Here’s the today changelog: implemented time.mktime() implemented time.asctime() implemented altzone, timezone, tzname, daylight attributes implemented time.struct_time type gmtime(), localtime() return struct_time instances asctime(), mktime() accept struct_time as argument implemented time.tzset() the time module is almost finished. It lacks time.strftime() and time.strptime()

clock() has been fixed to work correctly under FreeBSD ctime(), localtime() and gmtime() have been implemented I’ve also checked in a little script to bench ctypes-versions of the time routines.

Hit the clock (on Windows)

Windows in the VM is up and running (very well to be honest). So I managed to test the code on it and fix the bugs (win32 API is quite a mess for some things ). I’ve also installed PC-BSD because it’s a desktop operating system based upon FreeBSD 6.0 so I can test on [...]

Computer setup and first info

In this exact time I’m trying to complete the setup of the virtual machine I need to work. Since ctypes runs on Windows, MacOS X, Linux, Solaris and FreeBSD I’m gonna do my best to test it on all this platforms. I have a dual boot machine with Linux and WinXP but to work dualboot [...]

Ready to roll on the summer of code

I’ve been accepted in the 2006 Google’s Summer Of Code! Yay, that’s great. Now I’m gonna do my best to complete the project in a way that satisfy me and my organization. Here’s some details for you all: organization: Python Software Foundation project: PyPy proposal: I’m going to port some CPython modules to Python + [...]
