Twisted Core 14.0.0 (2014-05-08)
|
||
|
|
================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Features
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.interfaces.IUDPTransport - and that interface's
|
||
|
|
implementations in Twisted - now supports enabling broadcasting.
|
||
|
|
(#454)
|
||
|
|
- trial's TestCase will now report a test method as an error if that
|
||
|
|
test method is a generator function, preventing an issue when a
|
||
|
|
user forgets to decorate a test method with defer.inlineCallbacks,
|
||
|
|
causing the test method to not run. (#3917)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.positioning, a new API for positioning systems such as GPS,
|
||
|
|
has been added. It comes with an implementation of NMEA, the most
|
||
|
|
common wire protocol for GPS devices. It will supersede
|
||
|
|
twisted.protoocols.gps. (#3926)
|
||
|
|
- The new interface twisted.internet.interfaces.IStreamClientEndpoint
|
||
|
|
StringParserWithReactor will supply the reactor to its
|
||
|
|
parseStreamClient method, passed along from
|
||
|
|
twisted.internet.endpoints.clientFromString. (#5069)
|
||
|
|
- IReactorUDP.listenUDP, IUDPTransport.write and
|
||
|
|
IUDPTransport.connect now accept ipv6 address literals. (#5086)
|
||
|
|
- A new API, twisted.internet.ssl.optionsForClientTLS, allows clients
|
||
|
|
to specify and verify the identity of the peer they're communicating
|
||
|
|
with. When used with the service_identity library from PyPI, this
|
||
|
|
provides support for service identity verification from RFC 6125, as
|
||
|
|
well as server name indication from RFC 6066. (#5190)
|
||
|
|
- Twisted's TLS support now provides a way to ask for user-configured
|
||
|
|
trust roots rather than having to manually configure such
|
||
|
|
certificate authority certificates yourself.
|
||
|
|
twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now accepts a new argument,
|
||
|
|
trustRoot, which combines verification flags and trust sources, as
|
||
|
|
well as a new function that provides a value for that argument,
|
||
|
|
twisted.internet.ssl.platformTrust, which allows using the trusted
|
||
|
|
platform certificate authorities from OpenSSL for certificate
|
||
|
|
verification. (#5446)
|
||
|
|
- Constants are now comparable/orderable based on the order in which
|
||
|
|
they are defined. (#6523)
|
||
|
|
- "setup.py install" and "pip install" now work on Python 3.3,
|
||
|
|
installing the subset of Twisted that has been ported to Python 3.
|
||
|
|
(#6539)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now supports ECDHE for
|
||
|
|
servers by default on pyOpenSSL 0.14 and later, if the underlying
|
||
|
|
versions of cryptography.io and OpenSSL support it. (#6586)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now allows the user to set
|
||
|
|
acceptable ciphers and uses secure ones by default. (#6663)
|
||
|
|
- The Deferred returned by
|
||
|
|
twisted.internet.defer.DeferredFilesystemLock.deferUntilLocked can
|
||
|
|
now be cancelled. (#6720)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now enables TLSv1.1 and
|
||
|
|
TLSv1.2 by default (in addition to TLSv1.0) if the underlying
|
||
|
|
version of OpenSSL supports these protocol versions. (#6772)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now supports Diffie-Hellman
|
||
|
|
key exchange. (#6799)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions now disables TLS
|
||
|
|
compression to avoid CRIME attacks and, for servers, uses server
|
||
|
|
preference to choose the cipher. (#6801)
|
||
|
|
- SSL server endpoint string descriptions now support the
|
||
|
|
specification of Diffie-Hellman key exchange parameter files.
|
||
|
|
(#6924)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.reflect.requireModule was added to handle
|
||
|
|
conditional imports of python modules and work around pyflakes
|
||
|
|
warnings of unused imports code. (#7014)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bugfixes
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- If a ProcessProtocol.processExited method raised an exception a
|
||
|
|
broken process handler would be left in the global process state
|
||
|
|
leading to errors later on. This has been fixed and now an error
|
||
|
|
will be logged instead. (#5151)
|
||
|
|
- Twisted now builds on Solaris. Note that lacking a Buildbot slave
|
||
|
|
(see http://buildbot.twistedmatrix.com/boxes-supported) Solaris is
|
||
|
|
not a supported Twisted platform. (#5728)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.utils is now correctly installed on Python 3.
|
||
|
|
(#6929)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.threadpool.ThreadPool no longer starts new workers
|
||
|
|
when its pool size is changed while the pool is not running.
|
||
|
|
(#7011)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Improved Documentation
|
||
|
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
- Twisted now uses the Sphinx documentation generator for its
|
||
|
|
narrative documentation, which means that the source format for
|
||
|
|
narrative documentation has been converted to ReStructuredText.
|
||
|
|
(#4500)
|
||
|
|
- The Sphinx documentation is now also configured to allow
|
||
|
|
intersphinx links to standard library documentation. (#4582)
|
||
|
|
- The docstring for twisted.internet.task.react now better documents
|
||
|
|
the main parameter (#6071)
|
||
|
|
- The writing standard now explicitly mandates the usage of
|
||
|
|
ungendered pronouns. (#6858)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Deprecations and Removals
|
||
|
|
-------------------------
|
||
|
|
- test_import.py was removed as it was redundant. (#2053)
|
||
|
|
- Support for versions of pyOpenSSL older than 0.10 has been removed.
|
||
|
|
Affected users should upgrade pyOpenSSL. (#5014)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.interfaces.IStreamClientEndpointStringParser is
|
||
|
|
now deprecated in favor of twisted.internet.interfaces.IStreamClien
|
||
|
|
tEndpointStringParserWithReactor. (#5069)
|
||
|
|
- unsignedID and setIDFunction, previously part of
|
||
|
|
twisted.python.util and deprecated since 13.0, have now been
|
||
|
|
removed. (#6707)
|
||
|
|
- FTPClient.changeDirectory was deprecated in 8.2 and is now removed.
|
||
|
|
(#6759)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.stdio.StandardIO.closeStdin, an alias for
|
||
|
|
loseWriteConnection only available on POSIX and deprecated since
|
||
|
|
2.1, has been removed. (#6785)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.reflect.getcurrent is now deprecated and must not be
|
||
|
|
used. twisted.python.reflect.isinst is now deprecated in favor of
|
||
|
|
the built-in isinstance. (#6859)

