PEP 405：虚拟环境

Virtual environments help create separate Python setups while sharing a system-wide base install, for ease of maintenance. Virtual environments have their own set of private site packages (i.e. locally-installed libraries), and are optionally segregated from the system-wide site packages. Their concept and implementation are inspired by the popular virtualenv third-party package, but benefit from tighter integration with the interpreter core.

This PEP adds the venv module for programmatic access, and the pyvenv script for command-line access and administration. The Python interpreter checks for a pyvenv.cfg , file whose existence signals the base of a virtual environment’s directory tree.

PEP 3118: New memoryview implementation and buffer protocol documentation

The implementation of PEP 3118 has been significantly improved.

The new memoryview implementation comprehensively fixes all ownership and lifetime issues of dynamically allocated fields in the Py_buffer struct that led to multiple crash reports. Additionally, several functions that crashed or returned incorrect results for non-contiguous or multi-dimensional input have been fixed.

The memoryview object now has a PEP-3118 compliant getbufferproc() that checks the consumer’s request type. Many new features have been added, most of them work in full generality for non-contiguous arrays and arrays with suboffsets.

The documentation has been updated, clearly spelling out responsibilities for both exporters and consumers. Buffer request flags are grouped into basic and compound flags. The memory layout of non-contiguous and multi-dimensional NumPy-style arrays is explained.

特征

  • All native single character format specifiers in struct module syntax (optionally prefixed with ‘@’) are now supported.
  • With some restrictions, the cast() method allows changing of format and shape of C-contiguous arrays.
  • Multi-dimensional list representations are supported for any array type.
  • Multi-dimensional comparisons are supported for any array type.
  • One-dimensional memoryviews of hashable (read-only) types with formats B, b or c are now hashable. (Contributed by Antoine Pitrou in bpo-13411 .)
  • Arbitrary slicing of any 1-D arrays type is supported. For example, it is now possible to reverse a memoryview in O(1) by using a negative step.

API 变化

  • The maximum number of dimensions is officially limited to 64.
  • The representation of empty shape, strides and suboffsets is now an empty tuple instead of None .
  • Accessing a memoryview element with format ‘B’ (unsigned bytes) now returns an integer (in accordance with the struct module syntax). For returning a bytes object the view must be cast to ‘c’ first.
  • memoryview comparisons now use the logical structure of the operands and compare all array elements by value. All format strings in struct module syntax are supported. Views with unrecognised format strings are still permitted, but will always compare as unequal, regardless of view contents.
  • For further changes see 构建和 C API 变化 and Porting C code .

PEP 3118 - Revising the Buffer Protocol

PEP 393: Flexible String Representation

The Unicode string type is changed to support multiple internal representations, depending on the character with the largest Unicode ordinal (1, 2, or 4 bytes) in the represented string. This allows a space-efficient representation in common cases, but gives access to full UCS-4 on all systems. For compatibility with existing APIs, several representations may exist in parallel; over time, this compatibility should be phased out.

On the Python side, there should be no downside to this change.

On the C API side, PEP 393 is fully backward compatible. The legacy API should remain available at least five years. Applications using the legacy API will not fully benefit of the memory reduction, or - worse - may use a bit more memory, because Python may have to maintain two versions of each string (in the legacy format and in the new efficient storage).

Functionality

Changes introduced by PEP 393 are the following:

  • Python now always supports the full range of Unicode code points, including non-BMP ones (i.e. from U+0000 to U+10FFFF ). The distinction between narrow and wide builds no longer exists and Python now behaves like a wide build, even under Windows.
  • With the death of narrow builds, the problems specific to narrow builds have also been fixed, for example:
    • len() now always returns 1 for non-BMP characters, so len('\U0010FFFF') == 1 ;
    • surrogate pairs are not recombined in string literals, so '\uDBFF\uDFFF' != '\U0010FFFF' ;
    • indexing or slicing non-BMP characters returns the expected value, so '\U0010FFFF'[0] now returns '\U0010FFFF' and not '\uDBFF' ;
    • all other functions in the standard library now correctly handle non-BMP code points.
  • 值 sys.maxunicode is now always 1114111 ( 0x10FFFF in hexadecimal). The PyUnicode_GetMax() function still returns either 0xFFFF or 0x10FFFF for backward compatibility, and it should not be used with the new Unicode API (see bpo-13054 ).
  • ./configure flag --with-wide-unicode has been removed.

Performance and resource usage

The storage of Unicode strings now depends on the highest code point in the string:

  • pure ASCII and Latin1 strings ( U+0000-U+00FF ) use 1 byte per code point;
  • BMP strings ( U+0000-U+FFFF ) use 2 bytes per code point;
  • non-BMP strings ( U+10000-U+10FFFF ) use 4 bytes per code point.

The net effect is that for most applications, memory usage of string storage should decrease significantly - especially compared to former wide unicode builds - as, in many cases, strings will be pure ASCII even in international contexts (because many strings store non-human language data, such as XML fragments, HTTP headers, JSON-encoded data, etc.). We also hope that it will, for the same reasons, increase CPU cache efficiency on non-trivial applications. The memory usage of Python 3.3 is two to three times smaller than Python 3.2, and a little bit better than Python 2.7, on a Django benchmark (see the PEP for details).

PEP 397: Python Launcher for Windows

The Python 3.3 Windows installer now includes a py launcher application that can be used to launch Python applications in a version independent fashion.

This launcher is invoked implicitly when double-clicking *.py files. If only a single Python version is installed on the system, that version will be used to run the file. If multiple versions are installed, the most recent version is used by default, but this can be overridden by including a Unix-style “shebang line” in the Python script.

