Attached you find the latest update of the Unicode implementation.
The patch is against the current CVS version.
It includes the fix I posted yesterday for the core dump problem
in codecs.c (was introduced by my previous patch set -- sorry),
adds more tests for the codecs and two new parser markers
"es" and "es#".

Marc-Andre Lemburg:
Andy Robinson noted a core dump in the codecs.c file. This
was introduced by my latest patch which fixed a memory leak
in codecs.c. The bug causes all successful codec lookups to fail.
Fix probable bug; if errno == EINTR, floatsleep() doesn't break out of
a Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS/Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS block, but it
calls Py_BLOCK_THREADS anyway. The change moves Py_BLOCK_THREADS
to inside the if, so it's only executed when the function
actually returns unexpectedly.

Dropped any notion of allowing the user to specify the build directories:
these must come from the 'build' command. This means we no longer need
the misconceived 'set_peer_option()' method in Command and, more importantly,
sweeps away a bunch of potential future complexity to handle this tricky
case.
Greg Ward [Wed, 22 Mar 2000 00:20:46 +0000 (00:20 +0000)]
Renamed 'install_path' to 'extra_path'.
Fix 'Command.set_undefined_option()' to call 'ensure_ready()' rather
than 'finalize_options()' (which is only supposed to be called once,
which is the whole point of 'ensure_ready()').
Added comment to 'set_peer_option()' to remind myself that this method
cannot work and is fundamentally wrong-headed.

Yet another complete rewrite. Hopefully the *last* complete rewrite of
this command for a while; this implements roughly the plan cooked up by
Guido, Fred, and me. Seems to strike a nice balance between usability in
the common cases (just set one option), expandability for more types of
files to install in future, and customizability of installation
directories.
This revision isn't completely working: standard and alternate
installations work fine, but there are still some kinks to work out of
customized installations.

Took out what looks like old debugging code that probably should never

The patch is against the current CVS version. I would appreciate

The patch contains all bugs and patches sent this week and also

for Unicode objects (which only shows up when compiling Python
with Py_DEBUG; thanks to MarkH for spotting this one).

Oops! Don't call 'ensure_ready()' in 'Distribution.find_command_obj()' --
that broke parsing command-line options. Instead call it in
'Command.find_peer()', which is why I added it to 'find_command_obj()'
in the first place.

Tweaked all over:
* improve help strings
* warn if user supplies non-existing directories
* don't try to 'remove_tree()' non-existing directories
* try to remove the build_base after cleanup (but don't do or say
anything if it fails -- this is just in case we made it empty)

Changed to pay attention to the 'runtime_library_dirs' list (= 'rpath'
option in the 'build_ext' command):
* in ccompiler.py: 'gen_lib_options()' now takes 'runtime_library_dirs'
parameter
* in unixccompiler.py and msvccompiler.py: now pass
'self.runtime_library_dirs' to 'gen_lib_options()', and define
'runtime_library_dir_option()' (although in msvccompiler.py it
blows up with a DistutilsPlatformError right now!)

Third attempt at documenting an installation scheme; this one feels like
it could work--reasonably short and straightforward to document, but
flexible enough that it will be able to handle more than just modules
and extensions in the future.

Checking in the new, improve file.writelines() code.
This (1) avoids thread unsafety whereby another thread could zap the

Christian Tismer's "trashcan" patch:
Added wrapping macros to dictobject.c, listobject.c, tupleobject.c,
frameobject.c, traceback.c that safely prevends core dumps

The method is an "elevator destructor" that turns cascading
