| 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) |
| |
| Deprecations and Removals |
| ------------------------- |
| - twisted.internet.defer.Deferred.setTimeout has been removed, after |
| being deprecated since Twisted 2.0. (#1702) |
| - twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorTime.cancelCallLater |
| (deprecated since 2007) and |
| twisted.internet.interfaces.base.ReactorBase.cancelCallLater |
| (deprecated since 2002) have been removed. (#4076) |

| twisted.protocols.basic (previously used by `NetstringReceiver`) |
| are now deprecated. (#4541) |
| - twisted.protocols.basic.SafeNetstringReceiver, deprecated since |
| 2001 (before Twisted 2.0), was removed. (#4546) |
| - twisted.python.threadable.whenThreaded, deprecated since Twisted |
| 2.2.0, has been removed. (#4550) |
| - twisted.python.timeoutqueue, deprecated since Twisted 8.0, has been |
| removed. (#4551) |
| - iocpreactor transports can no longer be pickled. (#4617) |

| now fires with an OptionRefused failure if the peer responds with a |
| refusal for the option negotiation. (#4231) |
| - SSHServerTransport and SSHClientTransport in |
| twisted.conch.ssh.transport no longer use PyCrypto to generate |
| random numbers for DH KEX. They also now generate values from the |

| twisted.names.dns.Record_SPF. twisted.names.client can query for |
| them using lookupSenderPolicy. (#3928) |
| |
| Bugfixes |
| -------- |
| - twisted.names.common.extractRecords doesn't try to close the |
| transport anymore in case of recursion, as it's done by the |
| Resolver itself now. (#3998) |
| |
| Improved Documentation |

| =============================== |
| |
| Features |
| -------- |
| - twisted.web.xmlrpc.XMLRPC.xmlrpc_* methods can now be decorated |
| using withRequest to cause them to be passed the HTTP request |
| object. (#3073) |
| |
| Bugfixes |
| -------- |
| - twisted.web.xmlrpc.QueryProtocol.handleResponse now disconnects |
| from the server, meaning that Twisted XML-RPC clients disconnect |
| from the server as soon as they receive a response, rather than |
| relying on the server to disconnect. (#2518) |
| - twisted.web.twcgi now generates responses containing all |
| occurrences of duplicate headers produced by CGI scripts, not just |
| the last value. (#4742) |
| |
| Deprecations and Removals |

| Twisted Words 10.2.0 (2010-11-29) |
| ================================= |
| |
| Features |
| -------- |
| - twisted.words.protocols.irc.IRCClient.msg now enforces a maximum |
| length for messages, splitting up messages that are too long. |
| (#4416) |
| |
| Bugfixes |
| -------- |
| - twisted.words.protocols.irc.IRCClient no longer invokes privmsg() |
| in the default noticed() implementation. (#4419) |

| the USER command. (#4641) |
| |
| Deprecations and Removals |
| ------------------------- |
| - Remove twisted.words.im.proxyui and twisted.words.im.tap. (#1823) |
| |
| |
| 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) |
| - Fix a bunch of small but important defects in the INSTALL, README |
| 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) |
| - doc/core/howto/listing/pb/chatclient.py can now actually send a |
| group message. (#4459) |
| |
| Deprecations and Removals |
| ------------------------- |
| - twisted.internet.interfaces.IReactorArbitrary, |
| twisted.application.internet.GenericServer, and |
| twisted.application.internet.GenericClient are now deprecated. |
| (#367) |
| - twisted.internet.gtkreactor is now deprecated. (#2833) |

| - Removed twisted.application.app.runWithHotshot, which has been |
| deprecated since Twisted 8.0. (#4091) |
| - Removed twisted.application.app.ApplicationRunner.startLogging, |
| which has been deprecated (doesn't say since when), as well as |
| support for the legacy |
| twisted.application.app.ApplicationRunner.getLogObserver method. |
| (#4092) |
| - twisted.application.app.reportProfile has been removed. (#4093) |
| - twisted.application.app.getLogFile has been removed. (#4094) |
| - Removed twisted.cred.util.py, which has been deprecated since |
| Twisted 8.3. (#4107) |
| - twisted.python.util.dsu is now deprecated. (#4339) |

| |
| |
| 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 Web 10.0.0 (2010-03-01) |
| =============================== |
| |
| Features |
| -------- |
| - Twisted Web in 60 Seconds, a series of short tutorials with self- |
| contained examples on a range of common web topics, is now a part |
| of the Twisted Web howto documentation. (#4192) |
| |
| Bugfixes |
| -------- |
| - Data and File from twisted.web.static and |
| twisted.web.distrib.UserDirectory will now only generate a 200 |
| response for GET or HEAD requests. |