The launcher can also be used explicitly from the command line as the py application. Running py follows the same version selection rules as implicitly launching scripts, but a more specific version can be selected by passing appropriate arguments (such as -3 to request Python 3 when Python 2 is also installed, or -2.6 to specifically request an earlier Python version when a more recent version is installed).

In addition to the launcher, the Windows installer now includes an option to add the newly installed Python to the system PATH. (Contributed by Brian Curtin in bpo-3561 .)

PEP 3151: Reworking the OS and IO exception hierarchy

The hierarchy of exceptions raised by operating system errors is now both simplified and finer-grained.

You don’t have to worry anymore about choosing the appropriate exception type between OSError , IOError , EnvironmentError , WindowsError , mmap.error , socket.error or select.error . All these exception types are now only one: OSError . The other names are kept as aliases for compatibility reasons.

Also, it is now easier to catch a specific error condition. Instead of inspecting the errno attribute (or args[0] ) for a particular constant from the errno module, you can catch the adequate OSError subclass. The available subclasses are the following:

And the ConnectionError itself has finer-grained subclasses:

Thanks to the new exceptions, common usages of the errno can now be avoided. For example, the following code written for Python 3.2: 

from errno import ENOENT, EACCES, EPERM
try:
    with open("document.txt") as f:
        content = f.read()
except IOError as err:
    if err.errno == ENOENT:
        print("document.txt file is missing")
    elif err.errno in (EACCES, EPERM):
        print("You are not allowed to read document.txt")
    else:
        raise

can now be written without the errno import and without manual inspection of exception attributes: 

try:
    with open("document.txt") as f:
        content = f.read()
except FileNotFoundError:
    print("document.txt file is missing")
except PermissionError:
    print("You are not allowed to read document.txt")

PEP 380: Syntax for Delegating to a Subgenerator

PEP 380 adds the yield from expression, allowing a generator to delegate part of its operations to another generator. This allows a section of code containing yield to be factored out and placed in another generator. Additionally, the subgenerator is allowed to return with a value, and the value is made available to the delegating generator.

While designed primarily for use in delegating to a subgenerator, the yield from expression actually allows delegation to arbitrary subiterators.

For simple iterators, yield from iterable is essentially just a shortened form of for item in iterable: yield item : 

>>> def g(x):
...     yield from range(x, 0, -1)
...     yield from range(x)
...
>>> list(g(5))
[5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4]

However, unlike an ordinary loop, yield from allows subgenerators to receive sent and thrown values directly from the calling scope, and return a final value to the outer generator: 

>>> def accumulate():
...     tally = 0
...     while 1:
...         next = yield
...         if next is None:
...             return tally
...         tally += next
...
>>> def gather_tallies(tallies):
...     while 1:
...         tally = yield from accumulate()
...         tallies.append(tally)
...
>>> tallies = []
>>> acc = gather_tallies(tallies)
>>> next(acc)  # Ensure the accumulator is ready to accept values
>>> for i in range(4):
...     acc.send(i)
...
>>> acc.send(None)  # Finish the first tally
>>> for i in range(5):
...     acc.send(i)
...
>>> acc.send(None)  # Finish the second tally
>>> tallies
[6, 10]

The main principle driving this change is to allow even generators that are designed to be used with the send and throw methods to be split into multiple subgenerators as easily as a single large function can be split into multiple subfunctions.

PEP 409: Suppressing exception context

PEP 409 introduces new syntax that allows the display of the chained exception context to be disabled. This allows cleaner error messages in applications that convert between exception types: 

>>> class D:
...     def __init__(self, extra):
...         self._extra_attributes = extra
...     def __getattr__(self, attr):
...         try:
...             return self._extra_attributes[attr]
...         except KeyError:
...             raise AttributeError(attr) from None
...
>>> D({}).x
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<stdin>", line 8, in __getattr__
AttributeError: x

Without the from None suffix to suppress the cause, the original exception would be displayed by default: 

>>> class C:
...     def __init__(self, extra):
...         self._extra_attributes = extra
...     def __getattr__(self, attr):
...         try:
...             return self._extra_attributes[attr]
...         except KeyError:
...             raise AttributeError(attr)
...
>>> C({}).x
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 6, in __getattr__
KeyError: 'x'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<stdin>", line 8, in __getattr__
AttributeError: x

No debugging capability is lost, as the original exception context remains available if needed (for example, if an intervening library has incorrectly suppressed valuable underlying details): 

>>> try:
...     D({}).x
... except AttributeError as exc:
...     print(repr(exc.__context__))
...
KeyError('x',)

PEP 414: Explicit Unicode literals

To ease the transition from Python 2 for Unicode aware Python applications that make heavy use of Unicode literals, Python 3.3 once again supports the “ u ” prefix for string literals. This prefix has no semantic significance in Python 3, it is provided solely to reduce the number of purely mechanical changes in migrating to Python 3, making it easier for developers to focus on the more significant semantic changes (such as the stricter default separation of binary and text data).

PEP 3155: Qualified name for classes and functions

Functions and class objects have a new __qualname__ attribute representing the “path” from the module top-level to their definition. For global functions and classes, this is the same as __name__ . For other functions and classes, it provides better information about where they were actually defined, and how they might be accessible from the global scope.

