  • Notes

    ...httplib now offers symbolic constants for the HTTP status codes. SF bug #1028306: Trying to compare a datetime.date to a datetime.datetime mistakenly compared only the year, month and day. Now it acts like a mixed-type comparison: False for ==, True for !=, and raises TypeError for other comparison operators. Because datetime is a subclass of date, comparing only the base class (date) members can still be done, if that's desired, by forcing using of the approprate date method; e.g., a_date.__...

    ...HTTP server to the user's browser. Although this was a fairly simple exercise, we did run into some problems stemming from our design of the CORE database meta-class. We found that altering classes and modules at runtime, as is done by the meta-class, violates guidelines imposed by Python's optional restricted execution environment. Since we felt that restricted execution was a necessary component in supporting a persistent web module, we opted to deploy CORE using CGIs rather than mod_python or...
