'peak.running.options' is now a thin wrapper over 'peak.cli.options', 
from the separately-distributed 'CLI-Tools' package.

Added "paramstyle" support for SQL connections, so you can write 
backend-agnostic SQL with parameters.  See CHANGES.txt for usage 
details.

Revision 2107 - (view) (download) - [select for diffs]

File length: 26678 byte(s)
Diff to previous 2073 , to selected 1403
The 'peak' script is now an .exe on Windows, using setuptools' "entry point"
system.  Also, cleaned up the setup script a bit so I won't have to use
PyPI's web interface to keep the PEAK listing(s) up-to-date.  The download
URL now points to the snapshots directory, and there's a link for the
subversion release as well.  So "easy_install PEAK" will install the latest
snapshot, and "easy_install PEAK==dev" will build PEAK from source.

Revision 2073 - (view) (download) - [select for diffs]

Diff to previous 2060 , to selected 1403
PEAK no longer bundles any software that can be obtained automatically from
PyPI.  Running PEAK's setup script will attempt to download and install
the needed packages.  (Note that development snapshots of PEAK may require
development snapshots of related packages.)

Added a series of new QueryDM and EntityDM convenience features.  See
this post:

for a complete list and explanatory documentation.

Revision 2029 - (view) (download) - [select for diffs]

File length: 26073 byte(s)
Diff to previous 2028 , to selected 1403
Changed 'running.lookupCommand()' to use the command's 'getCommandParent()'
method, so that commands using the '--config' option will utilize the
specified configuration(s) to lookup subcommands.

Also, fix WSGI launchers so that their target application is created under
the --config service area, if one is specified.

Revision 2028 - (view) (download) - [select for diffs]

File length: 25864 byte(s)
Diff to previous 2021 , to selected 1403
Added a '-c/--config' option to PEAK bootstrap commands to load an .ini
configuration file in a new service area before executing any subcommands.

This allows you to do things like::

    peak launch -c bulletins ref:sitemap@sitemap.xml

which loads the 'bulletins' configuration file before launching the
sitemap.  Note that if you are subclassing 'commands.Bootstrap' you can
suppress this option using 'options.reject_inheritance("-c","--config")'
in the body of your subclass' class definition.  You may wish to do this
if your application's subcommands must run in the same service area as the
parent command.  (E.g. if the parent command expects the subcommand to
partake in a transaction controlled by the parent command.)

Added a 'value' property to 'model.Enumeration', so that you can access
an enumeration instance's value (i.e., the value it hashes and compares
equal to)

File length: 24929 byte(s)
Diff to previous 1997 , to selected 1403
Added a 'binding.hasParent(component,parent)' API function, which is
specially optimized for use with generic functions, so that you can
define generic function methods that apply only within some part of a
component hierarchy.

Also, added a 'components.txt' doctest to the binding package, that
illustrates not only the new 'hasParent()' function, but also some other
hierarchy-related APIs as well.

PEAK now requires Python 2.3.4 or better; dropped support for building
2.3 modules with 2.2.  The kjbuckets extension module is no longer built
and installed by default, either;  you must explicitly enable it with a
'--with-kjbuckets' flag passed to  'setup.py'.  Please port your code as
soon as practical, this option will go away soon.

First pass at removing all uses of 'kjbuckets'; this takes care of all but
'peak.util.MiniTable', which still uses the 'kjDict' type.

Note that this checkin also changes the ISOXNode_NS interface in
peak.util.SOX; See CHANGES.txt for details.

File length: 23667 byte(s)
Diff to previous 1978 , to selected 1403
Remove all vestigial traces of the old 'Interaction' interface/object from
peak.web.  Clean up miscellaneous cruft such as 'CGIPublisher' (now
'WSGIPublisher') and make your choice of interaction policy configurable,
which is especially important now that the interaction policy controls all
the security rules.  The 'user' of a traversal context is now a first-class
part of the traversal context, rather than hanging off of the now-useless
'interaction' attribute.

Revision 1978 - (view) (download) - [select for diffs]

Diff to previous 1977 , to selected 1403
The old 'peak.security' implementation has been removed, and replaced with
a simpler, more flexible implementation based on generic functions (using
less than half the code and seven fewer interfaces).  Complete docs
and API tests for the new implementation can be found in 'rules.txt' in
the 'peak.security' package directory.

(Note: as a side-effect of this change, the old 'security.IInteraction'
interface and 'security.Interaction' class can now be temporarily found
as 'web.IInteraction' and 'web.Interaction' respectively.  Both will soon
be refactored out of existence, however, so please update your code
accordingly!)

Also, the new implemetation does not require redundant
'security.allow(security.Anybody)' declarations just because you've
declared other permissions for a class, so these declarations have been
removed from ``peak.web``.  They don't do any harm, however, so you can
leave them in your own code as long as you change them to use
'binding.metadata()' instead of the deprecated 'security.allow()'.

Options have landed!  They're now integrated with the commands framework
(via the 'parsed_args' attribute), and support option groups for fancy
help displays.  Now we can begin adding options to PEAK's built-in
commands, such as options to control 'peak launch' and such.

Diff to previous 1942 , to selected 1403
Added a 'binding.initAttrs()' function that can be used to initialize
an object's attributes from e.g. constructor keyword arguments, similar to
how the 'binding.Component' and 'binding.Attribute' constructors work.
(Also, refactored them to use this new function instead of harcoding their
own versions.)

Diff to previous 1941 , to selected 1403
DEPRECATED 'permissionNeeded' attribute of descriptors, and removed
'security.IGuardedDescriptor'.  Please see CHANGES.txt for more details,
and information on upgrading.  Now 'peak.security' is decoupled from the
PEAK core frameworks, or more precisely, there are no "forward references"
from the PEAK core to 'peak.security', except for the temporary vestigial
implementations of 'permissionNeeded' that will be removed in the next
release.

