number of tests, all because of the codecs/_multibytecodecs issue described here (it's not a Py3K issue, just something Py3K discovers): http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-April/064051.html Hye-Shik Chang promised to look for a fix, so no need to fix it here. The tests that are expected to break are: test_codecencodings_cn test_codecencodings_hk test_codecencodings_jp test_codecencodings_kr test_codecencodings_tw test_codecs test_multibytecodec This merge fixes an actual test failure (test_weakref) in this branch, though, so I believe merging is the right thing to do anyway.

|
|
The \module{py_compile} module provides a function to generate a
|
|
byte-code file from a source file, and another function used when the
|
|
module source file is invoked as a script.
|
|
|
|
Though not often needed, this function can be useful when installing
|
|
modules for shared use, especially if some of the users may not have
|
|
permission to write the byte-code cache files in the directory
|
|
containing the source code.
|
|
|
|
\begin{excdesc}{PyCompileError}
|
|
Exception raised when an error occurs while attempting to compile the file.
|
|
\end{excdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{funcdesc}{compile}{file\optional{, cfile\optional{, dfile\optional{, doraise}}}}
|
|
Compile a source file to byte-code and write out the byte-code cache
|
|
file. The source code is loaded from the file name \var{file}. The
|
|
byte-code is written to \var{cfile}, which defaults to \var{file}
|
|
\code{+} \code{'c'} (\code{'o'} if optimization is enabled in the
|
|
current interpreter). If \var{dfile} is specified, it is used as
|
|
the name of the source file in error messages instead of \var{file}.
|
|
If \var{doraise} is true, a \exception{PyCompileError} is raised when
|
|
an error is encountered while compiling \var{file}. If \var{doraise}
|
|
is false (the default), an error string is written to \code{sys.stderr},
|
|
but no exception is raised.
|
|
\end{funcdesc}
|
|
|
|
\begin{funcdesc}{main}{\optional{args}}
|
|
Compile several source files. The files named in \var{args} (or on
|
|
the command line, if \var{args} is not specified) are compiled and
|
|
the resulting bytecode is cached in the normal manner. This
|
|
function does not search a directory structure to locate source
|
|
files; it only compiles files named explicitly.
|
|
\end{funcdesc}
|
|
|
|
When this module is run as a script, the \function{main()} is used to
|
|
compile all the files named on the command line.
