* Improve extended slicing support in builtin types and classes. Specifically:Thomas Wouters2007-08-281-13/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Specialcase extended slices that amount to a shallow copy the same way as is done for simple slices, in the tuple, string and unicode case. - Specialcase step-1 extended slices to optimize the common case for all involved types. - For lists, allow extended slice assignment of differing lengths as long as the step is 1. (Previously, 'l[:2:1] = []' failed even though 'l[:2] = []' and 'l[:2:None] = []' do not.) - Implement extended slicing for buffer, array, structseq, mmap and UserString.UserString. - Implement slice-object support (but not non-step-1 slice assignment) for UserString.MutableString. - Add tests for all new functionality.

* Variation of patch # 1624059 to speed up checking if an object is a subclassNeal Norwitz2007-02-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | of some of the common builtin types. Use a bit in tp_flags for each common builtin type. Check the bit to determine if any instance is a subclass of these common types. The check avoids a function call and O(n) search of the base classes. The check is done in the various Py*_Check macros rather than calling PyType_IsSubtype(). All the bits are set in tp_flags when the type is declared in the Objects/*object.c files because PyType_Ready() is not called for all the types. Should PyType_Ready() be called for all types? If so and the change is made, the changes to the Objects/*object.c files can be reverted (remove setting the tp_flags). Objects/typeobject.c would also have to be modified to add conditions for Py*_CheckExact() in addition to each the PyType_IsSubtype check.

Some of them could potentially have caused "real-world" breakage. * list.pop(x): fixing overflow issues on x was messy. I just reverted to PyArg_ParseTuple("n"), which does the right thing.

* Add const to several API functions that take char *.Jeremy Hylton2005-12-101-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In C++, it's an error to pass a string literal to a char* function without a const_cast(). Rather than require every C++ extension module to put a cast around string literals, fix the API to state the const-ness. I focused on parts of the API where people usually pass literals: PyArg_ParseTuple() and friends, Py_BuildValue(), PyMethodDef, the type slots, etc. Predictably, there were a large set of functions that needed to be fixed as a result of these changes. The most pervasive change was to make the keyword args list passed to PyArg_ParseTupleAndKewords() to be a const char *kwlist[]. One cast was required as a result of the changes: A type object mallocs the memory for its tp_doc slot and later frees it. PyTypeObject says that tp_doc is const char *; but if the type was created by type_new(), we know it is safe to cast to char *.

* Checkin Tim's fix to an error discussed on python-dev.Raymond Hettinger2004-09-261-10/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Also, add a testcase. Formerly, the list_extend() code used several local variables to remember its state across iterations. Since an iteration could call arbitrary Python code, it was possible for the list state to be changed. The new code uses dynamic structure references instead of C locals. So, they are always up-to-date. After list_resize() is called, its size has been updated but the new cells are filled with NULLs. These needed to be filled before arbitrary iteration code was called; otherwise, that code could attempt to modify a list that was in a semi-invalid state. The solution was to change the ob->size field back to a value reflecting the actual number of valid cells.
* SF #1022910: Conserve memory with list.pop()Raymond Hettinger2004-09-121-8/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | The list resizing scheme only downsized when more than 16 elements were removed in a single step: del a[100:120]. As a result, the list would never shrink when popping elements off one at a time. This patch makes it shrink whenever more than half of the space is unused. Also, at Tim's suggestion, renamed _new_size to new_allocated. This makes the code easier to understand.

