| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "for <var> in <testlist> may no longer be a single test followed by a comma. This solves SF bug #431886. Note that if the testlist contains more than one test, a trailing comma is still allowed, for maximum backward compatibility; but this example is not: [(x, y) for x in range(10), for y in range(10)] ^ The fix involved creating a new nonterminal 'testlist_safe' whose definition doesn't allow the trailing comma if there's only one test: testlist_safe: test [(',' test)+ [',']]

* SF patch #467455 : Enhanced environment variables, by Toby Dickenson.Guido van Rossum2001-10-121-3/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes to logic to: if env.var. set and non-empty: if env.var. is an integer: set flag to that integer if flag is zero: # [actually, <= 0 --GvR] set flag to 1 Under this patch, anyone currently using PYTHONVERBOSE=yes will get the same output as before. PYTHONVERBNOSE=2 will generate more verbosity than before. The only unusual case that the following three are still all equivalent: PYTHONVERBOSE=yespleas PYTHONVERBOSE=1 PYTHONVERBOSE=0
* Add SF patch #468347 -- mask signals for non-main pthreads, by Jason Lowe:Guido van Rossum2001-10-121-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch updates Python/thread_pthread.h to mask all signals for any thread created. This will keep all signals masked for any thread that isn't the initial thread. For Solaris and Linux, the two platforms I was able to test it on, it solves bug #465673 (pthreads need signal protection) and probably will solve bug #219772 (Interactive InterPreter+ Thread -> core dump at exit). I'd be great if this could get some testing on other platforms, especially HP-UX pre 11.00 and post 11.00, as I had to make some guesses for the DCE thread case. AIX is also a concern as I saw some mention of using sigthreadmask() as a pthread_sigmask() equivalent, but this patch doesn't use sigthreadmask(). I don't have access to AIX.

* weakref.ReferenceError becomes a built-in exception now that weak ref objectsFred Drake2001-10-051-0/+6