Revision 1941 - (view) (download) - [select for diffs]

File length: 20564 byte(s)
Diff to previous 1937 , to selected 1403
Added a new "attribute metadata" mini-framework to 'peak.binding'.  This
framework makes it possible to declare arbitrary metadata about attributes,
using either a class advisor ('binding.metadata()', similar in form and
function to the existing 'security.allow()') or using a 'metadata' attribute
of attribute bindings (which is the second positional parameter in all
the standard bindings like 'Make', 'Obtain', etc.).  Over time, existing
metadata mechanisms will be refactored to use this new mini-framework,
instead of the various integrated ad-hoc mechanisms that exist now (like
the 'permissionNeeded' attribute).  For more information on how the new
metadata hooks work, including doctest examples, see the 'attributes.txt'
file in the 'peak.binding' package, under the heading "Attribute Metadata".

Diff to previous 1931 , to selected 1403
Added a new function, 'binding.activateClass()', that can be used to
activate any bindings in the class.  This can now be used in place of
subclassing a PEAK base class or using a PEAK metaclass.  In future, this
will be integrated into PEAK attribute descriptors such that defining a
descriptor within a class' body is sufficient to cause this function to be
invoked.

This is the first part of a refactoring to implement the attribute metadata
framework for PEAK.

Diff to previous 1927 , to selected 1403
'binding.IBindingNode' was REMOVED, consolidated into 'binding.IComponent',
as its various individual methods have been replaced with generic functions
in the existing 'binding' API. For example, 'binding.getParentComponent(x)'
should be used in preference to 'x.getParentComponent()' unless it is
a requirement that 'x' implement the full 'binding.IComponent' interface.
This makes it easier to define what 'binding.getParentComponent()' and
'binding.getComponentName()' will mean for non-component types, as you do
not have to define an adapter class with all of the 'IBindingNode' methods.
Also, this makes PEAK itself cleaner, as we often weren't bothering to
properly implement the full 'IBindingNode' interface anyway.

In addition, 'binding.suggestParentComponent()' is now also a generic
function, dispatching on the target (i.e. child) object.

'naming.IReferenceable' was REMOVED, as it is not in use anywhere in PEAK.
This will be replaced with a generic function when we do actually need the
functionality.

Diff to previous 1883 , to selected 1403
Migrated 'config.IStreamSource' -> 'config.getStreamFactory'.  To update
your code, change all:

    factory = config.IStreamSource(source).getFactory(context)

to:

    factory = config.getStreamFactory(context,source)

Note that 'context' comes *before* 'source' in the argument list, so this
now matches the normal order for PEAK API's that take a context parameter.

Also, if you had an implementation or adapter for IStreamSource, you'll
need to replace it with a 'config.getStreamFactory.when()' method.

Added an optional 'base' argument to 'naming.parseURL()', to allow parsing
URLs relative to a base URL.  For a URL scheme to support this, it must
implement the new 'naming.IBaseURL' interface.  See the
'peak.naming.factories.openable' module for example implementations.

Also, changed 'pkgfile:' URL implementation to actually track its 'module'
and 'path' parts separately, so that it can implement relative URLs
safely.

Added a 'data:' URL scheme, implementing RFC 2397 (although it's not as
strict in its parsing of the content type and parameters as the RFC calls
for).  This is a semi-convenient way to provide configuration data
in-line, since a 'data:' URL can be a 'config.IStreamSource'.

Added 'config.processXML()', a function that provides a high-level,
configuration-driven interface to 'peak.util.SOX.NegotiatingParser'.  This
simple front-end lets you supply as little as a configuration context and
a stream source, to do XML processing of arbitrary complexity, controlled
by the configuration of the context.

Added 'config.XMLKey()', an 'IConfigKey' type that can be used to register
configuration values for XML attribute and element names under specified
XML namespace URI's.  Also, there are now '[XML Attributes for nsuri]' and
'[XML Elements for nsuri]' section types available for use in .ini files.
(Replace 'nsuri' with the appropriate XML namespace URI, or use '*' for a
wildcard.)

'web.IResource' is gone, replaced by 'web.IPlace'.  The notion of a place is
broader than the notion of a resource, and we will soon need to have
other "location" objects that implement 'IPlace'.

In order to support obtaining the line and column locations of problems in
XML files, we are now using Python 2.4's version of the 'pyexpat' module,
built as 'peak.util.pyexpat'.  Also, added "empty" option to negotiating
XML parser, so that tags which don't want any children can force an error
if a child element appears within them.

Diff to previous 1839 , to selected 1403
Added a new class, 'config.IniLoader', that can be used to lazily load
.ini files as configuration.  'IniLoader' instances have an 'iniFiles'
attribute that lists the configuration sources (filenames/URLs/factories)
to be used, and automatically load the .ini files as soon as you try to get
any configuration data for them.  Previously, similar functionality was
only available via 'config.makeRoot()'.  Also, there's now an 'ini'
reference type that instantiates an 'IniLoader' for one or more addresses.

Please see CHANGES.txt for usage examples of both new features.

Changes to make it possible to use PEAK and PEAK apps' package data files
from .zip files:

- 'config.fileNearModule()' is DEPRECATED; use 'config.packageFile()' now.
   The latter returns a 'naming.IStreamFactory', which is more suitable for
   working with e.g. module data files compressed in a zipfile.  Uses of
   'fileNearModule()' that were being passed to 'config.loadConfigFile()'
   can be safely changed to 'config.packageFile()' without needing any
   other code changes, but if you were directly using 'fileNearModule()'
   as a filename, you will need to rewrite appropriately.

 - 'config.loadConfigFile()' and 'config.loadConfigFiles()' now accept
   URLs, 'naming.IStreamFactory' objects, and 'config.IStreamSource'
   objects as well as filenames.  This was primarily added to support use
   of 'config.packageFile()' or 'pkgfile:' URLs, in place of using
   'config.fileNearModule()'.  (ZConfig loaders support this too.)

 - There is a new 'config.IStreamSource' protocol, to make it easy to
   accept URLs, filenames, or 'naming.IStreamFactory' objects as the source
   of a "file".

   Its typical usage is just::

       factory = config.IStreamSource(data).getFactory(self)
       stream = factory.open('t')  # open for reading in text mode

   where 'data' is a string or a 'naming.IStreamFactory', and 'self' is a
   component to be used as lookup context.  The returned 'factory' is a
   'naming.IStreamFactory' that can then be '.open()'-ed for reading, or
   used in other ways as needed.

