Fix for Issue 1741
Minor bug where python versions 2.7.x where x < 5 do not support
unpacking from memoryview objects. Versions 2.7.5 and above will
use memoryview while 2.7 versions below 2.7.5 will use buffer
objects.
Manual testing was performed on versions 2.7.5 and 2.7.2 to
confirm both worked correctly.
Implement code generation and self-contained runtime library for Python.
The test suite verifies:
- Correctness of generated Python code by comparing output to that of
the other language ports.
- The exact bytes in the Builder buffer during many scenarios.
- Vtable deduplication correctness.
- Edge cases for table construction, via a fuzzer derived from the Go
implementation.
- All code is simultaneously valid in Python 2.6, 2.7, and 3.4.
The test suite includes benchmarks for:
- Building 'gold' data.
- Parsing 'gold' data.
- Deduplicating vtables.
All tests pass on this author's system for the following Python
implementations:
- CPython 2.6.7
- CPython 2.7.8
- CPython 3.4.2
- PyPy 2.5.0 (CPython 2.7.8 compatible)
