the -X command line option.
Py_Initialize(): Handle the two phase initialization of the built-in
module.
Py_Finalize(): Handle the two phase finalization of the built-in
module.
parse_syntax_error(): New function which parses syntax errors that
PyErr_Print() will catch. This correctly parses such errors
regardless of whether PyExc_SyntaxError is an old-style string
exception or new-fangled class exception.
PyErr_Print(): Many changes:
1. Normalize the exception.
2. Handle SystemExit exceptions which might be class based. Digs
the exit code out of the "code" attribute. String based
SystemExit is handled the same as before.
3. Handle SyntaxError exceptions which might be class based. Digs
the various information bits out of the instance's attributes
(see parse_syntax_error() for details). String based
SyntaxError still works too.
4. Don't write the `:' after the exception if the exception is
class based and has an empty string str() value.
(PyExc_MemoryErrorInst) raise this instead of PyExc_MemoryError. This
only happens when exception classes are enabled (e.g. when Python is
started with -X).
former rather than the latter, since PyErr_NormalizeException takes
PyObject** and I didn't want to change the interface for set_exc_info
(but I did want the changes propagated to eval_code2!).
UNPACK_LIST byte codes and added a third code path that allows
generalized sequence unpacking. Now both syntaxes:
a, b, c = seq
[a, b, c] = seq
can be used to unpack any sequence with the exact right number of
items.
unpack_sequence(): out-lined implementation of generalized sequence
unpacking. tuple and list unpacking are still inlined.
PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches().
set_exc_info(): make sure to normalize exceptions.
do_raise(): Use PyErr_NormalizeException() if type is a class.
loop_subscript(): Use PyErr_ExceptionMatches() instead of raw pointer
compare for PyExc_IndexError.
- int PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches(obj1, obj2)
Returns 1 if obj1 and obj2 are the same object, or if obj1 is an
instance of type obj2, or of a class derived from obj2
- int PyErr_ExceptionMatches(obj)
Higher level wrapper around PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches() which uses
PyErr_Occurred() as obj1. This will be the more commonly called
function.
- void PyErr_NormalizeException(typeptr, valptr, tbptr)
Normalizes exceptions, and places the normalized values in the
arguments. If type is not a class, this does nothing. If type is a
class, then it makes sure that value is an instance of the class by:
1. if instance is of the type, or a class derived from type, it does
nothing.
2. otherwise it instantiates the class, using the value as an
argument. If value is None, it uses an empty arg tuple, and if
the value is a tuple, it uses just that.
classes as their second arguments. The former takes a class as the
first argument and returns true iff first is second, or is a subclass
of second.
The latter takes any object as the first argument and returns true iff
first is an instance of the second, or any subclass of second.
Also, change all occurances of pointer compares against
PyExc_IndexError with PyErr_ExceptionMatches() calls.
ExitThread(). As discussed in c.l.p, this takes care of
initialization and finalization of thread-local storage allocated by
the C runtime system. Not sure whether non-MS compilers grok this
though (but who cares :-).
scheme based on object's types, have a simple two-phase scheme based
on object's *names*:
/* To make the execution order of destructors for global
objects a bit more predictable, we first zap all objects
whose name starts with a single underscore, before we clear
the entire dictionary. We zap them by replacing them with
None, rather than deleting them from the dictionary, to
avoid rehashing the dictionary (to some extent). */