   Wherever practical, as we encounter them, we'll be changing PEAK API's
   that take filenames to also accept stream sources.

Port all of PEAK's internal and example apps from IRerunnableCGI to
IWSGIApplication, and add a new 'WSGI' command wrapper that lets you run
non-PEAK WSGI applications in PEAK's containers.  For the time being, we're
keeping IRerunnableCGI around, however, because it's a more natural
interface for the CGI/FastCGI containers to use.  See CHANGES.txt for more
details on these issues.  Also, fixed an issue with templates outputting
Unicode instead of ASCII (which is all they really support at the moment.)

Major overhaul of the traversal mechanisms in 'peak.web', including
streamlining of traversal interfaces to avoid creating extra contexts and
then stripping them back off.

Most 'peak.web' interfaces have changed significantly.  If you implemented
anything based on the older interfaces, and it still works, it's sheer
bloody luck!  In particular, note that every method in
'web.IWebTraversable' now has different inputs and/or outputs than before.
Please read the new interface docs and update your code!  The changed
interfaces offer much more flexibility and functionality than before, but
they will *require* you to update your code if you implemented any of the
affected interfaces.

'web.ContainerAsTraversable' has been removed.  It was redundant, since the
new default traversal mechanism used by 'Traversable' and 'Decorator' now
handles getitem, getattr, and views.

This completes the bulk of the traversal namespace refactoring; hopefully
these interfaces have now stabilized sufficiently.  The only major issue
remaining is permissions on views, and there is a small but nonzero chance
that resolving the issue will affect an interface somewhere.

Added Zope 3-like "namespaces" to 'peak.web'.  Path segments in a URL
may be prefixed with '"++some_id++"' in order to invoke a corresponding
namespace handler registered under '"peak.web.namespaces.some_id".
Namespace handlers must implement 'web.INamespaceHandler', and they are
supplied with the original path segment as well as the separated namespace
and name.  Also, as in Zope 3, '"@@foo"' is a shortcut for '"++view++foo"'.
Builtin namespaces at this time include 'view', 'item', 'attr', 'skin', and
'resources'.  'skin' treats the rest of its path segment as a skin name,
and sets the current skin, and 'resources' begins traversal to resources
found in the current skin.  The other namespaces are as described at:

http://www.eby-sarna.com/pipermail/peak/2004-August/001712.html

Note, however, that this doesn't include the change to default traversal
described there, and there are a couple of other issues outstanding, like
defining permissions for views, and fixing legacy uses of "@@" in the
peak.web source.  We also don't have any registration mechanisms for easy
view declarations, or for setting up local "sites" or "sub-applications".

Also, this refactoring may break existing uses of 'web.traverseAttr', which
now has a completely different meaning and signature.

Fixed several 'peak.events' bugs, as reported by Vladimir Iliev, Yaroslav
Samchuk, and Alexander Smishlajev:

* 'events.AnyOf' could hold multiple references to a single event source,
  and nesting 'AnyOf()' calls could leak references to the nested events.

* 'events.subscribe()' had a potential race condition wherein a callback
  could be invoked after its weak reference was garbage collected, leading
  to bizarre error messages about 'self' being 'None'.

* 'select()' could be called on select event objects even if there were
  no current subscribers to the event, potentially leading to calling
  'select()' on a closed socket.

* Non-default signal handlers were remaining installed even when there
  were no current subscribers to the applicable event, as long as a
  reference to the event object existed.

As a result of these changes, certain I/O event types (esp. signals and
stream readable/writeable events) are now longer-lived.  For example,
signal event objects are now immortal, and the read/write event for a
particular 'fileno()' will be reused for as long as its supplying
'Selector' or 'EventLoop' instance exists.  (Previously, weak references
were used so that these objects would be recycled when not in use.)

Consolidated 'web.ISkinService' and 'web.ILayerService' were into
'web.IInteractionPolicy', because the need to have configurable
implementations of these services is negligible.  That is, the
corresponding property namespaces ('peak.web.skins' and 'peak.web.layers')
are more than adequate as registries.

(Also, fixed some web-app problems caused by PyProtocols refactoring to
use only one-argument adapter factories.)

SQL transaction semantics have changed.  Now, issuing an SQL statement
*always* causes the connection to join the active PEAK transaction, even if
you request that the SQL be issued "outside" a transaction.  Such SQL will
be issued outside of the *database* transaction, but not outside of the
PEAK transaction.  This simplifies the overall processing model for dealing
with "untransacted" SQL such as Sybase DDL or read-only Oracle
transactions.  (In particular, the requirement that triggered this change
was to allow Oracle read-only transactions to be released at the end of
the current PEAK transaction.)  Also, got rid of the now-meaningless
'begin' command in n2, and fixed tab completion in n2 to not start a
transaction unintentionally (by making 'listObjects()' methods of
DBs supporting "outside" mode be transaction-agnostic).

The 'events.IEventSource' interface now returns a 'canceller' function
from the 'addCallback()' method, allowing you to cancel a previously-

'events.AnyOf()', which previously could accumulate unneeded callbacks on
the sources it was monitoring.  Note that if you have developed any custom
event sources with 'addCallback()' methods, you must make sure that they
return a canceller from now on.

Sybase an Oracle: two-phase commit, read-only txns, and serializability.

Changed Oracle "outside transaction" semantics to allow read
operations only, and added a property to set Oracle transactions to
"serializable" (which effectively requires two-phase commits).  Note that
the current version of DCOracle2 doesn't properly support two-phase commit
except for empty (no-op) transactions, which isn't very useful.  However,
if a later release of DCOracle2 works correctly and doesn't change its API,
the current PEAK driver should then work correctly.  In the meantime, the
cx_Oracle driver apparently *does* provide working support for two-phase
commits.  The controlling properties are of the form
'DRIVER.twoPhaseCommit' and 'DRIVER.serializable', where 'DRIVER' is the
name of the DBAPI driver module, e.g. 'Sybase.twoPhaseCommit' or
'cx_Oracle.serializable'.

