(#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.

(#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.internet.interfaces.IFinishableConsumer is now deprecated. (#2661) - twisted.python.zshcomp is now deprecated in favor of the tab- completion system in twisted.python.usage (#3078) - The unzip and unzipIter functions in twisted.python.zipstream are now deprecated.

(#4760) - twisted.web.twcgi no longer adds an extra "content-type" header to CGI responses. (#4786) - twisted.web will now properly specify an encoding (UTF-8) on error, redirect, and directory listing pages, so that IE7 and previous will not improperly guess the 'utf7' encoding in these cases. Please note that Twisted still sets a *default* content-type of 'text/html', and you shouldn't rely on that: you should set the encoding appropriately in your application. (#4900) - twisted.web.http.Request.setHost now sets the port in the host header if it is not the default. (#4918) - default NOT_IMPLEMENTED and NOT_ALLOWED pages now quote the request method and URI respectively, to protect against browsers which don't quote those values for us. (#4978) Improved Documentation ---------------------- - The XML-RPC howto now includes an example demonstrating how to access the HTTP request object in a server-side XML-RPC method.

(#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.

(#4483) Other ----- - #4677 Twisted Lore 10.2.0 (2010-11-29) ================================ No significant changes have been made for this release. Other ----- - #4571 Twisted Mail 10.2.0 (2010-11-29) ================================ Improved Documentation ---------------------- - The email server example now demonstrates how to set up authentication and authorization using twisted.cred. (#4609) Deprecations and Removals ------------------------- - twisted.mail.smtp.sendEmail, deprecated since mid 2003 (before Twisted 2.0), has been removed. (#4529) Other ----- - #4038, #4572 Twisted Names 10.2.0 (2010-11-29) ================================= Features -------- - twisted.names.server can now serve SPF resource records using 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 ---------------------- - Tidied up the Twisted Names documentation for easier conversion. (#4573) Twisted News 10.2.0 (2010-11-29) ================================ Bugfixes -------- - twisted.news.database.PickleStorage now invokes the email APIs correctly, allowing it to actually send moderation emails. (#4528) Twisted Pair 10.2.0 (2010-11-29) ================================ No significant changes have been made for this release. Twisted Runner 10.2.0 (2010-11-29) ================================== No significant changes have been made for this release. Twisted Web 10.2.0 (2010-11-29) =============================== 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.web.trp, which has been deprecated since Twisted 9.0, was removed. (#4299) Other ----- - #4576, #4577, #4709, #4723 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) - twisted.words.im.ircsupport.IRCProto now sends the correct name in 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) - twisted.trial.util.findObject has been deprecated. (#3108) - twisted.python.threadpool.ThreadSafeList is deprecated and Jython platform detection in Twisted core removed (#3725) - twisted.internet.interfaces.IUDPConnectedTransport has been removed (deprecated since Twisted 9.0).

(#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.

(#4463) - twisted.conch.ssh.connection.SSHConnection now replies to requests to open an unknown channel with a OPEN_UNKNOWN_CHANNEL_TYPE message instead of closing the connection. (#4490) Deprecations and Removals ------------------------- - twisted.conch.insults.client was deprecated. (#4095) - twisted.conch.insults.colors has been deprecated. Please use twisted.conch.insults.helper instead. (#4096) - Removed twisted.conch.ssh.asn1, which has been deprecated since Twisted 9.0. (#4097) - Removed twisted.conch.ssh.common.Entropy, as Entropy.get_bytes has been deprecated since 2007 and Entropy.get_bytes was the only attribute of Entropy.