Example with (non-bound) methods: 

>>> class C:
...     def meth(self):
...         pass
>>> C.meth.__name__
'meth'
>>> C.meth.__qualname__
'C.meth'

Example with nested classes: 

>>> class C:
...     class D:
...         def meth(self):
...             pass
...
>>> C.D.__name__
'D'
>>> C.D.__qualname__
'C.D'
>>> C.D.meth.__name__
'meth'
>>> C.D.meth.__qualname__
'C.D.meth'

Example with nested functions: 

>>> def outer():
...     def inner():
...         pass
...     return inner
...
>>> outer().__name__
'inner'
>>> outer().__qualname__
'outer.<locals>.inner'

The string representation of those objects is also changed to include the new, more precise information: 

>>> str(C.D)
"<class '__main__.C.D'>"
>>> str(C.D.meth)
'<function C.D.meth at 0x7f46b9fe31e0>'

PEP 412: Key-Sharing Dictionary

Dictionaries used for the storage of objects’ attributes are now able to share part of their internal storage between each other (namely, the part which stores the keys and their respective hashes). This reduces the memory consumption of programs creating many instances of non-builtin types.

PEP 362: Function Signature Object

A new function inspect.signature() makes introspection of python callables easy and straightforward. A broad range of callables is supported: python functions, decorated or not, classes, and functools.partial() objects. New classes inspect.Signature , inspect.Parameter and inspect.BoundArguments hold information about the call signatures, such as, annotations, default values, parameters kinds, and bound arguments, which considerably simplifies writing decorators and any code that validates or amends calling signatures or arguments.

PEP 421: Adding sys.implementation

A new attribute on the sys module exposes details specific to the implementation of the currently running interpreter. The initial set of attributes on sys.implementation are name , version , hexversion ，和 cache_tag .

The intention of sys.implementation is to consolidate into one namespace the implementation-specific data used by the standard library. This allows different Python implementations to share a single standard library code base much more easily. In its initial state, sys.implementation holds only a small portion of the implementation-specific data. Over time that ratio will shift in order to make the standard library more portable.

One example of improved standard library portability is cache_tag . As of Python 3.3, sys.implementation.cache_tag is used by importlib to support PEP 3147 compliance. Any Python implementation that uses importlib for its built-in import system may use cache_tag to control the caching behavior for modules.

SimpleNamespace

The implementation of sys.implementation also introduces a new type to Python: types.SimpleNamespace . In contrast to a mapping-based namespace, like dict , SimpleNamespace is attribute-based, like object . However, unlike object , SimpleNamespace instances are writable. This means that you can add, remove, and modify the namespace through normal attribute access.

Using importlib as the Implementation of Import

bpo-2377 - Replace __import__ w/ importlib.__import__ bpo-13959 - Re-implement parts of imp in pure Python bpo-14605 - Make import machinery explicit bpo-14646 - Require loaders set __loader__ and __package__

__import__() function is now powered by importlib.__import__() . This work leads to the completion of “phase 2” of PEP 302 . There are multiple benefits to this change. First, it has allowed for more of the machinery powering import to be exposed instead of being implicit and hidden within the C code. It also provides a single implementation for all Python VMs supporting Python 3.3 to use, helping to end any VM-specific deviations in import semantics. And finally it eases the maintenance of import, allowing for future growth to occur.

For the common user, there should be no visible change in semantics. For those whose code currently manipulates import or calls import programmatically, the code changes that might possibly be required are covered in the 移植 Python 代码 section of this document.

New APIs

One of the large benefits of this work is the exposure of what goes into making the import statement work. That means the various importers that were once implicit are now fully exposed as part of the importlib package.

The abstract base classes defined in importlib.abc have been expanded to properly delineate between meta path finders and 路径条目查找器 by introducing importlib.abc.MetaPathFinder and importlib.abc.PathEntryFinder , respectively. The old ABC of importlib.abc.Finder is now only provided for backwards-compatibility and does not enforce any method requirements.

In terms of finders, importlib.machinery.FileFinder exposes the mechanism used to search for source and bytecode files of a module. Previously this class was an implicit member of sys.path_hooks .

For loaders, the new abstract base class importlib.abc.FileLoader helps write a loader that uses the file system as the storage mechanism for a module’s code. The loader for source files ( importlib.machinery.SourceFileLoader ), sourceless bytecode files ( importlib.machinery.SourcelessFileLoader ), and extension modules ( importlib.machinery.ExtensionFileLoader ) are now available for direct use.

ImportError now has name and path attributes which are set when there is relevant data to provide. The message for failed imports will also provide the full name of the module now instead of just the tail end of the module’s name.

importlib.invalidate_caches() function will now call the method with the same name on all finders cached in sys.path_importer_cache to help clean up any stored state as necessary.

Visible Changes

For potential required changes to code, see the 移植 Python 代码 章节。

Beyond the expanse of what importlib now exposes, there are other visible changes to import. The biggest is that sys.meta_path and sys.path_hooks now store all of the meta path finders and path entry hooks used by import. Previously the finders were implicit and hidden within the C code of import instead of being directly exposed. This means that one can now easily remove or change the order of the various finders to fit one’s needs.

Another change is that all modules have a __loader__ attribute, storing the loader used to create the module. PEP 302 has been updated to make this attribute mandatory for loaders to implement, so in the future once 3rd-party loaders have been updated people will be able to rely on the existence of the attribute. Until such time, though, import is setting the module post-load.

Loaders are also now expected to set the __package__ attribute from PEP 366 . Once again, import itself is already setting this on all loaders from importlib and import itself is setting the attribute post-load.

None is now inserted into sys.path_importer_cache when no finder can be found on sys.path_hooks . Since imp.NullImporter is not directly exposed on sys.path_hooks it could no longer be relied upon to always be available to use as a value representing no finder found.

All other changes relate to semantic changes which should be taken into consideration when updating code for Python 3.3, and thus should be read about in the 移植 Python 代码 section of this document.