Features
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
certificates. (#2061)

|
|
process endpoint. (#4696)
|

instance and sets its protocol attribute. (#5016)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.endpoints.connectProtocol allows connecting to a

|
||
|
|
- twisted.trial.unittest.SynchronousTestCase.assertNoResult no longer
|
||
|
|
swallows the result, if the assertion succeeds. (#6291)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.constants.FlagConstant implements __iter__ so that
|
||
|
|
it can be iterated upon to find the flags that went into a flag

set, and implements __nonzero__ to test as false when empty.
|
||
|

|
Improved Documentation
|
||

|
||
|
|
(#5994)
|

|
|
- The SSL howto now covers twisted.internet.ssl.CertificateOptions
|
||
|
|
instead of the older context factories it replaces. (#6273)
|
||
|
|
- The Constants HOWTO documents iteration and truth testing of flags,
|
||
|
|
as well as previously undocumented boolean operations. (#6302)

|
||
|
|
Deprecations and Removals
|

|
|
-------------------------
|
||
|
|
- twisted.trial.runner.suiteVisit and PyUnitTestCase as well as

Twisted Core 13.0.0 (2013-03-19)
|
||
|
|
================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Features
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- The twisted.protocols.ftp.FTP server now treats "LIST -La", "LIST
|
||
|
|
-al", and all other combinations of ordering and case of the "-l"
|
||
|
|
and "-a" flags the same: by ignoring them rather than treating them
|
||
|
|
as a pathname. (#1333)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.log.FileLogObserver now uses `datetime.strftime` to
|
||
|
|
format timestamps, adding support for microseconds and timezone
|
||
|
|
offsets to the `timeFormat` string. (#3513)
|
||
|
|
- trial now deterministically runs tests in the order in which they
|
||
|
|
were specified on the command line, instead of quasi-randomly
|
||
|
|
according to dictionary key ordering. (#5520)
|
||
|
|
- Cooperator.running can be used to determine the current cooperator
|
||
|
|
status. (#5937)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.modules.PythonPath now implements `__contains__` to
|
||
|
|
allow checking, by name, whether a particular module exists within
|
||
|
|
it. (#6198)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.application.internet.TimerService.stopService now waits for
|
||
|
|
any currently running call to finish before firing its deferred.
|
||
|
|
(#6290)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bugfixes
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.ftp.FTP now recognizes all glob expressions
|
||
|
|
supported by fnmatch. (#4181)
|
||
|
|
- Constant values defined using twisted.python.constants can now be
|
||
|
|
set as attributes of other classes without triggering an unhandled
|
||
|
|
AttributeError from the constants implementation. (#5797)
|
||
|
|
- Fixed problem where twisted.names.client.Resolver was not closing
|
||
|
|
open file handles which can lead to an out of file descriptor error
|
||
|
|
on PyPy. (#6216)
|
||
|
|
- All reactors included in Twisted itself now gracefully handle a
|
||
|
|
rare case involving delayed calls scheduled very far in the future.
|
||
|
|
(#6259)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.trial.reporter.Reporter._trimFrames correctly removes
|
||
|
|
frames from twisted.internet.utils.runWithWarningsSuppressed again,
|
||
|
|
after being broke in #6009. (#6282)

|
Standard I/O. (#5729)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.trial.unittest now offers SynchronousTestCase, a test case
|
||
|
|
base class that provides usability improvements but not reactor-
|
||

|
||
|
|

Twisted Core 12.0.0 (2012-02-10)
|
||
|
|
================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Features
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- The interface argument to IReactorTCP.listenTCP may now be an IPv6
|
||
|
|
address literal, allowing the creation of IPv6 TCP servers. (#5084)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.constants.Names now provides a way to define
|
||
|
|
collections of named constants, similar to the "enum type" feature
|
||
|
|
of C or Java. (#5382)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.constants.Values now provides a way to define
|
||
|
|
collections of named constants with arbitrary values. (#5383)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bugfixes
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- Fixed an obscure case where connectionLost wasn't called on the
|
||
|
|
protocol when using half-close. (#3037)
|
||
|
|
- UDP ports handle socket errors better on Windows. (#3396)
|
||
|
|
- When idle, the gtk2 and glib2 reactors no longer wake up 10 times a
|
||
|
|
second. (#4376)
|
||
|
|
- Prevent a rare situation involving TLS transports, where a producer
|
||
|
|
may be erroneously left unpaused. (#5347)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.iocpreactor.iocpsupport now has fewer 64-bit
|
||
|
|
compile warnings. (#5373)
|
||
|
|
- The GTK2 reactor is now more responsive on Windows. (#5396)
|
||
|
|
- TLS transports now correctly handle producer registration after the
|
||
|
|
connection has been lost. (#5439)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.htb.Bucket now empties properly with a non-zero
|
||
|
|
drip rate. (#5448)
|
||
|
|
- IReactorSSL and ITCPTransport.startTLS now synchronously propagate
|
||
|
|
errors from the getContext method of context factories, instead of
|
||
|
|
being capturing them and logging them as unhandled. (#5449)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Improved Documentation
|
||
|
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
- The multicast documentation has been expanded. (#4262)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.defer.Deferred now documents more return values.
|
||
|
|
(#5399)

