ff0f2670ff test_doctest fails since r59984.
Not sure if these are the correct values, but save_stdout has to be set before its usage...

cad3724352 Issue #1786 (by myself): pdb should use its own stdin/stdout around an

7b1e917e41 Restore description of sys.dont_write_bytecode.
The duplication is intentional -- this paragraph is in a section
describing additions to the sys module, and there's a later section
that mentions the switch.  I think most people scan the what's-new and
don't read it in detail, so a bit of duplication is OK.

d7b00334f3 Add rational.Rational as an implementation of numbers.Rational with infinite
precision. This has been discussed at http://bugs.python.org/issue1682. It's
useful primarily for teaching, but it also demonstrates how to implement a
member of the numeric tower, including fallbacks for mixed-mode arithmetic.

I expect to write a couple more patches in this area:
 * Rational.from_decimal()
 * Rational.trim/approximate() (maybe with different names)
 * Maybe remove the parentheses from Rational.__str__()
 * Maybe rename one of the Rational classes
 * Maybe make Rational('3/2') work.

c94e2b5c12 Now that I've learnt about structseq objects I felt like converting sys.float_info to a structseq. It's
readonly and help(sys.float_info) explains the attributes nicely.

9c2019632b Added new an better structseq representation. E.g. repr(time.gmtime(0)) now returns 'time.struct_time(tm_year=1970, tm_mon=1, tm_mday=1, tm_hour=0, tm_min=0, tm_sec=0, tm_wday=3, tm_yday=1, tm_isdst=0)' instead of '(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 3, 1, 0)'. The feature is part of #1816: sys.flags 2008-01-14 03:33:52 +00:00

7cdf5f5c31 ?Why did my tests not notice this before?
Slots inheritance is very different from OO inheritance.
This code lead to infinite recursion on classes derived from StructType.

e4c270c2a8 Re-apply patch #1700288 (first applied in r59931, rolled back in r59940)
now that ctypes uses a more supported method to create types:

Method cache optimization, by Armin Rigo, ported to 2.6 by Kevin Jacobs.
2008-01-14 00:29:41 +00:00
Amaury Forgeot d'Arc
08ccf202e6 As discussed in issue 1700288:
ctypes takes some liberties when creating python types: it modifies the types'
__dict__ directly, bypassing all the machinery of type objects which deal with
special methods.  And this broke recent optimisations of method lookup.
Now we try to modify the type with more "official" functions.

9e0f116fac Check in the patch proposed by Ben Hayden (benjhayden) for issue
#1550: help('modules') broken by several 3rd party libraries.

Tested with Python build: trunk:54235:59936M -- the reported error
occurs with Django installed (or with any __init__.py present on
the path that raises an exception), and such errors indeed go away
when this change is applied.