其他语言变化

Some smaller changes made to the core Python language are:

  • Added support for Unicode name aliases and named sequences. Both unicodedata.lookup() and '\N{...}' now resolve name aliases, and unicodedata.lookup() resolves named sequences too.

    (Contributed by Ezio Melotti in bpo-12753 .)

  • Unicode database updated to UCD version 6.1.0

  • Equality comparisons on range() objects now return a result reflecting the equality of the underlying sequences generated by those range objects. ( bpo-13201 )

  • count() , find() , rfind() , index() and rindex() methods of bytes and bytearray objects now accept an integer between 0 and 255 as their first argument.

    (Contributed by Petri Lehtinen in bpo-12170 .)

  • rjust() , ljust() ，和 center() methods of bytes and bytearray now accept a bytearray 为 fill argument. (Contributed by Petri Lehtinen in bpo-12380 .)

  • New methods have been added to list and bytearray : copy() and clear() ( bpo-10516 ). Consequently, MutableSequence now also defines a clear() method ( bpo-11388 ).

  • Raw bytes literals can now be written rb"..." 及 br"..." .

    (Contributed by Antoine Pitrou in bpo-13748 .)

  • dict.setdefault() now does only one lookup for the given key, making it atomic when used with built-in types.

    (Contributed by Filip Gruszczyński in bpo-13521 .)

  • The error messages produced when a function call does not match the function signature have been significantly improved.

    (Contributed by Benjamin Peterson.)

A Finer-Grained Import Lock

Previous versions of CPython have always relied on a global import lock. This led to unexpected annoyances, such as deadlocks when importing a module would trigger code execution in a different thread as a side-effect. Clumsy workarounds were sometimes employed, such as the PyImport_ImportModuleNoBlock() C API function.

In Python 3.3, importing a module takes a per-module lock. This correctly serializes importation of a given module from multiple threads (preventing the exposure of incompletely initialized modules), while eliminating the aforementioned annoyances.

(Contributed by Antoine Pitrou in bpo-9260 .)

内置函数和类型

  • open() gets a new opener parameter: the underlying file descriptor for the file object is then obtained by calling opener with ( file , flags ). It can be used to use custom flags like os.O_CLOEXEC for example. The 'x' mode was added: open for exclusive creation, failing if the file already exists.
  • print() : added the flush keyword argument. If the flush keyword argument is true, the stream is forcibly flushed.
  • hash() : hash randomization is enabled by default, see object.__hash__() and PYTHONHASHSEED .
  • str type gets a new casefold() method: return a casefolded copy of the string, casefolded strings may be used for caseless matching. For example, 'ß'.casefold() 返回 'ss' .
  • The sequence documentation has been substantially rewritten to better explain the binary/text sequence distinction and to provide specific documentation sections for the individual builtin sequence types ( bpo-4966 ).

新模块

faulthandler

This new debug module faulthandler contains functions to dump Python tracebacks explicitly, on a fault (a crash like a segmentation fault), after a timeout, or on a user signal. Call faulthandler.enable() to install fault handlers for the SIGSEGV , SIGFPE , SIGABRT , SIGBUS ，和 SIGILL signals. You can also enable them at startup by setting the PYTHONFAULTHANDLER environment variable or by using -X faulthandler command line option.

Example of a segmentation fault on Linux: 

$ python -q -X faulthandler
>>> import ctypes
>>> ctypes.string_at(0)
Fatal Python error: Segmentation fault
Current thread 0x00007fb899f39700:
  File "/home/python/cpython/Lib/ctypes/__init__.py", line 486 in string_at
  File "<stdin>", line 1 in <module>
Segmentation fault

ipaddress

The new ipaddress module provides tools for creating and manipulating objects representing IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, networks and interfaces (i.e. an IP address associated with a specific IP subnet).

(Contributed by Google and Peter Moody in PEP 3144 .)

lzma

The newly-added lzma module provides data compression and decompression using the LZMA algorithm, including support for the .xz and .lzma file formats.

(Contributed by Nadeem Vawda and Per Øyvind Karlsen in bpo-6715 .)

改善模块

abc

Improved support for abstract base classes containing descriptors composed with abstract methods. The recommended approach to declaring abstract descriptors is now to provide __isabstractmethod__ as a dynamically updated property. The built-in descriptors have been updated accordingly.

(Contributed by Darren Dale in bpo-11610 .)

abc.ABCMeta.register() now returns the registered subclass, which means it can now be used as a class decorator ( bpo-10868 ).

array

array module supports the long long type using q and Q type codes.

(Contributed by Oren Tirosh and Hirokazu Yamamoto in bpo-1172711 .)

base64

ASCII-only Unicode strings are now accepted by the decoding functions of the base64 modern interface. For example, base64.b64decode('YWJj') 返回 b'abc' . (Contributed by Catalin Iacob in bpo-13641 .)

binascii

In addition to the binary objects they normally accept, the a2b_ functions now all also accept ASCII-only strings as input. (Contributed by Antoine Pitrou in bpo-13637 .)

bz2

bz2 module has been rewritten from scratch. In the process, several new features have been added:

  • New bz2.open() function: open a bzip2-compressed file in binary or text mode.

  • bz2.BZ2File can now read from and write to arbitrary file-like objects, by means of its constructor’s fileobj 自变量。

    (Contributed by Nadeem Vawda in bpo-5863 .)

  • bz2.BZ2File and bz2.decompress() can now decompress multi-stream inputs (such as those produced by the pbzip2 tool). bz2.BZ2File can now also be used to create this type of file, using the 'a' (append) mode.