Twisted Core 11.1.0 (2011-11-15)
|
||
|
|
================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Features
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- TCP and TLS transports now support abortConnection() which, unlike
|
||
|
|
loseConnection(), always closes the connection immediately. (#78)
|
||
|
|
- Failures received over PB when tracebacks are disabled now display
|
||
|
|
the wrapped exception value when they are printed. (#581)
|
||
|
|
- twistd now has a --logger option, allowing the use of custom log
|
||
|
|
observers. (#638)
|
||
|
|
- The default reactor is now poll(2) on platforms that support it.
|
||
|
|
(#2234)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.defer.inlineCallbacks(f) now raises TypeError when
|
||
|
|
f returns something other than a generator or uses returnValue as a
|
||
|
|
non-generator. (#2501)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.usage.Options now supports performing Zsh tab-
|
||
|
|
completion on demand. Tab-completion for Twisted commands is
|
||
|
|
supported out-of-the-box on any recent zsh release. Third-party
|
||
|
|
commands may take advantage of zsh completion by copying the
|
||
|
|
provided stub file. (#3078)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.portforward now uses flow control between its
|
||
|
|
client and server connections to avoid having to buffer an
|
||
|
|
unbounded amount of data when one connection is slower than the
|
||
|
|
other. (#3350)
|
||
|
|
- On Windows, the select, IOCP, and Gtk2 reactors now implement
|
||
|
|
IReactorWin32Events (most notably adding support for serial ports
|
||
|
|
to these reactors). (#4862)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.failure.Failure no longer captures the state of
|
||
|
|
locals and globals of all stack frames by default, because it is
|
||
|
|
expensive to do and rarely used. You can pass captureVars=True to
|
||
|
|
Failure's constructor if you want to capture this data. (#5011)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.web.client now supports automatic content-decoding via
|
||
|
|
twisted.web.client.ContentDecoderAgent, gzip being supported for
|
||
|
|
now. (#5053)
|
||
|
|
- Protocols may now implement ILoggingContext to customize their
|
||
|
|
logging prefix. twisted.protocols.policies.ProtocolWrapper and the
|
||
|
|
endpoints wrapper now take advantage of this feature to ensure the
|
||
|
|
application protocol is still reflected in logs. (#5062)
|
||
|
|
- AMP's raw message-parsing performance was increased by
|
||
|
|
approximately 12%. (#5075)
|
||
|
|
- Twisted is now installable on PyPy, because some incompatible C
|
||
|
|
extensions are no longer built. (#5158)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.defer.gatherResults now accepts a consumeErrors
|
||
|
|
parameter, with the same meaning as the corresponding argument for
|
||
|
|
DeferredList. (#5159)
|
||
|
|
- Added RMD (remove directory) support to the FTP client. (#5259)
|
||
|
|
- Server factories may now implement ILoggingContext to customize the
|
||
|
|
name that is logged when the reactor uses one to start listening on
|
||
|
|
a port. (#5292)
|
||
|
|
- The implementations of ITransport.writeSequence will now raise
|
||
|
|
TypeError if passed unicode strings. (#3896)
|
||
|
|
- iocp reactor now operates correctly on 64 bit Python runtimes.
|
||
|
|
(#4669)
|
||
|
|
- twistd ftp now supports the cred plugin. (#4752)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.filepath.FilePath now has an API to retrieve the
|
||
|
|
permissions of the underlying file, and two methods to determine
|
||
|
|
whether it is a block device or a socket. (#4813)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.trial.unittest.TestCase is now compatible with Python 2.7's
|
||
|
|
assertDictEqual method. (#5291)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bugfixes
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- The IOCP reactor now does not try to erroneously pause non-
|
||
|
|
streaming producers. (#745)
|
||
|
|
- Unicode print statements no longer blow up when using Twisted's
|
||
|
|
logging system. (#1990)
|
||
|
|
- Process transports on Windows now support the `writeToChild` method
|
||
|
|
(but only for stdin). (#2838)
|
||
|
|
- Zsh tab-completion of Twisted commands no longer relies on
|
||
|
|
statically generated files, but instead generates results on-the-
|
||
|
|
fly - ensuring accurate tab-completion for the version of Twisted
|
||
|
|
actually in use. (#3078)
|
||
|
|
- LogPublishers don't use the global log publisher for reporting
|
||
|
|
broken observers anymore. (#3307)
|
||
|
|
- trial and twistd now add the current directory to sys.path even
|
||
|
|
when running as root or on Windows. mktap, tapconvert, and
|
||
|
|
pyhtmlizer no longer add the current directory to sys.path. (#3526)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.win32eventreactor now stops immediately if
|
||
|
|
reactor.stop() is called from an IWriteDescriptor.doWrite
|
||
|
|
implementation instead of delaying shutdown for an arbitrary period
|
||
|
|
of time. (#3824)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.log now handles RuntimeErrors more gracefully, and
|
||
|
|
always restores log observers after an exception is raised. (#4379)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.spread now supports updating new-style RemoteCache
|
||
|
|
instances. (#4447)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.spread.pb.CopiedFailure will no longer be thrown into a
|
||
|
|
generator as a (deprecated) string exception but as a
|
||
|
|
twisted.spread.pb.RemoteException. (#4520)
|
||
|
|
- trial now gracefully handles the presence of objects in sys.modules
|
||
|
|
which respond to attributes being set on them by modifying
|
||
|
|
sys.modules. (#4748)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.deprecate.deprecatedModuleAttribute no longer
|
||
|
|
spuriously warns twice when used to deprecate a module within a
|
||
|
|
package. This should make it easier to write unit tests for
|
||
|
|
deprecated modules. (#4806)
|
||
|
|
- When pyOpenSSL 0.10 or newer is available, SSL support now uses
|
||
|
|
Twisted for all I/O and only relies on OpenSSL for cryptography,
|
||
|
|
avoiding a number of tricky, potentially broken edge cases. (#4854)
|
||
|
|
- IStreamClientEndpointStringParser.parseStreamClient now correctly
|
||
|
|
describes how it will be called by clientFromString (#4956)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.defer.Deferreds are 10 times faster at handling
|
||
|
|
exceptions raised from callbacks, except when setDebugging(True)
|
||
|
|
has been called. (#5011)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.filepath.FilePath.copyTo now raises OSError(ENOENT)
|
||
|
|
if the source path being copied does not exist. (#5017)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.modules now supports iterating over namespace
|
||
|
|
packages without yielding duplicates. (#5030)
|
||
|
|
- reactor.spawnProcess now uses the resource module to guess the
|
||
|
|
maximum possible open file descriptor when /dev/fd exists but gives
|
||
|
|
incorrect results. (#5052)
|
||
|
|
- The memory BIO TLS/SSL implementation now supports producers
|
||
|
|
correctly. (#5063)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.spread.pb.Broker no longer creates an uncollectable
|
||
|
|
reference cycle when the logout callback holds a reference to the
|
||
|
|
client mind object. (#5079)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.tls, and SSL/TLS support in general, now do clean
|
||
|
|
TLS close alerts when disconnecting. (#5118)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.persisted.styles no longer uses the deprecated allYourBase
|
||
|
|
function (#5193)
|
||
|
|
- Stream client endpoints now start (doStart) and stop (doStop) the
|
||
|
|
factory passed to the connect method, instead of a different
|
||
|
|
implementation-detail factory. (#5278)
|
||
|
|
- SSL ports now consistently report themselves as SSL rather than TCP
|
||
|
|
when logging their close message. (#5292)
|
||
|
|
- Serial ports now deliver connectionLost to the protocol when
|
||
|
|
closed. (#3690)
|
||
|
|
- win32eventreactor now behaves better in certain rare cases in which
|
||
|
|
it previously would have failed to deliver connection lost
|
||
|
|
notification to a protocol. (#5233)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Improved Documentation
|
||
|
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
- Test driven development with Twisted and Trial is now documented in
|
||
|
|
a how-to. (#2443)
|
||
|
|
- A new howto-style document covering twisted.protocols.amp has been
|
||
|
|
added. (#3476)
|
||
|
|
- Added sample implementation of a Twisted push producer/consumer
|
||
|
|
system. (#3835)
|
||
|
|
- The "Deferred in Depth" tutorial now includes accurate output for
|
||
|
|
the deferred_ex2.py example. (#3941)
|
||
|
|
- The server howto now covers the Factory.buildProtocol method.
|
||
|
|
(#4761)
|
||
|
|
- The testing standard and the trial tutorial now recommend the
|
||
|
|
`assertEqual` form of assertions rather than the `assertEquals` to
|
||
|
|
coincide with the standard library unittest's preference. (#4989)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.filepath.FilePath's methods now have more complete
|
||
|
|
API documentation (docstrings). (#5027)
|
||
|
|
- The Clients howto now uses buildProtocol more explicitly, hopefully
|
||
|
|
making it easier to understand where Protocol instances come from.
|
||
|
|
(#5044)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Deprecations and Removals