* Fix bug in profiler modifications detected only in debug builds.Fred Drake2001-10-041-3/+26
| | | | | | | | | The new profiler event stream includes a "return" event even when an exception is being propogated, but the machinery that called the profile hook did not save & restore the exception. In debug mode, the exception was detected during the execution of the profile callback, which did not have the proper internal flags set for the exception. Saving & restoring the exception state solves the problem.
* Remove a couple of unused local variables (bug #445960, compiler warningsGreg Ward2001-10-041-4/+2
| | | | on IRIX 6.5).
* Rationalize the events passed to the profiler (no changes for the tracer).Fred Drake2001-10-042-10/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The profiler does not need to know anything about the exception state, so we no longer call it when an exception is raised. We do, however, make sure we *always* call the profiler when we exit a frame. This ensures that timing events are more easily isolated by a profiler and finally clauses that do a lot of work don't have their time mis-allocated. When an exception is propogated out of the frame, the C callback for the profiler now receives a PyTrace_RETURN event with an arg of NULL; the Python-level profile hook function will see a 'return' event with an arg of None. This means that from Python it is impossible for the profiler to determine if the frame exited with an exception or if it returned None, but this doesn't matter for profiling. A C-based profiler could tell the difference, but this doesn't seem important. ceval.c:eval_frame(): Simplify the code in two places so that the profiler is called for every exit from a frame and not for exceptions. sysmodule.c:profile_trampoline(): Make sure we don't expose Python code to NULL; use None instead.
* SF bug [#467265] Compile errors on SuSe Linux on IBM/s390.Tim Peters2001-10-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | Unknown whether this fixes it. - stringobject.c, PyString_FromFormatV: don't assume that va_list is of a type that can be copied via an initializer. - errors.c, PyErr_Format: add a va_end() to balance the va_start().
* SF bug [#466173] unpack TypeError unclearTim Peters2001-09-301-1/+5
| | | | | | Replaced 3 instances of "iter() of non-sequence" with "iteration over non-sequence". Restored "unpack non-sequence" for stuff like "a, b = 1".
* PyErr_NormalizeException()Jeremy Hylton2001-09-261-1/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a new exception occurs while an exception instance is being created, try harder to make sure there is a traceback. If the original exception had a traceback associated with it and the new exception does not, keep the old exception. Of course, callers to PyErr_NormalizeException() must still be prepared to have tb set to NULL. XXX This isn't an ideal solution, but it's better than no traceback at all. It occurs if, for example, the exception occurs when the call to the constructor fails before any Python code is executed. Guido suggests that it there is Python code that was about to be executed -- but wasn't, say, because it was called with the wrong number of arguments -- then we should point at the first line of the code object anyway.
* Prevent a NULL pointer from being pushed onto the stack.Jeremy Hylton2001-09-261-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | It's possible for PyErr_NormalizeException() to set the traceback pointer to NULL. I'm not sure how to provoke this directly from Python, although it may be possible. The error occurs when an exception is set using PyErr_SetObject() and another exception occurs while PyErr_NormalizeException() is creating the exception instance. XXX As a result of this change, it's possible for an exception to occur but sys.last_traceback to be left undefined. Not sure if this is a problem.
* Don't swap the arguments to PyFrame_BlockSetup when recreating the recentlyThomas Wouters2001-09-241-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | popped frame-block. What an embarrassing bug! Especially for Jeremy, since he accepted the patch :-) This fixes SF bugs #463359 and #462937, and possibly other, *very* obscure bugs with very deeply nested loops that continue the loop and then break out of it or raise an exception.
* Add optional docstrings to member descriptors. For backwardsGuido van Rossum2001-09-204-213/+235
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | compatibility, this required all places where an array of "struct memberlist" structures was declared that is referenced from a type's tp_members slot to change the type of the structure to PyMemberDef; "struct memberlist" is now only used by old code that still calls PyMember_Get/Set. The code in PyObject_GenericGetAttr/SetAttr now calls the new APIs PyMember_GetOne/SetOne, which take a PyMemberDef argument. As examples, I added actual docstrings to the attributes of a few types: file, complex, instance method, super, and xxsubtype.spamlist. Also converted the symtable to new style getattr.
* Add support for restricting access based on restricted execution mode.Guido van Rossum2001-09-171-5/+16
| | | | | | Renamed the 'readonly' field to 'flags' and defined some new flag bits: READ_RESTRICTED and WRITE_RESTRICTED, as well as a shortcut RESTRICTED that means both.
* Supply code objects a new-style tp_members slot and tp_getattr impl.Jeremy Hylton2001-09-141-16/+34

* Get rid of builtin_open() entirely (the C code and docstring, not theTim Peters2001-09-131-20/+3

* Admit that we'll never add the args for a "call" event to the profileFred Drake2001-09-131-3/+0

* build_class(): one more (hopefully the last) step on the way toGuido van Rossum2001-09-121-14/+21
| | | | | | | | | backwards compatibility. When using the class of the first base as the metaclass, use its __class__ attribute in preference over its ob_type slot. This ensures that we can still use classic classes as metaclasse, as shown in the original "Metaclasses" essay. This also makes all the examples in Demo/metaclasses/ work again (maybe these should be turned into a test suite?).