* list_ass_slice(): Document the obscure new intent that deleting a sliceTim Peters2004-07-311-8/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | of no more than 8 elements cannot fail. listpop(): Take advantage of that its calls to list_resize() and list_ass_slice() can't fail. This is assert'ed in a debug build now, but in an icky way. That is, you can't say: assert(some_call() >= 0); because then some_call() won't occur at all in a release build. So it has to be a big pile of #ifdefs on Py_DEBUG (yuck), or the pleasant: status = some_call(); assert(status >= 0); But in that case, compilers may whine in a release build, because status appears unused then. I'm not certain the ugly trick I used here will convince all compilers to shut up about status (status is always "used" now, as the first (ignored) clause in a comma expression).
* list_ass_slice(): The difference between "recycle" and "recycled" wasTim Peters2004-07-311-17/+10
| | | | | | | | impossible to remember, so renamed one to something obvious. Headed off potential signed-vs-unsigned compiler complaints I introduced by changing the type of a vrbl to unsigned. Removed the need for the tedious explanation about "backward pointer loops" by looping on an int instead.
* Armin asked for a list_ass_slice review in his checkin, so here's theTim Peters2004-07-311-26/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | result. list_resize(): Document the intent. Code is increasingly relying on subtle aspects of its behavior, and they deserve to be spelled out. list_ass_slice(): A bit more simplification, by giving it a common error exit and initializing more values. Be clearer in comments about what "size" means (# of elements? # of bytes?). While the number of elements in a list slice must fit in an int, there's no guarantee that the number of bytes occupied by the slice will. That malloc() and memmove() take size_t arguments is a hint about that <wink>. So changed to use size_t where appropriate. ihigh - ilow should always be >= 0, but we never asserted that. We do now. The loop decref'ing the recycled slice had a subtle insecurity: C doesn't guarantee that a pointer one slot *before* an array will compare "less than" to a pointer within the array (it does guarantee that a pointer one beyond the end of the array compares as expected). This was actually an issue in KSR's C implementation, so isn't purely theoretical. Python probably has other "go backwards" loops with a similar glitch. list_clear() is OK (it marches an integer backwards, not a pointer).
* This is a reorganization of list_ass_slice(). It should probably be reviewed,Armin Rigo2004-07-301-22/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | though I tried to be very careful. This is a slight simplification, and it adds a new feature: a small stack-allocated "recycled" array for the cases when we don't remove too many items. It allows PyList_SetSlice() to never fail if: * you are sure that the object is a list; and * you either do not remove more than 8 items, or clear the list. This makes a number of other places in the source code correct again -- there are some places that delete a single item without checking for MemoryErrors raised by PyList_SetSlice(), or that clear the whole list, and sometimes the context doesn't allow an error to be propagated.
* What if you call lst.__init__() while it is being sorted? :-)Armin Rigo2004-07-301-2/+4
| | | | The invariant checks would break.
* * Simplify and speed-up list_resize(). Relying on the newly documentedRaymond Hettinger2004-07-291-3/+7
| | | | | | | | | invariants allows the ob_item != NULL check to be replaced with an assertion. * Added assertions to list_init() which document and verify that the tp_new slot establishes the invariants. This may preclude a future bug if a custom tp_new slot is written.
* * drop the unreasonable list invariant that ob_item should never come backArmin Rigo2004-07-291-28/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | to NULL during the lifetime of the object. * listobject.c nevertheless did not conform to the other invariants, either; fixed. * listobject.c now uses list_clear() as the obvious internal way to clear a list, instead of abusing list_ass_slice() for that. It makes it easier to enforce the invariant about ob_item == NULL. * listsort() sets allocated to -1 during sort; any mutation will set it to a value >= 0, so it is a safe way to detect mutation. A negative value for allocated does not cause a problem elsewhere currently. test_sort.py has a new test for this fix. * listsort() leak: if items were added to the list during the sort, AND if these items had a __del__ that puts still more stuff into the list, then this more stuff (and the PyObject** array to hold them) were overridden at the end of listsort() and never released.

* Fix obscure breakage (relative to 2.3) in listsort: the test for listTim Peters2004-07-291-26/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | mutation during list.sort() used to rely on that listobject.c always NULL'ed ob_item when ob_size fell to 0. That's no longer true, so the test for list mutation during a sort is no longer reliable. Changed the test to rely instead on that listobject.c now never NULLs-out ob_item after (if ever) ob_item gets a non-NULL value. This new assumption is also documented now, as a required invariant in listobject.h. The new assumption allowed some real simplification to some of the hairier code in listsort(), so is a Good Thing on that count.