Twisted Core 11.0.0 (2011-04-01)
|
||
|
|
================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Features
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- The reactor is not restartable, but it would previously fail to
|
||
|
|
complain. Now, when you restart an unrestartable reactor, you get
|
||
|
|
an exception. (#2066)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.plugin now only emits a short log message, rather than a
|
||
|
|
full traceback, if there is a problem writing out the dropin cache
|
||
|
|
file. (#2409)
|
||
|
|
- Added a 'replacement' parameter to the
|
||
|
|
'twisted.python.deprecate.deprecated' decorator. This allows
|
||
|
|
deprecations to unambiguously specify what they have been
|
||
|
|
deprecated in favor of. (#3047)
|
||
|
|
- Added access methods to FilePath for FilePath.statinfo's st_ino,
|
||
|
|
st_dev, st_nlink, st_uid, and st_gid fields. This is in
|
||
|
|
preparation for the deprecation of FilePath.statinfo. (#4712)
|
||
|
|
- IPv4Address and UNIXAddress now have a __hash__ method. (#4783)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.ftp.FTP.ftp_STOR now catches `FTPCmdError`s
|
||
|
|
raised by the file writer, and returns the error back to the
|
||
|
|
client. (#4909)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bugfixes
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- twistd will no longer fail if a non-root user passes --uid 'myuid'
|
||
|
|
as a command-line argument. Instead, it will emit an error message.
|
||
|
|
(#3172)
|
||
|
|
- IOCPReactor now sends immediate completions to the main loop
|
||
|
|
(#3233)
|
||
|
|
- trial can now load test methods from multiple classes, even if the
|
||
|
|
methods all happen to be inherited from the same base class.
|
||
|
|
(#3383)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.web.server will now produce a correct Allow header when a
|
||
|
|
particular render_FOO method is missing. (#3678)
|
||
|
|
- HEAD requests made to resources whose HEAD handling defaults to
|
||
|
|
calling render_GET now always receive a response with no body.
|
||
|
|
(#3684)
|
||
|
|
- trial now loads decorated test methods whether or not the decorator
|
||
|
|
preserves the original method name. (#3909)
|
||
|
|
- t.p.amp.AmpBox.serialize will now correctly consistently complain
|
||
|
|
when being fed Unicode. (#3931)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.wxreactor now supports stopping more reliably.
|
||
|
|
(#3948)
|
||
|
|
- reactor.spawnProcess on Windows can now handle ASCII-encodable
|
||
|
|
Unicode strings in the system environment (#3964)
|
||
|
|
- When C-extensions are not complied for twisted, on python2.4, skip
|
||
|
|
a test in twisted.internet.test.test_process that may hang due to a
|
||
|
|
SIGCHLD related problem. Running 'python setup.py build_ext
|
||
|
|
--inplace' will compile the extension and cause the test to both
|
||
|
|
run and pass. (#4331)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.logfile.LogFile now raises a descriptive exception
|
||

|
||
|
|
twisted.words.protocols.jabber.xmlstream.__all__. (#4856)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.process now detects the most appropriate mechanism
|
||
|
|
to use for detecting the open file descriptors on a system, getting
|
||
|
|
Twisted working on FreeBSD even when fdescfs is not mounted.
|
||
|
|
(#4881)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.words.services referenced nonexistent
|
||
|
|
twisted.words.protocols.irc.IRC_NOSUCHCHANNEL. This has been fixed.
|
||
|
|
Related code has also received test cases. (#4915)