Added '[Named Services]' section parser to 'peak.ini'.  This new section
type functions almost identically to '[Component Factories]', except that
the keys are property names rather than references to interfaces or other
component keys.  This should be helpful for configuring shared services
that all implement the same interface, such as SQL connection objects.

Note that to look up a named service, you simply use the appropriate
property name, as usual.  The difference is that you are guaranteed to
always use the same *instance* of the service, within a given service
area.

Also, added 'ddt.SQLChecker()', which verifies SQL results against a
test document.  'SQLChecker' makes use of the new "Named Services" feature
in order to ensure it's accessing the database you intend to test (as
opposed to say, the nearest SQL connection object).

Any application runnable with 'peak CGI' should also be runnable with
'peak serve' or 'peak launch', which makes it very useful for running
local browser-based apps or testing an application without CGI or FastCGI
available.  The modules that support this new functionality are
'peak.util.WSGIServer' (which implements a web server based on Python's
'BaseHTTPServer', that can run 'running.IRerunnableCGI' objects) and
'peak.tools.local_server' (which provides PEAK integration.)

FastCGI is being used.  Also changed 'CGICommand' to perform setup at _run
time rather than immediately upon assembly.

Lots of 'peak.events' migration:

Added 'events.ISignalSource', that returns 'events.Broadcaster' objects for
signals.  This allows you to yield to signals in an 'events.Thread', or
safely set one-time callbacks on them.

'running.ISignalManager' is now DEPRECATED; please use
'events.ISignalSource' instead.

'running.IMainLoop' has been changed to use an 'events.IReadable' for
the 'lastActivity' attribute, and the 'setExitCode' and 'childForked'
methods have been replaced with an 'exitWith()' method.

The 'peak.running.mainLoop.signalHandler' property has been replaced with
'peak.running.mainLoop.stopOnSignals', which defaults to including SIGINT,
SIGTERM, and SIGBREAK.  If you need custom signal handling, please use
the event sources provided by an 'events.ISignalSource'.

'peak.running.process.ChildProcess' has been rewritten to use
'events.ISignalSource' and an 'events.Thread' to monitor SIGCHLD.  Removed
'checkStatus()' from the 'running.IProcessProxy' interface.

Made most event sources weak-referenceable.

Changed 'events.Thread' to keep a reference to an object it's yielding on,
so that "weak" events like signals and I/O events will hang around until
they call back to the thread.

"Global" services defined by '[Component Factories]' sections now live in
the closest "service area" to the component that requests them.  A "service
area" is a parent component that implements 'config.IServiceArea', such as
a configuration root returned by 'config.makeRoot()'.  Applications loaded
by the 'peak runIni' command are now created in their own service area,
which means that settings in the .ini file being run will apply to services
the application uses.  (Because the application will have its own,
application-specific service instances, and they will use the configuration
loaded into the service area.)

First pass of 'logs' framework refactoring.  Highlights include:

 * Lots of new unit tests for logging.

 * Logs are now accessed via a 'logs.ILoggingService' instance.  The
   'logger:' URL scheme automatically accesses the nearest such service.
   For backward compatibility, the old 'peak.logs' namespace is still used
   to supply the actual loggers.  This will be gradually replaced with a
   plugin-based mechanism.

 * Log events don't use a positional 'message' argument any more, and
   loggers aren't responsible for interpolating message arguments any more.
   The new signature is 'Event(parent, msg=msg, args=args, ...)'.  Loggers
   also now tell events what logger name they are, via the 'ident' keyword.

 * The logging system now uses a property namespace, 'peak.logging.levels',
   to obtain log level names and values.  The various 'logs.LEVEL'
   constants are now DEPRECATED.  Please use the 'getLevelFor()' method of
   the nearest 'logs.ILoggingService' instead.  URL schemes such as
   'logfile:' also no longer convert their level names to numbers, since
   the level names are only meaningful in the context of a logging service.

 * Support for integration with the Python 2.3/PEP 282 logging module has
   been scaled back.  There are too many globalisms and dependencies there.
   When we add plugin-based log configuration, it should be possible to use
   the logging package's handlers and formatters with the PEAK logging
   services.  At that point, you'll be able to replace 'logging.getLogger'
   and 'logging.getLevelName' with the corresponding methods of a PEAK
   logging service, if you need to force non-PEAK packages to use PEAK's
   logging.

 * 'config.Namespace()' objects now have a 'keys()' method that can be used
   when the namespace is bound to a context component.  It returns a list
   of strings that may be used as keys for that namespace.  See
   'CHANGES.txt' for an example.

Plugins have landed!

* Added 'binding.PluginKeys' and 'binding.PluginsFor'.  These are component
  keys that can be used to 'Obtain' plugins registered within a property
  namespace.  'PluginKeys' obtains a list of the plugins' configuration
  keys, while 'PluginsFor' obtains a list of the actual plugins.

* Replaced 'peak.config.registries.EigenRegistry' with
  'peak.config.registries.ImmutableConfig'.  The only use we had for
  'EigenRegistry' was to keep track of 'offerAs' settings within classes,
  and it didn't need all the extra complexity of eigenstate management.
  The new, more-specialized class is shorter, simpler, and easier to use.

MAJOR API REFACTORING for 'peak.config', to support iterating over
configuration keys, 'n2' navigability of properties, and much more.
Many APIs are now DEPRECATED or renamed; please see CHANGES.txt for
a complete description.  A few highlights:

 - 'config.lookup()' replaces 'findUtility' and 'getProperty'

 - 'config.iterValues()' replaces 'findUtilities'

 - 'config.iterKeys()' finds keys in a specific namespace

 - NEW: 'config.parentProviding()' and 'config.parentsProviding()'
   APIs to find parent components that support a protocol.

 - NEW: You can now use 'peak n2 config:' to explore the default
   property namespace.  For example 'ls -l peak.naming.schemes'
   will list all defined naming schemes.

class-lookup concepts possible.  (Note that there may be some slight
changes to the effective registration and lookup order of these and other

Logging-related interfaces have been moved into the 'peak.running.logs'
module.  So, what used to be 'running.ILogger' is now 'logs.ILogger'.

Log events now use a standard component construction signature, and the
class used for event objects is now configurable as the factory for
'logs.ILogEvent'.  (See "Component Factories" in 'peak.ini'.)

