.
Move the "See Also:" section in front of the sub-sections, for
consistency with other portions of the library reference.

This closes the library reference portion of SF bug #420216.

Documentation update to reflect changes to the termios module (noting
that the termios functions can take a file object as well as a file
descriptor).

This closes the documentation portion of SF patch #417081.

f42cc45f1b The general iteration support is part of 2.2, not 2.1 -- fixed the version 
annotations!

Also fixed a typo noted by Neil S.

the support for containers and iteration.

93656e76f9 Added section describing the iterator protocol. 2001-05-02 20:18:03 +00:00
Guido van Rossum
8b3d6ca3df At the suggestion of Peter Funk, document 'key in dict' and 'key not 
in dict' after has_key(), with a \versionadded{2.2} note.

82f93c693d Only document <file>.xreadlines() once; added version annotation.

Guido van Rossum
0dbb4fba4c Implement, test and document "key in dict" and "key not in dict". 
I know some people don't like this -- if it's really controversial,
I'll take it out again.  (If it's only Alex Martelli who doesn't like
it, that doesn't count as "real controversial" though. :-)

That's why this is a separate checkin from the iterators stuff I'm
about to check in next.

1aec3a16f3 Add versioning notes: many of the signatures changed to allow the time 
used to be omitted (meaning use the current time) as of Python 2.1.
Users who need cross-version portability need to know things like this.

bc524c4e9f Cut-&-paste-o noted by Wolfgang Teschner: decompressobj() returns 
*DE*compression objects, not compression objects!

895aa9da4c Suggestion from Keith Briggs: refer to RE objects consistently instead of 
introducing a new term ("regex") without defining it.

293f77af6f Add note about the version in which GetoptError was added -- this can 
bite people interested in 1.5.2 compatibility.