|
|
|
||
|
|

Twisted Core 10.2.0 (2010-11-29)
|
||
|
|
================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Features
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.cfreactor has been significantly improved. It now
|
||
|
|
runs, and passes, the test suite. Many, many bugs in it have been
|
||
|
|
fixed, including several segfaults, as it now uses PyObjC and
|
||
|
|
longer requires C code in Twisted. (#1833)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.ftp.FTPRealm now accepts a parameter to override
|
||
|
|
"/home" as the container for user directories. The new
|
||
|
|
BaseFTPRealm class in the same module also allows easy
|
||
|
|
implementation of custom user directory schemes. (#2179)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.filepath.FilePath and twisted.python.zippath.ZipPath
|
||
|
|
now have a descendant method to simplify code which calls the child
|
||
|
|
method repeatedly. (#3169)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.failure._Frame objects now support fake f_locals
|
||
|
|
attribute. (#4045)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.endpoints now has 'serverFromString' and
|
||
|
|
'clientFromString' APIs for constructing endpoints from descriptive
|
||
|
|
strings. (#4473)
|
||
|
|
- The default trial reporter now combines reporting of tests with the
|
||
|
|
same result to shorten its summary output. (#4487)
|
||
|
|
- The new class twisted.protocols.ftp.SystemFTPRealm implements an
|
||
|
|
FTP realm which uses system accounts to select home directories.
|
||
|
|
(#4494)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.reactor.spawnProcess now wastes less time trying
|
||
|
|
to close non-existent file descriptors on POSIX platforms. (#4522)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.win32eventreactor now declares that it implements
|
||
|
|
a new twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorWin32Events interface.
|
||
|
|
(#4523)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.application.service.IProcess now documents its attributes
|
||
|
|
using zope.interface.Attribute. (#4534)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.application.app.ReactorSelectionMixin now saves the value
|
||
|
|
of the --reactor option in the "reactor" key of the options object.
|
||
|
|
(#4563)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.endpoints.serverFromString and clientFromString,
|
||
|
|
and therefore also twisted.application.strports.service, now
|
||
|
|
support plugins, so third parties may implement their own endpoint
|
||
|
|
types. (#4695)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bugfixes
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.defer.Deferred now handles chains iteratively
|
||
|
|
instead of recursively, preventing RuntimeError due to excessive
|
||
|
|
recursion when handling long Deferred chains. (#411)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.cfreactor now works with trial. (#2556)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.enterprise.adbapi.ConnectionPool.close may now be called
|
||
|
|
even if the connection pool has not yet been started. This will
|
||
|
|
prevent the pool from ever starting. (#2680)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.basic.NetstringReceiver raises
|
||
|
|
NetstringParseErrors for invalid netstrings now. It handles empty
|
||
|
|
netstrings ("0:,") correctly, and the performance for receiving
|
||
|
|
netstrings has been improved. (#4378)
|
||
|
|
- reactor.listenUDP now returns an object which declares that it
|
||
|
|
implements IListeningPort. (#4462)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.randbytes no longer uses PyCrypto as a secure random
|
||
|
|
number source (since it is not one). (#4468)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.main.installReactor now blocks installation of
|
||
|
|
another reactor when using python -O (#4476)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.deprecate.deprecatedModuleAttribute now emits only
|
||
|
|
one warning when used to deprecate a package attribute which is a
|
||
|
|
module. (#4492)
|
||
|
|
- The "brief" mode of twisted.python.failure.Failure.getTraceback now
|
||
|
|
handles exceptions raised by the underlying exception's __str__
|
||
|
|
method. (#4501)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.words.xish.domish now correctly parses XML with namespaces
|
||
|
|
which include whitespace. (#4503)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.names.authority.FileAuthority now generates correct
|
||
|
|
negative caching hints, marks its referral NS RRs as non-
|
||
|
|
authoritative, and correctly generates referrals for ALL_RECORDS
|
||
|
|
requests. (#4513)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.test.reactormixins.ReactorBuilder's attribute
|
||
|
|
`requiredInterface` (which should an interface) is now
|
||
|
|
`requiredInterfaces` (a list of interfaces) as originally described
|
||
|
|
per the documentation. (#4527)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.zippath.ZipPath.__repr__ now correctly formats paths
|
||
|
|
with ".." in them (by including it). (#4535)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.names.hosts.searchFileFor has been fixed against
|
||
|
|
refcounting dependency. (#4540)
|
||
|
|
- The POSIX process transports now declare that they implement
|
||
|
|
IProcessTransport. (#4585)
|
||
|
|
- Twisted can now be built with the LLVM clang compiler, with
|
||
|
|
'CC=clang python setup.py build'. C code that caused errors with
|
||
|
|
this compiler has been removed. (#4652)
|
||
|
|
- trial now puts coverage data in the path specified by --temp-
|
||
|
|
directory, even if that option comes after --coverage on the
|
||
|
|
command line. (#4657)
|
||
|
|
- The unregisterProducer method of connection-oriented transports
|
||
|
|
will now cause the connection to be closed if there was a prior
|
||
|
|
call to loseConnection. (#4719)
|
||
|
|
- Fixed an issue where the new StreamServerEndpointService didn't log
|
||
|
|
listen errors. (This was a bug not present in any previous
|
||
|
|
releases, as this class is new.) (#4731)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Improved Documentation
|
||
|
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
- The trial man page now documents the meaning of the final line of
|
||
|
|
output of the default reporter. (#1384)
|
||
|
|
- The API documentation for twisted.internet.defer.DeferredList now
|
||
|
|
goes into more depth about the effects each of the __init__ flags
|
||
|
|
that class accepts. (#3595)
|
||
|
|
- There is now narrative documentation for the endpoints APIs, in the
|
||
|
|
'endpoints' core howto, as well as modifications to the 'writing
|
||
|
|
clients' and 'writing servers' core howto documents to indicate
|
||
|
|
that endpoints are now the preferred style of listening and
|
||
|
|
connecting. (#4478)
|
||
|
|
- trial's man page now documents the --disablegc option in more
|
||
|
|
detail. (#4511)
|
||
|
|
- trial's coverage output format is now documented in the trial man
|
||
|
|
page. (#4512)
|
||
|
|
- Broken links and spelling errors in the finger tutorial are now
|
||
|
|
fixed. (#4516)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.threads.blockingCallFromThread's docstring is now
|
||
|
|
explicit about Deferred support. (#4517)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.zippath.ZipPath.child now documents its handling of
|
||
|
|
".." (which is not special, making it different from
|
||
|
|
FilePath.child). (#4535)
|
||
|
|
- The API docs for twisted.internet.defer.Deferred now cover several
|
||
|
|
more of its (less interesting) attributes. (#4538)
|
||
|
|
- LineReceiver, NetstringReceiver, and IntNStringReceiver from
|
||
|
|
twisted.protocols.basic now have improved API documentation for
|
||
|
|
read callbacks and write methods. (#4542)
|
||
|
|
- Tidied up the Twisted Conch documentation for easier conversion.
|
||
|
|
(#4566)
|
||
|
|
- Use correct Twisted version for when cancellation was introduced in
|
||
|
|
the Deferred docstring. (#4614)
|
||
|
|
- The logging howto is now more clear about how the standard library
|
||
|
|
logging module and twisted.python.log can be integrated. (#4642)
|
||
|
|
- The finger tutorial still had references to .tap files. This
|
||
|
|
reference has now been removed. The documentation clarifies
|
||
|
|
"finger.tap" is a module and not a filename. (#4679)
|
||
|
|
- The finger tutorial had a broken link to the
|
||
|
|
twisted.application.service.Service class, which is now fixed.
|
||
|
|
Additionally, a minor typo ('verison') was fixed. (#4681)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.policies.TimeoutMixin now has clearer API
|
||
|
|
documentation. (#4684)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

