  • Python 1.6

    ...linuxaudiodev - audio for Linux. mmap - treat a file as a memory buffer. (Windows and Unix.) sre - regular expressions (fast, supports unicode). Currently, this code is very rough. Eventually, the re module will be reimplemented using sre (without changes to the re API). filecmp - supersedes the old cmp.py and dircmp.py modules. tabnanny - check Python sources for tab-width dependance. (Moved from Tools/scripts/.) urllib2 - new and improved but incompatible version of urlli...

  • Python 2.0

    ...Linux and Win64, especially for the new Intel Itanium processor. Mick also added large file support for Linux64 and Win64. The C APIs to return an object's size have been update to consistently use the form PyXXX_Size, e.g. PySequence_Size and PyDict_Size. In previous versions, the abstract interfaces used PyXXX_Length and the concrete interfaces used PyXXX_Size. The old names, e.g. PyObject_Length, are still available for backwards compatibility at the API level, but are deprecated...

    ...Linux/UNIX open source" category. He also created the first implementation of Python for Microsoft's .NET environment, was a major contributor to ActiveState's place in the Python world, and has more recently acted as Python ambassador to the Mozilla community. Mark is also (jointly with Andy Robinson) the author of an O'Reilly title, Python Programming on Win-32.

  • Notes

    ...linuxaudiodev. Attempted a fix to make the OpenSSL support in the socket module work again with pre-0.9.5 versions of OpenSSL. Tests Added a test case for asynchat and asyncore. Removed coupling between tests where one test failing could break another. Tools Ping added an interactive help browser to pydoc, fixed some nits in the rest of the pydoc code, and added some features to his inspect module. An updated python-mode.el version 4.1 which integrates Ken Manheimer's pdbtrack.el. This make...

  • Computer Programming for Everybody

    ...Linux indicates that there is value to this claim. We believe that the next step, having millions of programmers, will cause a change of a different quality-the abundant availability of personalized software. The tools needed for this new way to look at programming will be different than the tools currently available to professional programmers. We intend to greatly improve both the training material and the development tools available. As an example, non-professional programmers sho...

  • Python 2.4.1 - Release Notes

    ...Microsoft's compiler. This wasn't visible before because a bugfix first included in 2.4.1c1 provoked it (bug #1110478: revert os.environ.update to do putenv again). Bug #1156259: Seeking in codecs.reader was broken, now fixed. Tests Fix the test for socket.getfqdn() in test_socket to also consider the host name returned by socket.gethostname() a valid return value for getfqdn(). Also clarified the wording of docs and docstring that this is the case. Extensions Modules os.access now supp...

  • Notes

    ...Microsoft _beginthread() function failed (due to "too many threads" -- this is on the order of thousands when it happens). In these cases, the Python exception thread.error: can't start new thread is raised now. SF bug 766669: Prevent a GPF on interpreter exit when sockets are in use. The interpreter now calls WSACleanup() from Py_Finalize() instead of from DLL teardown. Mac Bundlebuilder now inherits default values in the right way. It was previously possible for app bundle...