By popular demand, 'logs.ILogger' (and its default implementation) now
includes 'trace()', 'notice()', 'alert()' and 'emergency()' methods that
use the corresponding 'syslog' priority levels.  'logs.IBasicLogger' has
been added, to reflect the narrower interface provided by PEP 282, and
there is an adapter that can extend PEP 282 loggers with the other methods.

Finally, added 'logs.ILoggingService' (for future implementation), and
updated TODO to reflect short-term project priorities that take precedence
over the alpha 3 release for now.

   'peak.ini' file for docs.  "[Provide Utilities]" and
   'config.ProvideInstance()' are now DEPRECATED, so please convert ASAP.

 - 'binding.Make()' now accepts configuration keys, using them to look up a
   factory object that's then invoked to create the attribute.  This makes
   it a lot easier to define a component with its own transaction service,
   'IBasicReactor', or other normally "global" component.  It also makes it
   easier to globally specify a factory class for some interface.
   Factories are looked up under the 'config.FactoryFor(key)' configuration
   key.  (See below.)

 - Added 'config.FactoryFor(key)', a 'config.IConfigKey' implementation
   that provides a configuration namespace for factories.

   When you use 'binding.Make(ISomething)', it's roughly equivalent to::

        binding.Make(
            lambda self,d,a:
                binding.lookupComponent(
                    self, config.FactoryFor(ISomething),
                    adaptTo = binding.IRecipe
                )(self,d,a)
        )

   That is, the 'config.FactoryFor(ISomething)' is looked up and invoked.

 - Added 'config.CreateViaFactory(key)', a 'config.IRule' implementation
   that creates an implementation of 'key', by looking up
   'config.FactoryFor(key)'and invoking it.

 - Added 'config.ruleForExpr(name,expr)', that returns a 'config.IRule'
   that computes the Python expression in the string 'expr'.  This is the
   mechanism used by configuration files to create rules, factored out into
   an API call so that configuration extensions can use it, too.

The 'referencedType' of a 'model.StructuralFeature' can now be any
'binding.IComponentKey', not just a type or a string.  Types are also now
implicitly component keys, which means you can use
'binding.Obtain(SomeType)' to look up 'SomeType'.  (Right now, this is no
different than using 'SomeType' without the 'binding.Obtain()', but in
future releases this will use a "class replacement service" to allow easy
replacement of model and other collaborator classes, while implementing
AOP-like features.)

Standardized these characteristics of name and address syntax:

* '//' at the beginning of URL bodies is *mandatory* when the URL begins
 with an "authority" as described by RFC 2396.  When the URL is not
 required to contain an authority (e.g. 'peak.storage.SQL.GenericSQL_URL'),
 the '//' is *optional*, and the canonical form of the URL will not include
 it.

* Standardized names for RFC 2396 fields: 'user', 'passwd', 'host', and
 'port'.

In addition, added test cases for all name/address schemes, or documented
why no tests are needed (or possible, in the case of icb).  Also, refactor
'fd:' URL scheme to use 'model.Enumeration' types so that the URLs have
a canonical form (at least within a given platform), and can be properly
formatted as well as parsed.  Finally, added more docs to 'fdURL' class.

Description Language.  ASDL is a convenient way to describe a domain model
for an abstract syntax tree (AST), and the models generated with the new
ASDL tool can be combined with concrete syntax to create a complete parsing
solution for "mini languages", possibly including the Python language
itself.  (Future versions of the Python and Jython compilers are likely to
use AST models based on ASDL, and in the current Python CVS sandbox there's
already an ASDL model of Python's AST available.)

DEPRECATED 'peak.util.signal_stack'.  Instead, bind to a
'running.ISignalManager' and use its 'addHandler()/removeHandler()'
methods.  This has the same effect as 'pushSignals()' and 'popSignals()',
except that you do not have to remove handlers in the same order as you add
them, and *all* active handlers are invoked for a given signal that they
handle.

Added 'IBasicReactor.crash()', which forces an immediate reactor loop exit,
ignoring pending scheduled calls.  This required changing some tests,
because the precise moment of reactor termination is now different in some
scheduling scenarios.  Some changes were also made to task scheduling for
CGI programs to account for this.

The 'peak' script has now been shortened to::

   from peak.running import commands
   commands.runMain( commands.Bootstrap )

to, or to add an 'if __name__=="__main__"' clause to a module.

Added 'peak.util.mockdb', a "mock object" implementation of a DBAPI 2.0
driver module.  'mockdb' connections can be told to 'expect()' queries
and 'provide()' data to their callers, and will raise AssertionErrors when
they are used in a way that doesn't conform to your supplied expectations.
This is intended to be used for unit testing components that depend on
a database connection: you can verify that they send the right SQL, and
you can provide them with dummy data to use.  There is also a 'mockdb:' URL
and peak.storage driver, so you can easily use a mock DB connection in
place of a real one within a PEAK application, for testing purposes.  Note,
however, that 'peak.util.mockdb' is a DBAPI 2.0 driver in itself, and thus
can also be used to test DBAPI usage outside of PEAK.

use properties to configure driver-specific SQL snippets, then access them
via the connection's 'appConfig' namespace.  The namespaces are of the form
'DRIVER.appConfig', where 'DRIVER' is the name of the DBAPI module for that
connection type (e.g. 'pgdb', 'cx_Oracle', etc.).

SQL connection objects now get their type converters from a distinct
property namespace for each DBAPI driver.  For example a driver using the
'cx_Oracle' module will get its type converters from the
'cx_Oracle.sql_types' property namespace, instead of 'peak.sql_types'.  For
backward compatibility, these driver-specific namespaces are set up to
fall back to 'peak.sql_types' for their defaults.  Type converter
construction has also been improved, to eliminate conversion overhead
completely when no conversions are required for a specific query.  Also,
SQL connections now offer a method that will create a row conversion
function for a given result description and optional postprocessing
function.  This new method should now be used in place of direct access to
the 'typeMap' attribute of connection objects.

