* When an inlined operation on two small ints causes overflow, don'tGuido van Rossum2001-08-231-32/+24
| | | | | raise the exception here -- call the generic function (which may convert the arguments to long and try again).
* Fix SF bug #443600:Guido van Rossum2001-08-181-15/+46
| | | | | | | | Change to get/set/del slice operations so that if the object doesn't support slicing, *or* if either of the slice arguments is not an int or long, we construct a slice object and call the get/set/del item operation instead. This makes it possible to design classes that support slice arguments of non-integral types.
* ceval, PyEval_MergeCompilerFlags: wasn't merging in theTim Peters2001-08-171-6/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | CO_FUTURE_DIVISION flag. Redid this to use Jeremy's PyCF_MASK #define instead, so we dont have to remember to fiddle individual feature names here again. pythonrun.h: Also #define a PyCF_MASK_OBSOLETE mask. This isn't used yet, but will be as part of the PEP 264 implementation (compile() mustn't raise an error just because old code uses a flag name that's become obsolete; a warning may be appropriate, but not an error; so compile() has to know about obsolete flags too, but nobody is going to remember to update compile() with individual obsolete flag names across releases either -- i.e., this is the flip side of PyEval_MergeCompilerFlags's oversight).

* Remove much dead code from ceval.cJeremy Hylton2001-08-121-220/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The descr changes moved the dispatch for calling objects from call_object() in ceval.c to PyObject_Call() in abstract.c. call_object() and the many functions it used in ceval.c were no longer used, but were not removed. Rename meth_call() as PyCFunction_Call() so that it can be called by the CALL_FUNCTION opcode in ceval.c. Also, fix error message that referred to PyEval_EvalCodeEx() by its old name eval_code2(). (I'll probably refer to it by its old name, too.)
* Refactor future feature handlingJeremy Hylton2001-08-101-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Replace uses of PyCF_xxx with CO_xxx. Replace individual feature slots in PyFutureFeatures with single bitmask ff_features. When flags must be transfered among the three parts of the interpreter that care about them -- the pythonrun layer, the compiler, and the future feature parser -- can simply or (|) the definitions.
* Implement PEP 238 in its (almost) full glory.Guido van Rossum2001-08-081-0/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces: - A new operator // that means floor division (the kind of division where 1/2 is 0). - The "future division" statement ("from __future__ import division) which changes the meaning of the / operator to implement "true division" (where 1/2 is 0.5). - New overloadable operators __truediv__ and __floordiv__. - New slots in the PyNumberMethods struct for true and floor division, new abstract APIs for them, new opcodes, and so on. I emphasize that without the future division statement, the semantics of / will remain unchanged until Python 3.0. Not yet implemented are warnings (default off) when / is used with int or long arguments. This has been on display since 7/31 as SF patch #443474. Flames to /dev/null.

* Part way to allowing "from __future__ import generators" to communicateTim Peters2001-07-161-13/+24
| | | | | | | | | | that info to code dynamically compiled *by* code compiled with generators enabled. Doesn't yet work because there's still no way to tell the parser that "yield" is OK (unlike nested_scopes, the parser has its fingers in this too). Replaced PyEval_GetNestedScopes by a more-general PyEval_MergeCompilerFlags. Perhaps I should not have? I doubted it was *intended* to be part of the public API, so just did.
* GC for generator objects.Neil Schemenauer2001-07-121-4/+12

* This change adjusts the profiling/tracing support so that the commonFred Drake2001-07-031-47/+65
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | path (with no profile/trace function) through eval_code2() and eval_frame() avoids several checks. In the common cases of calls, returns, and exception propogation, eval_code2() and eval_frame() used to test two values in the thread-state: the profiling function and the tracing function. With this change, a flag is set in the thread-state if either of these is active, allowing a single check to suffice when both are NULL. This also simplifies the code needed when either function is in use but is already active (to avoid profiling/tracing the profiler/tracer); the flag is set to 0 when the profile/trace code is entered, allowing the same check to suffice for "already in the tracer" for call/return/ exception events.
* Revise the interface to the profiling and tracing support for theFred Drake2001-06-271-134/+65
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Python interpreter. This change adds two new C-level APIs: PyEval_SetProfile() and PyEval_SetTrace(). These can be used to install profile and trace functions implemented in C, which can operate at much higher speeds than Python-based functions. The overhead for calling a C-based profile function is a very small fraction of a percent of the overhead involved in calling a Python-based function. The machinery required to call a Python-based profile or trace function been moved to sysmodule.c, where sys.setprofile() and sys.setprofile() simply become users of the new interface. As a side effect, SF bug #436058 is fixed; there is no longer a _PyTrace_Init() function to declare.
* gen_getattr: make the gi_running and gi_frame members discoverable (butTim Peters2001-06-261-4/+17

* gen_iternext(): Don't assume that the current thread state's frame isTim Peters2001-06-231-2/+2