* Improve threading on Solaris, according to SF patch #460269, submittedGuido van Rossum2001-09-101-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | by bbrox@bbrox.org / lionel.ulmer@free.fr. This adds a configure check and if all goes well turns on the PTHREAD_SCOPE_SYSTEM thread attribute for new threads. This should remove the need to add tiny sleeps at the start of threads to allow other threads to be scheduled.
* Fix core dump in PyArg_ParseTuple() with Unicode arguments.Jeremy Hylton2001-09-101-15/+17
| | | | | | | | | Reported by Fredrik Lundh on python-dev. The conversimple() code that handles Unicode arguments and converts them to the default encoding now calls converterr() with the original Unicode argument instead of the NULL returned by the failed encoding attempt.
* SF bug [#458941] Looks like a unary minus bug.Tim Peters2001-09-071-16/+49
| | | | | | | | | | com_factor(): when a unary minus is attached to a float or imaginary zero, don't optimize the UNARY_MINUS opcode away: the const dict can't distinguish between +0.0 and -0.0, so ended up treating both like the first one added to it. Optimizing UNARY_PLUS away isn't a problem. (BTW, I already uploaded the 2.2a3 Windows installer, and this isn't important enough to delay the release.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | of PyMapping_Keys because we know we have a real dict. Tolerate that objects may have an attr named "__dict__" that's not a dict (Py_None popped up during testing). test_descr.py, test_dir(): Test the new classic-class behavior; beef up the new-style class test similarly. test_pyclbr.py, checkModule(): dir(C) is no longer a synonym for C.__dict__.keys() when C is a classic class (looks like the same thing that burned distutils! -- should it be *made* a synoym again? Then it would be inconsistent with new-style class behavior.).
* Make dir() wordier (see the new docstring). The new behavior is a mixedTim Peters2001-09-031-53/+134
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bag. It's clearly wrong for classic classes, at heart because a classic class doesn't have a __class__ attribute, and I'm unclear on whether that's feature or bug. I'll repair this once I find out (in the meantime, dir() applied to classic classes won't find the base classes, while dir() applied to a classic-class instance *will* find the base classes but not *their* base classes). Please give the new dir() a try and see whether you love it or hate it. The new dir([]) behavior is something I could come to love. Here's something to hate: >>> class C: ... pass ... >>> c = C() >>> dir(c) ['__doc__', '__module__'] >>> The idea that an instance has a __doc__ attribute is jarring (of course it's really c.__class__.__doc__ == C.__doc__; likewise for __module__). OTOH, the code already has too many special cases, and dir(x) doesn't have a compelling or clear purpose when x isn't a module.
* Added glue routine for PyMac_BuildFSSpec, PyMac_GetFSRef and PyMac_BuildFSRef.Jack Jansen2001-09-011-0/+4
| | | | Moved the declarations to pymactoolbox.h.
* Add warning mode for classic division, almost exactly as specified inGuido van Rossum2001-08-311-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PEP 238. Changes: - add a new flag variable Py_DivisionWarningFlag, declared in pydebug.h, defined in object.c, set in main.c, and used in {int,long,float,complex}object.c. When this flag is set, the classic division operator issues a DeprecationWarning message. - add a new API PyRun_SimpleStringFlags() to match PyRun_SimpleString(). The main() function calls this so that commands run with -c can also benefit from -Dnew. - While I was at it, I changed the usage message in main() somewhat: alphabetized the options, split it in *four* parts to fit in under 512 bytes (not that I still believe this is necessary -- doc strings elsewhere are much longer), and perhaps most visibly, don't display the full list of options on each command line error. Instead, the full list is only displayed when -h is used, and otherwise a brief reminder of -h is displayed. When -h is used, write to stdout so that you can do `python -h | more'. Notes: - I don't want to use the -W option to control whether the classic division warning is issued or not, because the machinery to decide whether to display the warning or not is very expensive (it involves calling into the warnings.py module). You can use -Werror to turn the warnings into exceptions though. - The -Dnew option doesn't select future division for all of the program -- only for the __main__ module. I don't know if I'll ever change this -- it would require changes to the .pyc file magic number to do it right, and a more global notion of compiler flags. - You can usefully combine -Dwarn and -Dnew: this gives the __main__ module new division, and warns about classic division everywhere else.

| | | | | | | | | | | pyport.h: typedef a new Py_intptr_t type. DELICATE ASSUMPTION: That HAVE_UINTPTR_T implies intptr_t is available as well as uintptr_t. If that turns out not to be true, things must get uglier (C99 wants both, so I think it's an assumption we're *likely* to get away with). thread_nt.h, PyThread_start_new_thread: MS _beginthread is documented as returning unsigned long; no idea why uintptr_t was being used. Others: Always use Py_[u]intptr_t, never [u]intptr_t directly.