First phase of the binding API simplification, including detailed docs
for 'Descriptor' and 'Attribute'.  (Second phase will be mass
search-and-replace of the API's usage in PEAK, third will be additional
tests and docs.)

Added 'binding.Require', 'binding.Obtain', 'binding.Make', and
'binding.Delegate'.  *ALL* other binding types are now DEPRECATED, and will
go away before 0.5 beta is released.  Please see CHANGES.txt for a detailed
mapping of how to translate from the old to new API, and let me know if
anything's missing.

Note that the new 'Make' and 'Obtain' bindings also support sequences of
recipes and keys, and in those cases will produce a sequence of the results
from those recipes or keys.  Also, 'Make' will accept no-argument and
one-argument callables,  where 'Once' always required three-argument
functions.  This should make it a lot easier to write short binding
functions.

Also, note that the 'activateUponAssembly' keyword is now 'uponAssembly',
and 'isVolatile' is now 'noCache'.  (The old names will work as keyword
arguments until the alpha 4 development cycle begins.)  The
'binding.IActiveDescriptor' interface also changed as a result of this.
Last, but not least, a 'binding.IRecipe' interface was added, to support
the new 'binding.Make' type.

component key, that returns a tuple of the values returned by each
constituent component key.  This means that 'binding.bindTo()' and
'lookupComponent()' can now accept a list or tuple of component keys.  This
makes 'bindSequence()' obsolete, so 'bindSequence()' is now DEPRECATED.
'binding.bindSequence(key1,key2,...)' can now be replaced with
'binding.bindTo([key1,key,...])', and will produce the same results.

'naming.IBasicContext.lookup()' and 'naming.lookup()' now accept a 'default'
argument, similar to that used by 'lookupComponent()' and most other
lookup-like APIs in PEAK.  This change was made so that component lookups
don't need to rely on catching 'exceptions.NameNotFound' errors to tell them
when to use the default value.  This could hide 'NameNotFound' errors that
were actually from a broken component somewhere in the lookup process.  (In
general, it's probably a bad idea to have an exception that's used for both
control flow and real errors!)

Also, removed most trapping of 'NameNotFound' errors throughout PEAK,
except for those in N2, which I'll leave for Ty.  :)  Last, but not least,
cleaned up documentation of related interfaces/methods.

file that describes your project's version numbering scheme(s), formats,
and the files that need to be edited, while the 'version.dat' file contains
the current version number values.  Source for the tool, including the
configuration file schema, is in the 'peak.running.tools.version' package.
(Error handling and documentation, alas, are still minimal.)

Misc. peak.binding cleanups and DEPRECATIONS, as follows:

 - The following 'binding' forms are now deprecated, and will go away before
   0.5 beta is released:

   'bindToProperty(x,y)' -- use 'bindTo(PropertyName(x),default=y)'

   'bindToParent()' -- use 'bindTo("..")'

   'bindToSelf()'  -- use 'bindTo(".")'

   'bindToUtilities()' -- no replacement; let me know if you're using this.

 - 'naming.IName' is now derived from 'binding.IComponentKey', so names and
   addresses must now support the 'findComponent()' method.  All PEAK name
   and address types provide support for this.

 - The 'lookup()' method of 'binding.IComponentKey' is now called
   'findComponent()', to better distinguish it from 'lookup()' in
   'naming.IBasicContext', which does something very different.

 - 'binding.bindTo()' and 'binding.bindSequence()' now pre-adapt their
   arguments to 'IComponentKey', to speed lookups at runtime, and to ensure
   that errors due to an unusable parameter type occur at class creation
   time instead of waiting until lookup time.

It's now possible to declare an attribute as offering a wildcard property;
such lookups now follow the same rules as other wildcard property lookups.
The 'config.IConfigKey' interface has been changed to cleanly support
implied keys at both registration and lookup time, so you can implement
your own key types that work the way interfaces or property names do for
configuration lookups.

I also moved the 'EigenRegistry' class from 'peak.util.EigenData' to

Added "smart properties" support, w/tests.  You can now use
'naming.LinkRef' and 'naming.Reference' in .ini files and have them work,
even without using peak.naming to look up the properties.  Also, it should
be possible to create useful caching rule objects, such as we will need
for peak.web templates.

Also, fixed a typo in peak.naming.arithmetic that caused certain name
subtractions to fail.

Got rid of the 'adaptTo' requirement for retrieving objects from naming
contexts.  Note that if you have defined any URL schemes that do not also
define a naming context class, you will need to revise them.  Specifically,
you need to add a 'defaultFactory' attribute referencing the name of the
class of object that the URL should retrieve, and you need to have that
class declare that it (not its instances) provide 'naming.IObjectFactory',
and add a 'getObjectInstance()' classmethod to do the dirty work.  If your
URL scheme references a subclass of ManagedConnection, you don't need to
do the object factory stuff, however, as it's already done for you in
the ManagedConnection base.  All you need is the 'defaultFactory'
attribute.  Also, if you defined any adapter declarations for your URLs
to the target class, you should get rid of them.

Property definition rules in an .ini file can now refer to 'rulePrefix' and
'ruleSuffix' variables.  'rulePrefix' is a '.'-terminated string,
representing the name the rule was defined with.  For example, if the
rule was defined for '"foo.bar.*"', then 'rulePrefix' will be '"foo.bar."'.
The 'ruleSuffix' will be the portion of the 'propertyName' that follows
'rulePrefix'.  So, if looking up property '"foo.bar.baz"', then the
'"foo.bar.*"' rule will execute with a 'ruleSuffix' of '"baz"'.  This
should make it easier to work with hierarchical property namespaces.

'peak.web' is born; just interface sketches and a draft of 'BaseInteraction'
for now.  CGI support has been moved from 'peak.running.zpublish' into
'peak.running.commands' (for "raw" CGI/FastCGI) and 'peak.web' (for the
PEAK high-level publishing framework).  You can use 'peak CGI someName' to
adapt 'someName' to a 'running.IRerunnableCGI' and run it as a CGI/FastCGI.
This will form the basis for creating the web version of an app later;
you'll do something like::

   class MyAppAsCGI(web.CGIPublisher):
       app = binding.New(MyAppClass)

And then use 'peak CGI import:somepkg.MyAppAsCGI' to run it.  Or, if your
app wants to exec a config file, you might define your CGIPublisher
subclass as an adapter from MyAppClass to IRerunnableCGI, rather than
invoking it directly.

