developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
Changes since 0.4.7:
- Traceback text is now cached.
- Tracebacks can be propagated across sockets as text.
- Added makeLogRecord() to allow a LogRecord to be created from a dictionary.
- Closing a handler now removes it from the internal list used by shutdown().
- Made close() call flush() for handlers where this makes
sense (thanks to Jim Jewett).
- The exc_info keyword parameter can be used to pass an exception tuple as
well as a flag indicating that the current exception should be logged.
- A shutdown hook is registered to call shutdown() on
application (Python) exit (thanks to Jim Jewett).
- Removed redundant error check in setLoggerClass().
- Added RESET_ERROR to logging.config.
- SocketHandler now uses an exponential backoff strategy.
- Minor documentation corrections.
- Made _listener global in stopListening().
- Made listen() correctly pass the specified port.
- Removed some redundant imports in __init__.py.
- Added the record being processed as a parameter to handleError.
- Handler.handle returns the result of applying the filter to the record.
- Added a seek(0, 2) in RotatingFileHandler before the
tell() call. This is because under Windows, tell()
returns 0 until the first actual write.
- Altered findCaller to not use inspect.
- Renamed warn and WARN to warning and WARNING. This may break
existing code, but the standard Python module will use
warning/WARNING rather than warn/WARN. The fatal and FATAL synonyms
for critical and CRITICAL have also been removed.
- Added defaultEncoding and some support for encoding Unicode messages.
- Added process ID to the list of LogRecord attributes.
- Modified Logger.removeHandler so that it does not
close the handler on removal.
- Modified SMTPHandler to treat a single "to address" correctly.
- Modified SMTPHandler to add a date header to the SMTP message.
- Modified HTTPHandler to factor out the mapping of
a LogRecord to a dictionary.
Inspired by FreeBSD "ports".
Fix the PLISTs accordingly.
Also, while at it, remove now obsolete compileall.py calls in post-install
targets and insure that extension.mk is in included before builinlinks of
other Python modules.