||
|
|
-------------------------

|
||
|
|
(deprecated since 2007) and
|
||

Twisted Core 10.1.0 (2010-06-27)
|
||
|
|
================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Features
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- Add linux inotify support, allowing monitoring of file system
|
||
|
|
events. (#972)
|
||
|
|
- Deferreds now support cancellation. (#990)
|
||
|
|
- Added new "endpoint" interfaces in twisted.internet.interfaces,
|
||
|
|
which abstractly describe stream transport endpoints which can be
|
||
|
|
listened on or connected to. Implementations for TCP and SSL
|
||
|
|
clients and servers are present in twisted.internet.endpoints.
|
||
|
|
Notably, client endpoints' connect() methods return cancellable
|
||
|
|
Deferreds, so code written to use them can bypass the awkward
|
||
|
|
"ClientFactory.clientConnectionFailed" and
|
||
|
|
"Connector.stopConnecting" methods, and handle errbacks from or
|
||
|
|
cancel the returned deferred, respectively. (#1442)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.amp.Integer's documentation now clarifies that
|
||
|
|
integers of arbitrary size are supported and that the wire format
|
||
|
|
is a base-10 representation. (#2650)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.amp now includes support for transferring
|
||
|
|
timestamps (amp.DateTime) and decimal values (amp.Decimal). (#2651)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocol.ftp.IWriteFile now has a close() method, which can
|
||
|
|
return a Deferred. Previously a STOR command would finish
|
||
|
|
immediately upon the receipt of the last byte of the uploaded file.
|
||
|
|
With close(), the backend can delay the finish until it has
|
||
|
|
performed some other slow action (like storing the data to a
|
||
|
|
virtual filesystem). (#3462)
|
||
|
|
- FilePath now calls os.stat() only when new status information is
|
||
|
|
required, rather than immediately when anything changes. For some
|
||
|
|
applications this may result in fewer stat() calls. Additionally,
|
||
|
|
FilePath has a new method, 'changed', which applications may use to
|
||
|
|
indicate that the FilePath may have been changed on disk and
|
||
|
|
therefore the next status information request must fetch a new
|
||
|
|
stat result. This is useful if external systems, such as C
|
||
|
|
libraries, may have changed files that Twisted applications are
|
||
|
|
referencing via a FilePath. (#4130)
|
||
|
|
- Documentation improvements are now summarized in the NEWS file.
|
||
|
|
(#4224)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.task.deferLater now returns a cancellable
|
||
|
|
Deferred. (#4318)
|
||
|
|
- The connect methods of twisted.internet.protocol.ClientCreator now
|
||
|
|
return cancellable Deferreds. (#4329)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.spread.pb now has documentation covering some of its
|
||
|
|
limitations. (#4402)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.spread.jelly now supports jellying and unjellying classes
|
||
|
|
defined with slots if they also implement __getstate__ and
|
||
|
|
__setstate__. (#4430)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.amp.ListOf arguments can now be specified as
|
||
|
|
optional. (#4474)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bugfixes
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- On POSIX platforms, reactors now support child processes in a way
|
||
|
|
which doesn't cause other syscalls to sometimes fail with EINTR (if
|
||
|
|
running on Python 2.6 or if Twisted's extension modules have been
|
||
|
|
built). (#733)
|
||
|
|
- Substrings are escaped before being passed to a regular expression
|
||
|
|
for searching to ensure that they don't get interpreted as part of
|
||
|
|
the expression. (#1893)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.stdio now supports stdout being redirected to a
|
||
|
|
normal file (except when using epollreactor). (#2259)
|
||
|
|
- (#2367)
|
||
|
|
- The tap2rpm script now works with modern versions of RPM. (#3292)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.modules.walkModules will now handle packages
|
||
|
|
explicitly precluded from importing by a None placed in
|
||
|
|
sys.modules. (#3419)
|
||
|
|
- ConnectedDatagramPort now uses stopListening when a connection
|
||
|
|
fails instead of the deprecated loseConnection. (#3425)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.filepath.FilePath.setContent is now safe for
|
||
|
|
multiple processes to use concurrently. (#3694)
|
||
|
|
- The mode argument to the methods of
|
||
|
|
twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorUNIX is no longer deprecated.
|
||
|
|
(#4078)
|
||
|
|
- Do not include blacklisted projects when generating NEWS. (#4190)
|
||
|
|
- When generating NEWS for a project that had no significant changes,
|
||
|
|
include a section for that project and say that there were no
|
||
|
|
interesting changes. (#4191)
|
||
|
|
- Redundant 'b' mode is no longer passed to calls to FilePath.open
|
||
|
|
and FilePath.open itself now corrects the mode when multiple 'b'
|
||
|
|
characters are present, ensuring only one instance of 'b' is
|
||
|
|
provided, as a workaround for http://bugs.python.org/issue7686.
|
||
|
|
(#4207)
|
||
|
|
- HTML tags inside <pre> tags in the code snippets are now escaped.
|
||
|
|
(#4336)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.amp.CommandLocator now allows subclasses to
|
||
|
|
override responders inherited from base classes. (#4343)
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
and so forth. (#4346)
|
||
|
|
- The poll, epoll, glib2, and gtk2 reactors now all support half-
|
||
|
|
close in the twisted.internet.stdio.StandardIO transport. (#4352)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.application.internet no longer generates an extra and
|
||
|
|
invalid entry in its __all__ list for the nonexistent
|
||
|
|
MulticastClient. (#4373)
|
||
|
|
- Choosing a reactor documentation now says that only the select-
|
||
|
|
based reactor is a truly cross-platform reactor. (#4384)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.filepath.FilePath now no longer leaves files open,
|
||
|
|
to be closed by the garbage collector, when an exception is raised
|
||
|
|
in the implementation of setContent, getContent, or copyTo. (#4400)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.test.proto_helpers.StringTransport's getHost and getPeer
|
||
|
|
methods now return IPv4Address instances by default. (#4401)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.amp.BinaryBoxProtocol will no longer deliver an
|
||
|
|
empty string to a switched-to protocol's dataReceived method when
|
||
|
|
the BinaryBoxProtocol's buffer happened to be empty at the time of
|
||
|
|
the protocol switch. (#4405)
|
||
|
|
- IReactorUNIX.listenUNIX implementations now support abstract
|
||
|
|
namespace sockets on Linux. (#4421)
|
||
|
|
- Files opened with FilePath.create() (and therefore also files
|
||
|
|
opened via FilePath.open() on a path with alwaysCreate=True) will
|
||
|
|
now be opened in binary mode as advertised, so that they will
|
||
|
|
behave portably across platforms. (#4453)
|
||
|
|
- The subunit reporter now correctly reports import errors as errors,
|
||
|
|
rather than by crashing with an unrelated error. (#4496)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Improved Documentation
|
||
|
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
- The finger tutorial example which introduces services now avoids
|
||
|
|
double-starting the loop to re-read its users file. (#4420)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.defer.Deferred.callback's docstring now mentions
|
||
|
|
the implicit chaining feature. (#4439)
|

|
||
|
|
group message. (#4459)