    (Contributed by Nir Aides in bpo-1625 .)

  • bz2.BZ2File now implements all of the io.BufferedIOBase API, except for the detach() and truncate() 方法。

codecs

mbcs codec has been rewritten to handle correctly replace and ignore error handlers on all Windows versions. The mbcs codec now supports all error handlers, instead of only replace to encode and ignore 解码。

A new Windows-only codec has been added: cp65001 ( bpo-13216 ). It is the Windows code page 65001 (Windows UTF-8, CP_UTF8 ). For example, it is used by sys.stdout if the console output code page is set to cp65001 (e.g., using chcp 65001 command).

Multibyte CJK decoders now resynchronize faster. They only ignore the first byte of an invalid byte sequence. For example, b'\xff\n'.decode('gb2312', 'replace') now returns a \n after the replacement character.

( bpo-12016 )

Incremental CJK codec encoders are no longer reset at each call to their encode() methods. For example: 

>>> import codecs
>>> encoder = codecs.getincrementalencoder('hz')('strict')
>>> b''.join(encoder.encode(x) for x in '\u52ff\u65bd\u65bc\u4eba\u3002 Bye.')
b'~{NpJ)l6HK!#~} Bye.'

This example gives b'~{Np~}~{J)~}~{l6~}~{HK~}~{!#~} Bye.' with older Python versions.

( bpo-12100 )

unicode_internal codec has been deprecated.

collections

Addition of a new ChainMap class to allow treating a number of mappings as a single unit. (Written by Raymond Hettinger for bpo-11089 , made public in bpo-11297 .)

The abstract base classes have been moved in a new collections.abc module, to better differentiate between the abstract and the concrete collections classes. Aliases for ABCs are still present in the collections module to preserve existing imports. ( bpo-11085 )

Counter class now supports the unary + and - operators, as well as the in-place operators += , -= , |= ，和 &= . (Contributed by Raymond Hettinger in bpo-13121 .)

contextlib

ExitStack now provides a solid foundation for programmatic manipulation of context managers and similar cleanup functionality. Unlike the previous contextlib.nested API (which was deprecated and removed), the new API is designed to work correctly regardless of whether context managers acquire their resources in their __init__ method (for example, file objects) or in their __enter__ method (for example, synchronisation objects from the threading module).

crypt

Addition of salt and modular crypt format (hashing method) and the mksalt() function to the crypt 模块。

( bpo-10924 )

curses

  • 若 curses module is linked to the ncursesw library, use Unicode functions when Unicode strings or characters are passed (e.g. waddwstr() ), and bytes functions otherwise (e.g. waddstr() ).
  • Use the locale encoding instead of utf-8 to encode Unicode strings.
  • curses.window has a new curses.window.encoding 属性。
  • curses.window class has a new get_wch() method to get a wide character
  • curses module has a new unget_wch() function to push a wide character so the next get_wch() will return it

decimal

bpo-7652 - integrate fast native decimal arithmetic.
C-module and libmpdec written by Stefan Krah.

The new C version of the decimal module integrates the high speed libmpdec library for arbitrary precision correctly-rounded decimal floating point arithmetic. libmpdec conforms to IBM’s General Decimal Arithmetic Specification.

Performance gains range from 10x for database applications to 100x for numerically intensive applications. These numbers are expected gains for standard precisions used in decimal floating point arithmetic. Since the precision is user configurable, the exact figures may vary. For example, in integer bignum arithmetic the differences can be significantly higher.

The following table is meant as an illustration. Benchmarks are available at http://www.bytereef.org/mpdecimal/quickstart.html .

  decimal.py _decimal speedup
pi 42.02s 0.345s 120x
telco 172.19s 5.68s 30x
psycopg 3.57s 0.29s 12x

特征

  • FloatOperation signal optionally enables stricter semantics for mixing floats and Decimals.
  • If Python is compiled without threads, the C version automatically disables the expensive thread local context machinery. In this case, the variable HAVE_THREADS 被设为 False .

API 变化

  • The C module has the following context limits, depending on the machine architecture:

      32-bit 64-bit
    MAX_PREC 425000000 999999999999999999
    MAX_EMAX 425000000 999999999999999999
    MIN_EMIN -425000000 -999999999999999999

  • In the context templates ( DefaultContext , BasicContext and ExtendedContext ) the magnitude of Emax and Emin has changed to 999999 .

  • Decimal constructor in decimal.py does not observe the context limits and converts values with arbitrary exponents or precision exactly. Since the C version has internal limits, the following scheme is used: If possible, values are converted exactly, otherwise InvalidOperation is raised and the result is NaN. In the latter case it is always possible to use create_decimal() in order to obtain a rounded or inexact value.

  • The power function in decimal.py is always correctly-rounded. In the C version, it is defined in terms of the correctly-rounded exp() and ln() functions, but the final result is only “almost always correctly rounded”.

  • In the C version, the context dictionary containing the signals is a MutableMapping . For speed reasons, flags and traps always refer to the same MutableMapping that the context was initialized with. If a new signal dictionary is assigned, flags and traps are updated with the new values, but they do not reference the RHS dictionary.

  • Pickling a Context produces a different output in order to have a common interchange format for the Python and C versions.

  • The order of arguments in the Context constructor has been changed to match the order displayed by repr() .

  • watchexp parameter in the quantize() method is deprecated.

email

Policy Framework

The email package now has a policy framework. A Policy is an object with several methods and properties that control how the email package behaves. The primary policy for Python 3.3 is the Compat32 policy, which provides backward compatibility with the email package in Python 3.2. A policy can be specified when an email message is parsed by a parser , or when a Message object is created, or when an email is serialized using a generator . Unless overridden, a policy passed to a parser is inherited by all the Message object and sub-objects created by the parser . By default a generator will use the policy of the Message object it is serializing. The default policy is compat32 .