The naming system base classes no longer use 'attrs' as an input parameter
or return value. If you've subclassed anything from 'peak.naming.contexts',
note that your '_get()' methods should now just return the lookup value,
rather than a 'state,attrs' tuple.  For most naming contexts, this just
means you should change 'return foo, None' statements to just 'return foo'.

'peak.naming' no longer automatically converts all addresses to the
addressed objects.  You must specifically request the interface you want
by adapting the retrieved object to that interface.  This can be done by
supplying an 'adaptTo=ISomething' keyword argument to the attribute binding
definition or your 'lookupComponent()' call.

The naming system no longer has 'objectFactories' and 'stateFactories';
these have been replaced with adaptation.  Writable naming contexts must
have a 'serializationProtocol' attribute specifying what interface an object
should be adapted to before attempting to store it in that context.

The naming system no longer processes the 'creationName' keyword argument;
this is now considered the sole responsibility of 'peak.binding'.  The
'IComponent.lookupComponent()' method still accepts the keyword argument,
and attribute bindings still handle the creation name transparently.  It is
just not available via naming system APIs, and naming contexts no longer
have to deal with it.

Also, removed 'naming.ParsedURL'; it was deprecated as of 0.5 alpha 2.

(Note: 'smtp:' URLs are currently broken, in that we don't have an
interface to adapt them to for retrieval, and I didn't want to create
an SMTP naming context, since what we want to do with SMTP is still up in
the air.)

All 'peak.binding' APIs now only accept positional parameters for items
unique to that API.  Items common to multiple APIs (such as 'offerAs',
'doc', 'attrName', etc.) should now be supplied as keyword arguments.

Bindings also now automatically "suggest" the containing object as a parent
component for the contained object, whenever a value is assigned to them or
computed.  If a non-None 'adaptTo' is set on the binding, the value assigned
or computed will be adapted to the specified protocol before the parent
component is suggested.  'binding.New()' no longer relies on the
'IComponentFactory' interface, but instead uses the new adapt/suggest
mechanisms.

Previously, parent components were only "suggested" when a binding was set
via component constructor keyword arguments.  Now, this is done at any time
bindings are set, but *not* for non-binding keyword arguments.  In other
words, ordinary attributes of a component do not receive "suggested parent"
notices, even when set via constructor keyword arguments.  If you want an
attribute to do this, you must define the attribute with the binding API;
e.g. via 'requireBinding()' or 'binding.Constant()'.

argument of 'binding.Constant()'.)  The 'registerProvider()' method of
'config.IConfigurable()' also now accepts only a single configuration key,

Added a ZConfig schema for 'running.commands.EventDriven' applications,
a ZConfig component definition for adaptive tasks, and a running shortcut
called 'EventDriven'.  It should now be possible to do this::

     #!/usr/bin/env peak EventDriven

at the top of a ZConfig file formatted according to the new schema, and
have it run.  Unfortunately, so far the only type of task that can be
included is 'running.daemons.AdaptiveTask', which doesn't actually *do*
anything.  So, right now doing this is equivalent to creating an over-
engineered 'sleep' command.  ;)

Also, fixed a problem in ZConfig 'schema.dtd'; I used 'PCDATA' where I
should've used 'CDATA', and I fixed various problems with the
'fromZConfig()' component constructor.  It's kind of annoying that ZConfig
defaults unspecified items to 'None', even if you said they weren't
required and had no default. :(  I'll see if I can do something about this
later; for now I just delete 'None' values from the data.

we have some meaningful schemas and configurations to test with.  There

a 'peak ZConfig' option as well.  See 'CHANGES.txt' for details on the new
features.  Also, fixed up some issues with the 'fromZConfig()' component
constructor.  All we need now are some useful base schemas for daemons,

Began the move of 'peak.interface' to a separate 'protocols' package for
ease of distribution independently of PEAK.  Also, removed caching of
success/failed adapter lookups, because there was no way for them to be
cleared when declarations were made for base classes of a class whose
lookup was cached.  (To do caching, I'll have to add a separate cache.)

In the next pass, I'll add the new declaration API that Ty and I designed,
and then change PEAK to use it, factoring out the interim API, and changing
the few remaining introspections in PEAK to work via adapation.  Then, it's
off to documentation, unit tests, and packaging for the 'protocols'
package.

And so we bid a fond farewell to introspection as well.  'isImplementedBy'
is now a thing of the past.  Refactored anything that used it, to now
use adapt(), which has now opened up a lot of extension possibilities in
places that were previously not extensible without modifying PEAK core
code.  See below.  Also, the interface module has been refactored to support
'classProvides()' in a clean and kludge-free fashion, along with support for
faster adaptation of old and new-style classes (by caching lookups, and by
safely adding '__conform__' methods to classic classes), and the ability for
classes to manage their own "implements" information.  The core interface
code is now quite elegant in the way it uses its own adaptation system as
the basis for implementing adaptation.  :)

'binding.Acquire()' now accepts a 'default' value argument, and
'binding.New()' no longer accepts the 'bindToOwner' flag.

There is a new 'binding.IComponentKey' interface that is used to implement
'IComponent.lookupComponent()'.  Now you can implement this interface,
or create an adapter for it, in order to make an object usable as an
argument to 'binding.lookupComponent()' - and therefore usable as a key
for 'binding.bindTo()' or 'binding.bindToSequence()'.  Not that it's
necessarily very useful to do so; you're probably better off simply
creating a naming scheme.  But it might be useful for lookups done
in the context of classes, since naming schemes aren't usable there.
(It was actually added in order to factor out all the type testing that
'lookupComponent' used to do, so it doesn't matter if it's useful for
much else.)

PEAK has been refactored to avoid the use of 'isImplementedBy()' and
similar introspection, in favor of 'adapt()'.  As a result, some
'peak.naming' interfaces have changed.  This should not affect you
if you are only subclassing PEAK-provided naming components and not
implementing these interfaces "from scratch".  However, the various
'isAddress', 'isAddressClass', 'isResolver', and 'isName' APIs have
also been removed, as they were based on 'isImplementedBy()'.