* gen_iternext(): repair subtle refcount problem.Tim Peters2001-06-201-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | NeilS, please check! This came from staring at your genbug.py, but I'm not sure it plugs all possible holes. Without this, I caught a frameobject refcount going negative, and it was also the cause (in debug build) of _Py_ForgetReference's attempt to forget an object with already- NULL _ob_prev and _ob_next pointers -- although I'm still not entirely sure how! Part of the difficulty is that frameobjects are stored on a free list that gets recycled very quickly, so if there's a stray pointer to one of them it never looks like an insane frameobject (never goes trough the free() mangling MS debug forces, etc).
* Remove unused code.Neil Schemenauer2001-06-201-9/+0

* Merging the gen-branch into the main line, at Guido's direction. Yay!Tim Peters2001-06-181-257/+419

* Instead of initializing & interning the strings passed to the profileFred Drake2001-06-161-26/+42
| | | | | | | and trace functions lazily, which incurs extra argument pushing and checks in the C overhead for profiling/tracing, create the strings semi-lazily when the Python code first registers a profile or trace function. This simplifies the trampoline into the profile/trace functions.

* call_trace(): Add an additional parameter -- pointer to a PyObject*Fred Drake2001-06-081-13/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | that should be used to cache an interned version of the event string passed to the profile/trace function. call_trace() will create interned strings and cache them in using the storage specified by this additional parameter, avoiding a lot of string object creation at runtime when using the profiling or tracing functions. All call sites are modified to pass the additional parameter, and four static PyObject* variables are allocated to cache the interned string objects. This closes SF patch #431257.
* Fix bug reported by Tim Peters on python-dev:Jeremy Hylton2001-05-291-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Keyword arguments passed to builtin functions that don't take them are ignored. >>> {}.clear(x=2) >>> instead of >>> {}.clear(x=2) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? TypeError: clear() takes no keyword arguments
* Add a second special case to the inline function call code in eval_code2().Jeremy Hylton2001-05-181-1/+7
| | | | | | If we have a PyCFunction (builtin) and it is METH_VARARGS only, load the args and dispatch to call_cfunction() directly. This provides a small speedup for perhaps the most common function calls -- builtins.

* Mondo changes to the iterator stuff, without changing how Python codeGuido van Rossum2001-04-231-27/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sees it (test_iter.py is unchanged). - Added a tp_iternext slot, which calls the iterator's next() method; this is much faster for built-in iterators over built-in types such as lists and dicts, speeding up pybench's ForLoop with about 25% compared to Python 2.1. (Now there's a good argument for iterators. ;-) - Renamed the built-in sequence iterator SeqIter, affecting the C API functions for it. (This frees up the PyIter prefix for generic iterator operations.) - Added PyIter_Check(obj), which checks that obj's type has a tp_iternext slot and that the proper feature flag is set. - Added PyIter_Next(obj) which calls the tp_iternext slot. It has a somewhat complex return condition due to the need for speed: when it returns NULL, it may not have set an exception condition, meaning the iterator is exhausted; when the exception StopIteration is set (or a derived exception class), it means the same thing; any other exception means some other error occurred.

* Change error message raised when free variable is not yet bound. ItJeremy Hylton2001-04-131-10/+16
| | | | | | | | | now raises NameError instead of UnboundLocalError, because the var in question is definitely not local. (This affects test_scope.py) Also update the recent fix by Ping using get_func_name(). Replace tests of get_func_name() return value with call to get_func_desc() to match all the other uses.
* Patch by Ping (SF bug 415879, Exception.__init__() causes segfault):Guido van Rossum2001-04-131-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Calling an unbound method on a C extension class without providing an instance can yield a segfault. Try "Exception.__init__()" or "ValueError.__init__()". This is a simple fix. The error-reporting bits in call_method mistakenly treat the misleadingly-named variable "func" as a function, when in fact it is a method. If we let get_func_name take care of the work, all is fine.
* Fix exception handling for non-PyFunction objects, SF bug 414743.Jeremy Hylton2001-04-111-16/+54
| | | | | | | | Fix based on patch #414750 by Michael Hudson. New functions get_func_name() and get_func_desc() return reasonable names and descriptions for all objects. XXX Even objects that aren't actually callable.
* Extend support for from __future__ import nested_scopesJeremy Hylton2001-03-221-2/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a module has a future statement enabling nested scopes, they are also enable for the exec statement and the functions compile() and execfile() if they occur in the module. If Python is run with the -i option, which enters interactive mode after executing a script, and the script it runs enables nested scopes, they are also enabled in interactive mode. XXX The use of -i with -c "from __future__ import nested_scopes" is not supported. What's the point? To support these changes, many function variants have been added to pythonrun.c. All the variants names end with Flags and they take an extra PyCompilerFlags * argument. It is possible that this complexity will be eliminated in a future version of the interpreter in which nested scopes are not optional.
* If a code object is compiled with nested scopes, define the CO_NESTED flag.Jeremy Hylton2001-03-221-1/+9
| | | | | Add PyEval_GetNestedScopes() which returns a non-zero value if the code for the current interpreter frame has CO_NESTED defined.
* Use PyObject_IsInstance() to check whether the first argument to anGuido van Rossum2001-03-211-13/+19
| | | | | unbound method is of the right type. Hopefully this solves SF patch #409355 (Meta-class inheritance problem); I have no easy way to test.
* Fix PyFrame_FastToLocals() and counterpart to deal with cells andJeremy Hylton2001-03-211-4/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | frees. Note there doesn't seem to be any way to test LocalsToFast(), because the instructions that trigger it are illegal in nested scopes with free variables. Fix allocation strategy for cells that are also formal parameters. Instead of emitting LOAD_FAST / STORE_DEREF pairs for each parameter, have the argument handling code in eval_code2() do the right thing. A side-effect of this change is that cell variables that are also arguments are listed at the front of co_cellvars in the order they appear in the argument list.
* Variety of small INC/DECREF patches that fix reported memory leaksJeremy Hylton2001-03-131-4/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | with free variables. Thanks to Martin v. Loewis for finding two of the problems. This fixes SF buf 405583. There is also a C API change: PyFrame_New() is reverting to its pre-2.1 signature. The change introduced by nested scopes was a mistake. XXX Is this okay between beta releases? cell_clear(), the GC helper, must decref its reference to break cycles. frame_dealloc() must dealloc all cell vars and free vars in addition to locals. eval_code2() setup code must INCREF cells it copies out of the closure. The STORE_DEREF opcode implementation must DECREF the object it passes to PyCell_Set().
* Remove trailing comma from 'why_code' enum, which was introduced by theThomas Wouters2001-02-161-1/+1

