The maxsplit functionality in .splitlines() was replaced by the keepends
functionality which allows keeping the line end markers together
with the string.
Added support for '%r' % obj: this inserts repr(obj) rather
than str(obj).
* string_contains now calls PyUnicode_Contains() only when the other
operand is a Unicode string (not whenever it's not a string).
* New format style '%r' inserts repr(arg) instead of str(arg).
* '...%s...' % u"abc" now coerces to Unicode just like
string methods. Care is taken not to reevaluate already formatted
arguments -- only the first Unicode object appearing in the
argument mapping is looked up twice. Added test cases for
this to test_unicode.py.
Attached you find an update of the Unicode implementation.
The patch is against the current CVS version. I would appreciate
if someone with CVS checkin permissions could check the changes
in.
The patch contains all bugs and patches sent this week and also
fixes a leak in the codecs code and a bug in the free list code
for Unicode objects (which only shows up when compiling Python
with Py_DEBUG; thanks to MarkH for spotting this one).
specifier came from an int expression instead of a constant in the
format, a negative width was truncated to zero instead of taken to
mean the same as that negative constant plugged into the format. E.g.
"(%*s)" % (-5, "foo") yielded "(foo)" while "(%-5s)" yields "(foo )".
Now both yield the latter -- like sprintf() in C.
arbitrary nested parens in a %(...)X style format.
#Also folded two lines and added more detail to the error message for
#unsupported format character.
from the interned table. There are references in hard-to-find static
variables all over the interpreter, and it's not worth trying to get
rid of all those; but "uninterning" isn't fair either and may cause
subtle failures later -- so we have to keep them in the interned
table.
Also get rid of no-longer-needed insert of None in interned dict.