Twisted Core 10.0.0 (2010-03-01)
|
||
|
|
================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Features
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- The twistd man page now has a SIGNALS section. (#689)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- reactor.spawnProcess now will not emit a PotentialZombieWarning
|
||
|
|
when called before reactor.run, and there will be no potential for
|
||
|
|
zombie processes in this case. (#2078)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- High-throughput applications based on Perspective Broker should now
|
||
|
|
run noticably faster thanks to the use of a more efficient decoding
|
||
|
|
function in Twisted Spread. (#2310)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Documentation for trac-post-commit-hook functionality in svn-dev
|
||
|
|
policy. (#3867)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.socks.SOCKSv4 now supports the SOCKSv4a protocol.
|
||
|
|
(#3886)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Trial can now output test results according to the subunit
|
||
|
|
protocol, as long as Subunit is installed (see
|
||
|
|
https://launchpad.net/subunit). (#4004)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.amp now provides a ListOf argument type which can
|
||
|
|
be composed with some other argument types to create a zero or more
|
||
|
|
element sequence of that type. (#4116)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- If returnValue is invoked outside of a function decorated with
|
||
|
|
@inlineCallbacks, but causes a function thusly decorated to exit, a
|
||
|
|
DeprecationWarning will be emitted explaining this potentially
|
||
|
|
confusing behavior. In a future release, this will cause an
|
||
|
|
exception. (#4157)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.logfile.BaseLogFile now has a reopen method allowing
|
||
|
|
you to use an external logrotate mechanism. (#4255)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Bugfixes
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- FTP.ftp_NLST now handles requests on invalid paths in a way
|
||
|
|
consistent with RFC 959. (#1342)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.util.initgroups now calls the low-level C initgroups
|
||
|
|
by default if available: the python version can create lots of I/O
|
||
|
|
with certain authentication setup to retrieve all the necessary
|
||
|
|
information. (#3226)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- startLogging now does nothing on subsequent invocations, thus
|
||
|
|
fixing a terrible infinite recursion bug that's only on edge case.
|
||
|
|
(#3289)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Stringify non-string data to NetstringReceiver.sendString before
|
||
|
|
calculating the length so that the calculated length is equal to
|
||
|
|
the actual length of the transported data. (#3299)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.win32.cmdLineQuote now correctly quotes empty
|
||
|
|
strings arguments (#3876)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Change the behavior of the Gtk2Reactor to register only one source
|
||
|
|
watch for each file descriptor, instead of one for reading and one
|
||
|
|
for writing. In particular, it fixes a bug with Glib under Windows
|
||
|
|
where we failed to notify when a client is connected. (#3925)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Twisted Trial no longer crashes if it can't remove an old
|
||
|
|
_trial_temp directory. (#4020)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The optional _c_urlarg extension now handles unquote("") correctly
|
||
|
|
on platforms where malloc(0) returns NULL, such as AIX. It also
|
||
|
|
compiles with less warnings. (#4142)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- On POSIX, child processes created with reactor.spawnProcess will no
|
||
|
|
longer automatically ignore the signals which the parent process
|
||
|
|
has set to be ignored. (#4199)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- All SOCKSv4a tests now use a dummy reactor with a deterministic
|
||
|
|
resolve method. (#4275)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Prevent extraneous server, date and content-type headers in proxy
|
||
|
|
responses. (#4277)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Deprecations and Removals
|
||
|
|
-------------------------
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.error.PotentialZombieWarning is now deprecated.
|
||
|
|
(#2078)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- twisted.test.time_helpers is now deprecated. (#3719)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The deprecated connectUDP method of IReactorUDP has now been
|
||
|
|
removed. (#4075)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- twisted.trial.unittest.TestCase now ignores the previously
|
||
|
|
deprecated setUpClass and tearDownClass methods. (#4175)

|
in particular threads was fixed (#1997)
|
||
|
|
- The passivePortRange attribute of FTPFactory is now honored (#3593)

|
||
|
|
file that was renamed since it was byte compiled (#3598)

||
|
|
- Some internal file descriptors are now marked as close-on-exec, so these will
|
||
|
|
no longer be leaked to child processes (#3576)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.zipstream now correctly extracts the first file in a directory
|
||
|
|
as a file, and not an empty directory (#3625)
|
||
|
|
- proxyForInterface now returns classes which correctly *implement* interfaces

|
|
- SIP Via header parameters should now be correctly generated (#2194)
|
||
|
|
- The Deferred returned by stopListening would sometimes previously never fire

|
method. Now the Deferred will fire with a failure (#3654)
|

||
|
|
- MemCache client protocol methods will now fail when the transport has been
|
||
|
|
disconnected (#3643)
|
||
|
|
- In the AMP method callRemoteString, the requiresAnswer parameter is now
|
||
|

|
||

=======================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Features

|
- Reactors are slowly but surely becoming more isolated, thus improving
|
||
|
|
testability (#3198)

|
||
|

2.5.0 (2006-12-29)
|
||
|
|
==================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Twisted 2.5.0 is a major feature release, with several interesting new
|
||
|
|
developments and a great number of bug fixes. Some of the highlights
|
||
|
|
follow.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* AMP, the Asynchronous Messaging Protocol, was introduced. AMP is
|
||
|
|
a protocol which provides request/response semantics over a
|
||
|
|
persistent connection in a very simple and extensible manner.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* An Epoll-based reactor was added, which can be used with twistd or
|
||
|
|
trial by passing "-r epoll" on the command line. This may improve
|
||
|
|
performance of certain high-traffic network applications.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The 'twistd' command can now accept sub-commands which name an
|
||
|
|
application to run. For example, 'twistd web --path .' will start a
|
||
|
|
web server serving files out of the current directory. This
|
||
|
|
functionality is meant to replace the old way of doing things with
|
||
|
|
'mktap' and 'twistd -f'.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Python 2.5 is now supported. Previous releases of Twisted were
|
||
|
|
broken by changes in the release of Python 2.5.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* 'inlineCallbacks' was added, which allows taking advantage of the
|
||
|
|
new 'yield' expression syntax in Python 2.5 to avoid writing
|
||
|
|
callbacks for Deferreds.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In addition to these changes, there are many other minor features and
|
||
|
|
a large number of bug fixes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Features
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- log.err can now take a second argument for specifying information
|
||
|
|
about an error (#1399)

|
||
|
|
was added (#1757)
|
||
|
|
- Trial docstring improvements were made (#1604, #2133)