| object. (#3212) |
| |
| - The Error, PageRedirect, and InfiniteRedirection exception in |

| - The 'wsgi.input' WSGI environment object now supports -1 and None |
| as arguments to the read and readlines methods. (#4114) |

| complying with the WSGI reference implementation. (#4143) |
| |
| - The HTTP proxy will no longer pass on keep-alive request headers |
| from the client, preventing pages from loading then "hanging" |
| (leaving the connection open with no hope of termination). (#4179) |
| |
| Deprecations and Removals |
| ------------------------- |
| - Remove '--static' option from twistd web, that served as an alias |
| for the '--path' option. (#3907) |

| level of children, instead of only on grandchildren. This allows for better |
| symlink cycle detection (#3911) |

| Twisted Conch 9.0.0 (2009-11-24) |
| ================================ |
| |
| Fixes |
| ----- |

| no shell (#3914) |
| |
| Deprecations and Removals |

| - The buggy SSH connection sharing feature of the SSHv2 client was removed |
| (#3498) |

| that the lexical sorting of messages matches the order in which they were |
| received (#3812) |

| GET instead of another POST (#3624) |
| - A new basic HTTP/1.1 client API is included in twisted.web.client.Agent |

| |
| Fixes |

| - Requests for "insecure" children of a static.File (such as paths containing |
| encoded directory separators) will now result in a 404 instead of a 500 |
| (#3549, #3469) |
| - When specifying a followRedirect argument to the getPage function, the state |
| of redirect-following for other getPage calls should now be unaffected. It |
| was previously overwriting a class attribute which would affect outstanding |
| getPage calls (#3192) |
| - Downloading an URL of the form "http://example.com:/" will now work, |
| ignoring the extraneous colon (#2402) |
| - microdom's appendChild method will no longer issue a spurious warning, and |
| microdom's methods in general should now issue more meaningful exceptions |
| when invalid parameters are passed (#3421) |
| - WSGI applications will no longer have spurious Content-Type headers added to |
| their responses by the twisted.web server. In addition, WSGI applications |

| to it in the same way that it normalizes the headers passed to setRawHeaders |

| - twisted.web.domhelpers now works with both microdom and minidom (#3600) |

| of returning a 500 error (#3601) |
| - Certain request-bound memory and file resources are cleaned up slightly |
| sooner by the request when the connection is lost (#1621, #3176) |
| - xmlrpclib.DateTime objects should now correctly round-trip over twisted.web's |
| XMLRPC support in all supported versions of Python, and errors during error |
| serialization will no longer hang a twisted.web XMLRPC response (#2446) |
| - request.content should now always be seeked to the beginning when |
| request.process is called, so application code should never need to seek |
| back manually (#3585) |

| "example//foo.html") should now return a 404 instead of a traceback and |
| 500 error (#3631) |
| - downloadPage will now fire a Failure on its returned Deferred instead of |
| indicating success when the connection is prematurely lost (#3645) |
| - static.File will now provide a 404 instead of a 500 error when it was |
| constructed with a non-existent file (#3634) |

| - The HTTP Auth support resource wrapper should no longer corrupt requests and |
| cause them to skip a segment in the request path (#3679) |
| - The twisted.web WSGI support should now include leading slashes in PATH_INFO, |
| and SCRIPT_NAME will be empty if the application is at the root of the |
| resource tree. This means that WSGI applications should no longer generate |
| URLs with double-slashes in them even if they naively concatenate the values |
| (#3721) |
| - WSGI applications should now receive the requesting client's IP in the |
| REMOTE_ADDR environment variable (#3730) |
| - The distrib module should work again. It was unfortunately broken with the |
| refactoring of twisted.web's header support (#3697) |
| - static.File now supports multiple ranges specified in the Range header |
| (#3574) |
| - static.File should now generate a correct Content-Length value when the |
| requested Range value doesn't fit entirely within the file's contents (#3814) |
| - Attempting to call request.finish() after the connection has been lost will |
| now immediately raise a RuntimeError (#4013) |
| - An HTTP-auth resource should now be able to directly render the wrapped |
| avatar, whereas before it would only allow retrieval of child resources |
| (#4014) |
| - twisted.web's wsgi support should no longer attempt to call request.finish |
| twice, which would cause errors in certain cases (#4025) |
| - WSGI applications should now be able to handle requests with large bodies |
| (#4029) |
| - Exceptions raised from WSGI applications should now more reliably be turned |
| into 500 errors on the HTTP level (#4019) |
| - DeferredResource now correctly passes through exceptions raised from the |
| wrapped resource, instead of turning them all into 500 errors (#3932) |
| - Agent.request now generates a Host header when no headers are passed at |
| (#4131) |