The minimum set of controls implemented by all policy objects are:

max_line_length The maximum length, excluding the linesep character(s), individual lines may have when a Message is serialized. Defaults to 78.
linesep The character used to separate individual lines when a Message is serialized. Defaults to \n .
cte_type 7bit or 8bit . 8bit applies only to a 字节 generator , and means that non-ASCII may be used where allowed by the protocol (or where it exists in the original input).
raise_on_defect Causes a parser to raise error when defects are encountered instead of adding them to the Message object’s defects list.

A new policy instance, with new settings, is created using the clone() method of policy objects. clone takes any of the above controls as keyword arguments. Any control not specified in the call retains its default value. Thus you can create a policy that uses \r\n linesep characters like this: 

mypolicy = compat32.clone(linesep='\r\n')

Policies can be used to make the generation of messages in the format needed by your application simpler. Instead of having to remember to specify linesep='\r\n' in all the places you call a generator , you can specify it once, when you set the policy used by the parser 或 Message , whichever your program uses to create Message objects. On the other hand, if you need to generate messages in multiple forms, you can still specify the parameters in the appropriate generator call. Or you can have custom policy instances for your different cases, and pass those in when you create the generator .

Provisional Policy with New Header API

While the policy framework is worthwhile all by itself, the main motivation for introducing it is to allow the creation of new policies that implement new features for the email package in a way that maintains backward compatibility for those who do not use the new policies. Because the new policies introduce a new API, we are releasing them in Python 3.3 as a provisional policy . Backwards incompatible changes (up to and including removal of the code) may occur if deemed necessary by the core developers.

The new policies are instances of EmailPolicy , and add the following additional controls:

refold_source Controls whether or not headers parsed by a parser are refolded by the generator . It can be none , long ，或 all 。默认为 long , which means that source headers with a line longer than max_line_length get refolded. none means no line get refolded, and all means that all lines get refolded.
header_factory A callable that take a name and value and produces a custom header object.

header_factory is the key to the new features provided by the new policies. When one of the new policies is used, any header retrieved from a Message object is an object produced by the header_factory , and any time you set a header on a Message it becomes an object produced by header_factory . All such header objects have a name attribute equal to the header name. Address and Date headers have additional attributes that give you access to the parsed data of the header. This means you can now do things like this: 

>>> m = Message(policy=SMTP)
>>> m['To'] = 'Éric <foo@example.com>'
>>> m['to']
'Éric <foo@example.com>'
>>> m['to'].addresses
(Address(display_name='Éric', username='foo', domain='example.com'),)
>>> m['to'].addresses[0].username
'foo'
>>> m['to'].addresses[0].display_name
'Éric'
>>> m['Date'] = email.utils.localtime()
>>> m['Date'].datetime
datetime.datetime(2012, 5, 25, 21, 39, 24, 465484, tzinfo=datetime.timezone(datetime.timedelta(-1, 72000), 'EDT'))
>>> m['Date']
'Fri, 25 May 2012 21:44:27 -0400'
>>> print(m)
To: =?utf-8?q?=C3=89ric?= <foo@example.com>
Date: Fri, 25 May 2012 21:44:27 -0400

You will note that the unicode display name is automatically encoded as utf-8 when the message is serialized, but that when the header is accessed directly, you get the unicode version. This eliminates any need to deal with the email.header decode_header() or make_header() 函数。

You can also create addresses from parts: 

>>> m['cc'] = [Group('pals', [Address('Bob', 'bob', 'example.com'),
...                           Address('Sally', 'sally', 'example.com')]),
...            Address('Bonzo', addr_spec='bonz@laugh.com')]
>>> print(m)
To: =?utf-8?q?=C3=89ric?= <foo@example.com>
Date: Fri, 25 May 2012 21:44:27 -0400
cc: pals: Bob <bob@example.com>, Sally <sally@example.com>;, Bonzo <bonz@laugh.com>

Decoding to unicode is done automatically: 

>>> m2 = message_from_string(str(m))
>>> m2['to']
'Éric <foo@example.com>'

When you parse a message, you can use the addresses and groups attributes of the header objects to access the groups and individual addresses: 

>>> m2['cc'].addresses
(Address(display_name='Bob', username='bob', domain='example.com'), Address(display_name='Sally', username='sally', domain='example.com'), Address(display_name='Bonzo', username='bonz', domain='laugh.com'))
>>> m2['cc'].groups
(Group(display_name='pals', addresses=(Address(display_name='Bob', username='bob', domain='example.com'), Address(display_name='Sally', username='sally', domain='example.com')), Group(display_name=None, addresses=(Address(display_name='Bonzo', username='bonz', domain='laugh.com'),))

In summary, if you use one of the new policies, header manipulation works the way it ought to: your application works with unicode strings, and the email package transparently encodes and decodes the unicode to and from the RFC standard Content Transfer Encodings.

(Contributed by David Townshend in bpo-12760 .)

The constructor of the TextIOWrapper class has a new write_through optional argument. If write_through is True , calls to write() are guaranteed not to be buffered: any data written on the TextIOWrapper object is immediately handled to its underlying binary buffer.

itertools

accumulate() now takes an optional func argument for providing a user-supplied binary function.

logging

basicConfig() function now supports an optional handlers argument taking an iterable of handlers to be added to the root logger.

