* - pythunrun.c, Py_Finalize(): move the call to _Py_PrintReferences()Guido van Rossum2003-04-151-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | even farther down, to just before the call to _PyObject_DebugMallocStats(). This required the following changes: - pystate.c, PyThreadState_GetDict(): changed not to raise an exception or issue a fatal error when no current thread state is available, but simply return NULL without raising an exception (ever). - object.c, Py_ReprEnter(): when PyThreadState_GetDict() returns NULL, don't raise an exception but return 0. This means that when printing a container that's recursive, printing will go on and on and on. But that shouldn't happen in the case we care about (see first bullet). - Updated Misc/NEWS and Doc/api/init.tex to reflect changes to PyThreadState_GetDict() definition.

* Enhance issubclass() and PyObject_IsSubclass() so that a tuple isWalter Dörwald2002-12-121-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | supported as the second argument. This has the same meaning as for isinstance(), i.e. issubclass(X, (A, B)) is equivalent to issubclass(X, A) or issubclass(X, B). Compared to isinstance(), this patch does not search the tuple recursively for classes, i.e. any entry in the tuple that is not a class, will result in a TypeError. This closes SF patch #649608.