||
|
|
- Trial's colorful reporter now works on win32 (#1646)
|
||
|
|
- Trial test modules may now dynamically construct TestSuites (#1638, #2165)

|
||
|
|
- Twisted now works with the latest (unreleased) zope.interface (#2160)
|
||
|
|
- An epoll-based reactor, epollreactor, was added. It is selectable
|
||
|
|
with the -r options to twistd and trial (#1953)
|
||
|
|
- twistd and trial now use the plugin system to find reactors which
|
||
|
|
can be selected (#719)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.internet.defer.inlineCallbacks was added. It takes
|
||
|
|
advantage of Python 2.5's generators to offer a way to deal with
|
||
|
|
Deferreds without callbacks (#2100)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fixes
|
||
|

||
|
|
- Traceback formatting in Trial was improved (#1454, #1610)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.filepath.FilePath.islink now actually returns True when
|
||
|
|
appropriate (#1773)
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
- twisted.pb Cacheables may now be new-style classes (#1324)
|
||
|
|
- FileDescriptor now deals with producers in a more
|
||
|
|
interface-compliant and robust manner (#2286, #811)
|

- "setup.py build" and other setup.py commands which don't actually
|
||
|
|
install the software now work (#1835)
|
||
|
|
- wxreactor has had various fixes (#1235, #1574, #1688)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
|
(#2130, #2137)
|
||

|
|
|
||
|
|
Features
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- twisted-dev-mode's F9 now uses trial's --testmodule feature, rather than
|
||
|
|
trying to guess what tests to run. This will break files using the "-x"
|

|
|
test-case-name hack (just use a comma separated list instead).
|
||
|
|
- API Documentation improvements.
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
- Better-defined error behavior in IReactorMulticast (#1578)

|
||
|
|
- Improved STDIO support on Windows. (#1553)
|
||
|
|
- LoopingCall supports Deferreds such that it will wait until a
|
||
|
|
Deferred has fired before rescheduling the next call (#1487)
|
||
|
|
- Added twisted.python.versions.Version, a structured representation
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
(#1663)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
-----
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Many trial fixes, as usual
|
||
|
|
- All API documentation is now correctly formatted as epytext (#1545)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.python.filepath.FilePath.__repr__ is safer.
|
||
|
|
- Fix trial's "until-failure" mode. (#1453)
|
||
|
|
- deferredGenerator now no longer causes handled exceptions (or
|
||
|
|
results) to propagate to the resulting Deferred (#1709).
|
||
|
|
- Misc: #1483, #1495, #1503, #1532, #1539, #1559, #1509, #1538,
|
||
|
|
#1571, #1331, #1561, #737, #1562, #1573, #1594, #1607, #1407, #1615,

|
|
Deprecations
|
||
|
|
------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Removal of already-deprecated trial APIs: the assertions module,
|
||
|
|
util.deferredResult, util.deferredError, util.fireWhenDoneFunc,
|
||
|
|
util.spinUntil, util.spinWhile, util.extract_tb,
|
||
|
|
util.format_exception, util.suppress_warnings, unittest.wait,
|
||
|
|
util.wait
|
||
|
|
- The backwards compatibility layer of twisted.python.components
|
||
|
|
(e.g., backwardsCompatImplements, fixClassImplements, etc) has been
|
||
|
|
disabled. The functions still exist, but do nothing as to not break
|
||
|
|
user code outright (#1511)
|
||
|
|
- Deprecate the usage of the 'default' argument as a keyword argument
|
||
|
|
in Interface.__call__. Passing a second positional argument to
|
||
|
|
specify the default return value of the adaptation is still
|
||
|
|
supported.

|
||
|

==================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Features
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
- threadedselectreactor, a reactor which potentially makes
|
||
|
|
integration with foreign event loops much simpler.
|
||
|
|
- major improvements to twisted.conch.insults, including many new widgets.
|
||
|
|
- adbapi ConnectionPools now have 'runWithConnection' which is
|
||
|
|
similar to runInteraction but gives you a connection object instead of
|
||
|
|
a transaction. [975]
|
||
|
|
- __file__ is now usable in tac files
|
||
|
|
- twisted.cred.pamauth now contains a PAM checker (moved from twisted.conch)
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.policies.LimitTotalConnectionsFactory now exists,
|
||
|
|
which does as the name suggests
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.ident now uses /proc/net/tcp on Linux [233]
|
||
|
|
- trial now recurses packages by default (a la the old -R parameter)
|
||
|
|
- (PB) Calling a remote method that doesn't exist now raises
|
||
|
|
NoSuchMethod instead of AttributeError.

|
|
|
||
|
|
Fixes
|
||
|
|
-----

|
||
|
|

|
- Failure.raiseException now at least always raises the correct Exception.
|
||
|
|
- minor improvements to serialport code
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

|
|
- Adapter persistence (IFoo(x, persist=True)). Just don't use it.
|
||
|
|
- log.debug. It was equivalent to log.msg(), just use that.
|
||
|
|
- twisted.protocols.telnet. twisted.conch.telnet replaces it.
|
||
|
|
- Setting a trial reporter using a flag to 'trial'. Instead of 'trial
|
||
|
|
--bwverbose', for example, use 'trial --reporter=bwverbose'.
|
||
|
|
- trial --coverage will become a flag in Twisted 2.2.
|
||
|
|
- passing a fully-qualified python name to --reporter is
|
||
|
|
deprecated. Pass only names of Reporter plugins.
|
||
|
|
- trial --psyco.
|
||
|
|
- trial -R (--recurse) is now the default, so passing it is deprecated.
|
||
|
|
- trial --reporter-args. Use the plugin system to do this sort of thing.
|
||
|
|
- trial.assertions.assertionMethod and trial.unittest.assertionMethod
|
||
|
|
are both deprecated. Use instance methods on TestCases instead.
|
||
|
|
- trial's deferredResult, deferredError, and wait functions. Return
|
||
|
|
Deferreds from your test methods instead of using them.
|
||
|
|
- Raising unittest.SkipTest with no arguments. Give a reason for your skip.
|
||
|
|
- The Failure returned from a gatherResults and DeferredList is now
|
||
|
|
of type FirstError instead of a tuple of (Exception, index). It
|
||
|
|
supports a firstError[idx] syntax but that is deprecated. Use
|
||
|
|
firstError.subFailure and firstError.index instead.
|
||
|
|
- whenThreaded now simply calls the passed function synchronously.