A class level attribute append_nul has been added to SysLogHandler to allow control of the appending of the NUL ( \000 ) byte to syslog records, since for some deamons it is required while for others it is passed through to the log.

math

math module has a new function, log2() , which returns the base-2 logarithm of x .

multiprocessing.Process now accepts a daemon keyword argument to override the default behavior of inheriting the daemon flag from the parent process ( bpo-6064 ).

New attribute multiprocessing.Process.sentinel allows a program to wait on multiple Process objects at one time using the appropriate OS primitives (for example, select on posix systems).

New methods multiprocessing.pool.Pool.starmap() and starmap_async() provide itertools.starmap() equivalents to the existing multiprocessing.pool.Pool.map() and map_async() functions. (Contributed by Hynek Schlawack in bpo-12708 .)

nntplib

nntplib.NNTP class now supports the context management protocol to unconditionally consume socket.error exceptions and to close the NNTP connection when done:

  • Several functions now take an optional symlinks argument: when that parameter is true, symlinks aren’t dereferenced and the operation instead acts on the symlink itself (or creates one, if relevant). (Contributed by Hynek Schlawack in bpo-12715 .)
  • When copying files to a different file system, move() now handles symlinks the way the posix mv command does, recreating the symlink rather than copying the target file contents. (Contributed by Jonathan Niehof in bpo-9993 .) move() now also returns the dst argument as its result.
  • rmtree() is now resistant to symlink attacks on platforms which support the new dir_fd parameter in os.open() and os.unlink() . (Contributed by Martin von Löwis and Hynek Schlawack in bpo-4489 .)

signal

smtpd

smtpd module now supports RFC 5321 (extended SMTP) and RFC 1870 (size extension). Per the standard, these extensions are enabled if and only if the client initiates the session with an EHLO 命令。

threading

threading.Condition , threading.Semaphore , threading.BoundedSemaphore , threading.Event ，和 threading.Timer , all of which used to be factory functions returning a class instance, are now classes and may be subclassed. (Contributed by Éric Araujo in bpo-10968 .)

threading.Thread constructor now accepts a daemon keyword argument to override the default behavior of inheriting the deamon flag value from the parent thread ( bpo-6064 ).

The formerly private function _thread.get_ident is now available as the public function threading.get_ident() . This eliminates several cases of direct access to the _thread module in the stdlib. Third party code that used _thread.get_ident should likewise be changed to use the new public interface.

time

PEP 418 added new functions to the time 模块：

  • get_clock_info() : Get information on a clock.
  • monotonic() : Monotonic clock (cannot go backward), not affected by system clock updates.
  • perf_counter() : Performance counter with the highest available resolution to measure a short duration.
  • process_time() : Sum of the system and user CPU time of the current process.

Other new functions:

To improve cross platform consistency, sleep() now raises a ValueError when passed a negative sleep value. Previously this was an error on posix, but produced an infinite sleep on Windows.

types

Add a new types.MappingProxyType class: Read-only proxy of a mapping. ( bpo-14386 )

The new functions types.new_class() and types.prepare_class() provide support for PEP 3115 compliant dynamic type creation. ( bpo-14588 )

webbrowser

webbrowser module supports more “browsers”: Google Chrome (named chrome , chromium , chrome-browser or chromium-browser depending on the version and operating system), and the generic launchers xdg-open , from the FreeDesktop.org project, and gvfs-open , which is the default URI handler for GNOME 3. (The former contributed by Arnaud Calmettes in bpo-13620 , the latter by Matthias Klose in bpo-14493 .)

xml.etree.ElementTree

xml.etree.ElementTree module now imports its C accelerator by default; there is no longer a need to explicitly import xml.etree.cElementTree (this module stays for backwards compatibility, but is now deprecated). In addition, the iter family of methods of 元素 has been optimized (rewritten in C). The module’s documentation has also been greatly improved with added examples and a more detailed reference.

zlib

New attribute zlib.Decompress.eof makes it possible to distinguish between a properly-formed compressed stream and an incomplete or truncated one. (Contributed by Nadeem Vawda in bpo-12646 .)

New attribute zlib.ZLIB_RUNTIME_VERSION reports the version string of the underlying zlib library that is loaded at runtime. (Contributed by Torsten Landschoff in bpo-12306 .)

优化

Major performance enhancements have been added:

  • Thanks to PEP 393 , some operations on Unicode strings have been optimized:

    • the memory footprint is divided by 2 to 4 depending on the text
    • encode an ASCII string to UTF-8 doesn’t need to encode characters anymore, the UTF-8 representation is shared with the ASCII representation
    • the UTF-8 encoder has been optimized
    • repeating a single ASCII letter and getting a substring of an ASCII string is 4 times faster

  • UTF-8 is now 2x to 4x faster. UTF-16 encoding is now up to 10x faster.

移植到 Python 3.3

This section lists previously described changes and other bugfixes that may require changes to your code.

