PyOS_AfterFork() (was: CVS: python/dist/src/Doc/api api.tex,1.68,1.69)
by Greg Stein June 28, 2000

June 28, 2000

Woah. Never knew this was in Python. It is quite interesting, as there is a very similar concept within Apache. In that model, you register a cleanup function for the particular data that needs to be cleaned post-fork. After the fork occurs, the cleanups are called. In essence, Python would register PyOS_AfterFork. Of course, any schmoe can call fork() and avoid the cleanups, so it bungs up the whole scheme. In Apache, the "only" way to fork is to call an APR function, which guarantees the … [View More]

SourceForge patch notifications (was RE: [Python-Dev] ANN: Release schedule)

[Trent Mick] > ... > BTW I have answered a couple a questions on my patches. Does > the person to whom the patch is assigned get an update notification? Trent & I investigated this offline: he added a comment to one of his patches to which I am assigned. I did indeed get prompt email notification, although as everyone has noticed by now, there's no indication from SF about *why* I was getting notified; just: From: noreply(a)sourceforge.net [mailto:noreply@sourceforge.net] Sent: … [View More]

Named Unicode Characters
by M.-A. Lemburg June 28, 2000

June 28, 2000

I've just checked in the patches by Bill Tutt, which add support for \N{NAMED UNICODE CHARACTERS}. The new escape code is available per default in the standard unicode-escape codec. The (big) hash table needed to drive the mapping is loaded on demand to reduce memory overhead. The patch also includes a new tool called perfecthash which is used to generate the hash table (and function) from names to ordinals. I'm sure this can be of use in other areas too... but it needs some more work to … [View More]

Python 1.6 schedule
by Guido van Rossum June 28, 2000

June 28, 2000

I've updated the 1.6 page on python.org (http://www.python.org/1.6/) to include the latest schedule for 1.6. I've also included a link to Andrew's "what's new" article. Here's the new schedule in text form: July 1: beta 1; feature freeze. July 14: beta 2, in time for the O'Reilly Open Source Software Convention. August 1: release candidate. August 15: final release. I'm happy with how the patches are coming along today (/F even submitted the SRE patch...). We may actually … [View More]

back up & running
by Fred L. Drake, Jr. June 28, 2000

June 28, 2000

My mega-laptop got fixed faster than I'd expected, so I'm back up to doing useful work. My top priorities are handling patches and going back through my email to find all the documentation patches that have sat idle for too long. -Fred -- Fred L.

Checkin Utility
by M.-A. Lemburg June 28, 2000

June 28, 2000

I thought you might have some use for the attached utility. It's a simple script which helps with checking in patches which I've been using for a while now. It also hides the CVS options and parameters away as far as possible, so that CVS knowledge is not really needed to complete the task. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg ______________________________________________________________________ Business: http://www.lemburg.com/ Python Pages: http://www.lemburg.com/python/

Re: [Python-checkins] CVS: distutils/distutils util.py,1.36,1.37
by Greg Stein June 28, 2000

June 28, 2000

Would the "shlex" module be helpful here? It is in the standard library and is (well?) maintained by ESR. It could help reduce the code inside distutils.

Python 1.6 planning
by Jeremy Hylton June 28, 2000

June 28, 2000

We discussed plans for Python 1.6 at the all-hands PythonLabs staff meeting yesterday. (At this meeting, the PythonLabs staff closed ranks and agreed to say that Tim Peters exists.) I'd like to quickly summarize plans. The target release date for Python 1.6 beta 1 is early July. Any code that is going to be in the beta must be checked in before July 1. Tim Peters pushed us to take care of the patches backlog. Our plan is to close the patches list and move all patch management to … [View More]