The ability to use 'isImplementedBy()' with interfaces declared by PEAK is
REMOVED.  You can still use 'isImplementedBy()' with Zope interfaces, of
course, but we recommend you switch to 'adapt()', which will work with both
PEAK and Zope interfaces.

Added transitive adaptation: declaring an adapter "AB" from A to B, and
"BC" from B to C, automatically implies adaptation from A to C via
BC(AB()).  Used it to simplify the mechanism for adapting an IExecutable
to an ICmdLineAppFactory.  Refactored some of the interface package's
initial kludges to cleaner mechanisms based on adaptation.

Learned some interesting things along the way...  Classic classes don't
have __mro__, which made adapt() break on them.  The technique I was using
in the hopes of suppressing unwanted TypeErrors suppressed wanted ones, and
meanwhile there weren't any unwanted ones in PEAK.  Finally, Python 2.2
doesn't support 'super()' access to properties, and metamethods are
properties, so you have to use my new 'supermeta' to work around this when
you need to call a super() metamethod.  This is supposed to be fixed in
Python 2.3, but not backported 2.2 because Guido considers it a "feature".
Ah well.

ease of migration while I was switching all of PEAK's URL classes over to
the new parsing framework.  Since use of regular expressions for URL syntax
is now deprecated (so that URLs can be formattable as well as parseable),
there's no reason to keep this in URL.Base.

Added the ability for other name types (composite and compound) to be used
as structural feature types (e.g. for URL fields), and for compound name
types to generate a corresponding composite name type.  Changed LDAP urls
to use this ability, which means the LDAP 'basedn' field is now always

Refactoring to support "canonical formatting" of URLs.  This required
creating a sizeable parsing/formatting framework.  :(  On the brigher side,
the framework is highly powerful and expressive.  Potentially it could be
pulled out as a 'peak.model' parsing framework, to be reused for other
parse/format applications on model elements that have a single canonical
string syntax.  It would probably need to be reviewed for Unicode
compatibility, however.

Anyway, now printing a parsed URL object should give you back a canonical
form of that URL; equivalent URLs (apart from case-sensitivity issues)
should produce identical canonical forms.  Passing keyword arguments to
a URL constructor should also allow you to selectively override the URL
body content, making it easy to produce new versions of a URL with an
altered field.

Repoint 'ParsedURL' -> 'URL.Base'; this will let existing 'ParsedURL'
subclasses continue to work for a while, until 'ParsedURL' is removed in
alpha 3.

Began work on replacing 'naming.ParsedURL' with a structure type using
'peak.model'.  See 'CHANGES.txt' for a summary of how your ParsedURL
subclasses must be changed.  There is a further refactoring coming,
however, to support simpler parsing mechanisms for complex URL syntaxes,
and to support URLs generating a "canonical form" body part.  This will
be important for robust comparison of URLs, path manipulation, etc.

Finally got rid of 'x.__class__.foo(x,...)' hacks!  Now, if a metaclass
needs to have a method that one of its instances might also have as an
instance method, you can wrap it with 'binding.metamethod(foo)'.  This
is nice and clean because it doesn't force every caller of the 'foo'
method to try and guess whether it's working with a class or an instance.
Even nicer, this solution requires no special work by the person writing
these methods, unless the method is going into a metaclass, and even then
they need only wrap it with 'metamethod'.

Last, but not least, this cleans up some of our __class__ usage so that
we'll be able to work correctly with 'zope.security'.  As far as I know,
the 'x.__class__.foo(x,..)' trick wouldn't have worked consistently when
'x' was a proxied object, whereas a normal call to 'foo' would properly
pass through the proxy barrier as long as the caller had permission to
access 'foo'.

(Note: at the moment 'foo' translates to the 'getParentComponent',
'_getConfigData', 'getComponentName', and 'notifyUponAssembly' methods.)

Made 'NOT_GIVEN' and 'NOT_FOUND' recognizable by humans (they 'repr'

Added 'TWX' package for extensions; added 'TWX.Diagrams.GraphViz'
diagramming utility module.  Very hacky and first-draft, with no unit
tests, but I've manually verified most of the functionality so far.

Added support for pickling instances of nested classes; this required
changing all uses of '__name__' which needed an unqualified class name.
Notably, one should use 'feature.attrName' instead of 'feature.__name__'
in verb definitions.

SEF.DynamicBinding is now SEF.AutoCreated, and all AutoCreatable
classes like SEF.App and SEF.Service must now have an '__init__' method
that accepts their SEF parent component.  This lets such objects have
access to the SEF hierarchy during initialization.  (Note that this
means any '__init__' methods of such classes must be revised to take
this into consideration.  See TW.Database.DataModel.Database for an
example of such a revision.)

Also, I dropped the unused SEF.StaticBinding class.

Added warnings for detectable module-level modifications of mutables
in modules which are used for inheritances or advice.  Added an API
function, 'configure(object, attr1=val, attr2=val,...)' to safely
set attributes of mutables that might have been defined in a derived
module.  Also, misc. updates to TODO.

* Added basic Specialist implementation to 'TW.SEF.Basic', and reverted
  naming from 'TypeService' and 'ITypeService' to 'Specialist' and
  'ISpecialist'.  Updated 'TW.SEF.Interfaces' to reflect "self"-less
  convention for documenting methods.

Many changes in preparation for 0.2 final, including:

 * Added 'SEF.bindToParent()' and 'SEF.bindToNames()' specifiers to allow
   more flexible component parameter bindings.

 * Fixed the base class "rebind by name" bugs in module inheritance, and
   updated the documentation to more clearly reflect what it is that
   metaclass generation and module inheritance does and does not do.  Added
   test cases to prevent regression of the rebind-by-name problem.

 * The 'setup.py' script features a new command, 'happy', which can be used
   to generate the API reference docs, and this command runs as part of the
   'sdist' command to build source distributions.

 * The API reference docs in the source distribution has been moved from
   the 'doc' directory to 'docs/html/reference'.

 * Added 'CHANGES.txt' file.