移植 Python 代码

  • Hash randomization is enabled by default. Set the PYTHONHASHSEED environment variable to 0 to disable hash randomization. See also the object.__hash__() 方法。
  • bpo-12326 : On Linux, sys.platform doesn’t contain the major version anymore. It is now always ‘linux’, instead of ‘linux2’ or ‘linux3’ depending on the Linux version used to build Python. Replace sys.platform == ‘linux2’ with sys.platform.startswith(‘linux’), or directly sys.platform == ‘linux’ if you don’t need to support older Python versions.
  • bpo-13847 , bpo-14180 : time and datetime : OverflowError is now raised instead of ValueError if a timestamp is out of range. OSError is now raised if C functions gmtime() or localtime() failed.
  • The default finders used by import now utilize a cache of what is contained within a specific directory. If you create a Python source file or sourceless bytecode file, make sure to call importlib.invalidate_caches() to clear out the cache for the finders to notice the new file.
  • ImportError now uses the full name of the module that was attempted to be imported. Doctests that check ImportErrors’ message will need to be updated to use the full name of the module instead of just the tail of the name.
  • index 自变量为 __import__() now defaults to 0 instead of -1 and no longer support negative values. It was an oversight when PEP 328 was implemented that the default value remained -1. If you need to continue to perform a relative import followed by an absolute import, then perform the relative import using an index of 1, followed by another import using an index of 0. It is preferred, though, that you use importlib.import_module() rather than call __import__() 直接。
  • __import__() no longer allows one to use an index value other than 0 for top-level modules. E.g. __import__('sys', level=1) is now an error.
  • 因为 sys.meta_path and sys.path_hooks now have finders on them by default, you will most likely want to use list.insert() 而不是 list.append() to add to those lists.
  • 因为 None is now inserted into sys.path_importer_cache , if you are clearing out entries in the dictionary of paths that do not have a finder, you will need to remove keys paired with values of None and imp.NullImporter to be backwards-compatible. This will lead to extra overhead on older versions of Python that re-insert None into sys.path_importer_cache where it represents the use of implicit finders, but semantically it should not change anything.
  • importlib.abc.Finder no longer specifies a find_module() abstract method that must be implemented. If you were relying on subclasses to implement that method, make sure to check for the method’s existence first. You will probably want to check for find_loader() first, though, in the case of working with 路径条目查找器 .
  • pkgutil has been converted to use importlib internally. This eliminates many edge cases where the old behaviour of the PEP 302 import emulation failed to match the behaviour of the real import system. The import emulation itself is still present, but is now deprecated. The pkgutil.iter_importers() and pkgutil.walk_packages() functions special case the standard import hooks so they are still supported even though they do not provide the non-standard iter_modules() 方法。
  • A longstanding RFC-compliance bug ( bpo-1079 ) in the parsing done by email.header.decode_header() has been fixed. Code that uses the standard idiom to convert encoded headers into unicode ( str(make_header(decode_header(h)) ) will see no change, but code that looks at the individual tuples returned by decode_header will see that whitespace that precedes or follows ASCII sections is now included in the ASCII section. Code that builds headers using make_header should also continue to work without change, since make_header continues to add whitespace between ASCII and non- ASCII sections if it is not already present in the input strings.
  • email.utils.formataddr() now does the correct content transfer encoding when passed non- ASCII display names. Any code that depended on the previous buggy behavior that preserved the non- ASCII unicode in the formatted output string will need to be changed ( bpo-1690608 ).
  • poplib.POP3.quit() may now raise protocol errors like all other poplib methods. Code that assumes quit does not raise poplib.error_proto errors may need to be changed if errors on quit are encountered by a particular application ( bpo-11291 ).
  • strict 自变量为 email.parser.Parser , deprecated since Python 2.4, has finally been removed.
  • The deprecated method unittest.TestCase.assertSameElements has been removed.
  • The deprecated variable time.accept2dyear has been removed.
  • The deprecated Context._clamp attribute has been removed from the decimal module. It was previously replaced by the public attribute clamp . (See bpo-8540 .)
  • The undocumented internal helper class SSLFakeFile has been removed from smtplib , since its functionality has long been provided directly by socket.socket.makefile() .
  • Passing a negative value to time.sleep() on Windows now raises an error instead of sleeping forever. It has always raised an error on posix.
  • ast.__version__ constant has been removed. If you need to make decisions affected by the AST version, use sys.version_info to make the decision.
  • Code that used to work around the fact that the threading module used factory functions by subclassing the private classes will need to change to subclass the now-public classes.
  • The undocumented debugging machinery in the threading module has been removed, simplifying the code. This should have no effect on production code, but is mentioned here in case any application debug frameworks were interacting with it ( bpo-13550 ).

Porting C code

  • In the course of changes to the buffer API the undocumented smalltable member of the Py_buffer structure has been removed and the layout of the PyMemoryViewObject 已改变。

    All extensions relying on the relevant parts in memoryobject.h or object.h must be rebuilt.

  • Due to PEP 393 ， Py_UNICODE type and all functions using this type are deprecated (but will stay available for at least five years). If you were using low-level Unicode APIs to construct and access unicode objects and you want to benefit of the memory footprint reduction provided by PEP 393, you have to convert your code to the new Unicode API .

    However, if you only have been using high-level functions such as PyUnicode_Concat() , PyUnicode_Join() or PyUnicode_FromFormat() , your code will automatically take advantage of the new unicode representations.

  • PyImport_GetMagicNumber() now returns -1 当故障时。

  • As a negative value for the level 自变量为 __import__() is no longer valid, the same now holds for PyImport_ImportModuleLevel() . This also means that the value of level used by PyImport_ImportModuleEx() 现为 0 而不是 -1 .

Building C extensions

  • The range of possible file names for C extensions has been narrowed. Very rarely used spellings have been suppressed: under POSIX, files named xxxmodule.so , xxxmodule.abi3.so and xxxmodule.cpython-*.so are no longer recognized as implementing the xxx module. If you had been generating such files, you have to switch to the other spellings (i.e., remove the 模块 string from the file names).

    (implemented in bpo-14040 .)

Command Line Switch Changes

  • The -Q command-line flag and related artifacts have been removed. Code checking sys.flags.division_warning will need updating.

  • 当 python is started with -S , import site will no longer add site-specific paths to the module search paths. In previous versions, it did.