* Undo recent change that banned using import to bind a global, as perJeremy Hylton2001-02-011-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | discussion on python-dev. 'from mod import *' is still banned except at the module level. Fix value for special NOOPT entry in symtable. Initialze to 0 instead of None, so that later uses of PyInt_AS_LONG() are valid. (Bug reported by Donn Cave.) replace local REPR macros with PyObject_REPR in object.h
* SF bug #130532: newest CVS won't build on AIX.Tim Peters2001-01-311-2/+0
| | | | | Removed illegal redefinition of REPR macro; kept the one with the argument name that isn't too easy to confuse with zero <wink>.
* Remove f_closure slot of frameobject and use f_localsplus instead.Jeremy Hylton2001-01-291-4/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | This change eliminates an extra malloc/free when a frame with free variables is created. Any cell vars or free vars are stored in f_localsplus after the locals and before the stack. eval_code2() fills in the appropriate values after handling initialization of locals. To track the size the frame has an f_size member that tracks the total size of f_localsplus. It used to be implicitly f_nlocals + f_stacksize.
* PEP 227 implementationJeremy Hylton2001-01-251-12/+77
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The majority of the changes are in the compiler. The mainloop changes primarily to implement the new opcodes and to pass a function's closure to eval_code2(). Frames and functions got new slots to hold the closure. Include/compile.h Add co_freevars and co_cellvars slots to code objects. Update PyCode_New() to take freevars and cellvars as arguments Include/funcobject.h Add func_closure slot to function objects. Add GetClosure()/SetClosure() functions (and corresponding macros) for getting at the closure. Include/frameobject.h PyFrame_New() now takes a closure. Include/opcode.h Add four new opcodes: MAKE_CLOSURE, LOAD_CLOSURE, LOAD_DEREF, STORE_DEREF. Remove comment about old requirement for opcodes to fit in 7 bits. compile.c Implement changes to code objects for co_freevars and co_cellvars. Modify symbol table to use st_cur_name (string object for the name of the current scope) and st_cur_children (list of nested blocks). Also define st_nested, which might more properly be called st_cur_nested. Add several DEF_XXX flags to track def-use information for free variables. New or modified functions of note: com_make_closure(struct compiling *, PyCodeObject *) Emit LOAD_CLOSURE opcodes as needed to pass cells for free variables into nested scope. com_addop_varname(struct compiling *, int, char *) Emits opcodes for LOAD_DEREF and STORE_DEREF. get_ref_type(struct compiling *, char *name) Return NAME_CLOSURE if ref type is FREE or CELL symtable_load_symbols(struct compiling *) Decides what variables are cell or free based on def-use info. Can now raise SyntaxError if nested scopes are mixed with exec or from blah import *. make_scope_info(PyObject *, PyObject *, int, int) Helper functions for symtable scope stack. symtable_update_free_vars(struct symtable *) After a code block has been analyzed, it must check each of its children for free variables that are not defined in the block. If a variable is free in a child and not defined in the parent, then it is defined by block the enclosing the current one or it is a global. This does the right logic. symtable_add_use() is now a macro for symtable_add_def() symtable_assign(struct symtable *, node *) Use goto instead of for (;;) Fixed bug in symtable where name of keyword argument in function call was treated as assignment in the scope of the call site. Ex: def f(): g(a=2) # a was considered a local of f ceval.c eval_code2() now take one more argument, a closure. Implement LOAD_CLOSURE, LOAD_DEREF, STORE_DEREF, MAKE_CLOSURE> Also: When name error occurs for global variable, report that the name was global in the error mesage. Objects/frameobject.c Initialize f_closure to be a tuple containing space for cellvars and freevars. f_closure is NULL if neither are present. Objects/funcobject.c Add support for func_closure. Python/import.c Change the magic number. Python/marshal.c Track changes to code objects.
