* Surprising fix for SF bug 563060: module can be used as base class.Guido van Rossum2002-06-041-3/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the module constructor (module_init) to have the signature __init__(name:str, doc=None); this prevents the call from type_new() to succeed. While we're at it, prevent repeated calling of module_init for the same module from leaking the dict, changing the semantics so that __dict__ is only initialized if NULL. Also adding a unittest, test_module.py. This is an incompatibility with 2.2, if anybody was instantiating the module class before, their argument list was probably empty; so this can't be backported to 2.2.x.

* Implement the intention of SF patch 472523 (but coded differently).Guido van Rossum2002-05-311-15/+67
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the past, an object's tp_compare could return any value. In 2.2 the docs were tightened to require it to return -1, 0 or 1; and -1 for an error. We now issue a warning if the value is not in this range. When an exception is raised, we allow -1 or -2 as return value, since -2 will the recommended return value for errors in the future. (Eventually tp_compare will also be allowed to return +2, to indicate NotImplemented; but that can only be implemented once we know all extensions return a value in [-2...1]. Or perhaps it will require the type to set a flag bit.) I haven't decided yet whether to backport this to 2.2.x. The patch applies fine. But is it fair to start warning in 2.2.2 about code that worked flawlessly in 2.2.1?

| | | | | | | | | A MemoryError is now raised when the list cannot be created. There is a test, but as the comment says, it really only works for 32 bit systems. I don't know how to improve the test for other systems (ie, 64 bit or systems where the data size != addressable size, e.g. 64 bit data, but 48 bit addressable memory)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | don't understand how this function works, also beefed up the docs. The most common usage error is of this form (often spread out across gotos): if (_PyString_Resize(&s, n) < 0) { Py_DECREF(s); s = NULL; goto outtahere; } The error is that if _PyString_Resize runs out of memory, it automatically decrefs the input string object s (which also deallocates it, since its refcount must be 1 upon entry), and sets s to NULL. So if the "if" branch ever triggers, it's an error to call Py_DECREF(s): s is already NULL! A correct way to write the above is the simpler (and intended) if (_PyString_Resize(&s, n) < 0) goto outtahere; Bugfix candidate.
* SF patch 549375: Compromise PyUnicode_EncodeUTF8Tim Peters2002-04-271-108/+70
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements ideas from Marc-Andre, Martin, Guido and me on Python-Dev. "Short" Unicode strings are encoded into a "big enough" stack buffer, then exactly as much string space as they turn out to need is allocated at the end. This should have speed benefits akin to Martin's "measure once, allocate once" strategy, but without needing a distinct measuring pass. "Long" Unicode strings allocate as much heap space as they could possibly need (4 x # Unicode chars), and do a realloc at the end to return the untouched excess. Since the overallocation is likely to be substantial, this shouldn't burden the platform realloc with unusably small excess blocks. Also simplified uses of the PyString_xyz functions. Also added a release- build check that 4*size doesn't overflow a C int. Sooner or later, that's going to happen.
* - New builtin function enumerate(x), from PEP 279. Example:Guido van Rossum2002-04-261-0/+139
| | | | | enumerate("abc") is an iterator returning (0,"a"), (1,"b"), (2,"c"). The argument can be an arbitrary iterable object.
* PyNumber_CoerceEx: this took a shortcut (not doing anything) when theGuido van Rossum2002-04-261-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | left and right type were of the same type and not classic instances. This shortcut is dangerous for proxy types, because it means that coerce(Proxy(1), Proxy(2.1)) leaves Proxy(1) unchanged rather than turning it into Proxy(1.0). In an ever-so-slight change of semantics, I now only take the shortcut when the left and right types are of the same type and don't have the CHECKTYPES feature. It so happens that classic instances have this flag, so the shortcut is still skipped in this case (i.e. nothing changes for classic instances). Proxies also have this flag set (otherwise implementing numeric operations on proxies would become nightmarish) and this means that the shortcut is also skipped there, as desired. It so happens that int, long and float also have this flag set; that means that e.g. coerce(1, 1) will now invoke int_coerce(). This is fine: int_coerce() can deal with this, and I'm not worried about the performance; int_coerce() is only invoked when the user explicitly calls coerce(), which should be rarer than rare.
* Make sure that tp_free frees the int the same way as tp_dealloc would.Guido van Rossum2002-04-261-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | This fixes the problem that Barry reported on python-dev: >>> 23000 .__class__ = bool crashes in the deallocator. This was because int inherited tp_free from object, which uses the default allocator. 2.2. Bugfix candidate.

* abstract_get_bases(): Clarify exactly what the return values andBarry Warsaw2002-04-231-9/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | states can be for this function, and ensure that only AttributeErrors are masked. Any other exception raised via the equivalent of getattr(cls, '__bases__') should be propagated up. abstract_issubclass(): If abstract_get_bases() returns NULL, we must call PyErr_Occurred() to see if an exception is being propagated, and return -1 or 0 as appropriate. This is the specific fix for a problem whereby if getattr(derived, '__bases__') raised an exception, an "undetected error" would occur (under a debug build). This nasty situation was uncovered when writing a security proxy extension type for the Zope3 project, where the security proxy raised a Forbidden exception on getattr of __bases__. PyObject_IsInstance(), PyObject_IsSubclass(): After both calls to abstract_get_bases(), where we're setting the TypeError if the return value is NULL, we must first check to see if an exception occurred, and /not/ mask an existing exception. Neil Schemenauer should double check that these changes don't break his ExtensionClass examples (there aren't any test cases for those examples and abstract_get_bases() was added by him in response to problems with ExtensionClass). Neil, please add test cases if possible! I belive this is a bug fix candidate for Python 2.2.2.
* Clarify return value of PyLong_AsLongLong().Jeremy Hylton2002-04-231-1/+1
| | | | | | The function is documented to return -1 on error. If res was < 0, it returned res. It wasn't clear that the invariant was res < 0 iff res == -1.

* Py_UniversalNewlineFread(): Many changes.Tim Peters2002-04-211-37/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | + Continued looping until n bytes in the buffer have been filled, not just when n bytes have been read from the file. This repairs the bug that f.readlines() only sucked up the first 8192 bytes of the file on Windows when universal newlines was enabled and f was opened in U mode (see Python-Dev -- this was the ultimate cause of the test_inspect.py failure). + Changed prototye to take a char* buffer (void* doesn't make much sense). + Squashed size_t vs int mismatches (in particular, besides the unsigned vs signed distinction, size_t may be larger than int). + Gets out under all error conditions now (it's possible for fread() to suffer an error even if it returns a number larger than 0 -- any "short read" is an error or EOF condition). + Rearranged and simplified declarations.

* Fix SF bug #505315: Make free and cell vars show up consistently in locals().Jeremy Hylton2002-04-201-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | PyFrame_FastToLocals() and PyFrame_LocalsToFast() had a return if f_nlocals was 0. I think this was a holdover from the pre 2.1 days when regular locals were the only kind of local variables. The change makes it possible to use a free variable in eval or exec if it the variable is also used elsewhere in the same block, which is what the documentation says.

* SF bug 542984.Guido van Rossum2002-04-181-7/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | Change type_get_doc (the get function for __doc__) to look in tp_dict more often, and if it finds a descriptor in tp_dict, to call it (with a NULL instance). This means you can add a __doc__ descriptor to a new-style class that returns instance docs when called on an instance, and class docs when called on a class -- or the same docs in either case, but lazily computed. I'll also check this into the 2.2 maintenance branch.
