For now, we'll rely on the fact that the config structures aren't covered by the stable ABI.
We may revisit this in the future if we further explore the idea of offering a stable embedding API.
(cherry picked from commit bdace21b76)
Add a new struct_size field to PyPreConfig and PyConfig structures to
allow to modify these structures in the future without breaking the
backward compatibility.
* Replace private _config_version field with public struct_size field
in PyPreConfig and PyConfig.
* Public PyPreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig() and
PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig()
return type becomes PyStatus, instead of void.
* Internal _PyConfig_InitCompatConfig(),
_PyPreConfig_InitCompatConfig(), _PyPreConfig_InitFromConfig(),
_PyPreConfig_InitFromPreConfig() return type becomes PyStatus,
instead of void.
* Remove _Py_CONFIG_VERSION
* Update the Initialization Configuration documentation.
* Py_InitializeFromConfig() now writes PyConfig path configuration to
the global path configuration (_Py_path_config).
* Add test_embed.test_get_pathconfig().
* Fix typo in _PyWideStringList_Join().
The DLL path is not computed from any user configuration and cannot
be configured by PyConfig. Instead, add a new _Py_dll_path global variable.
Remove _PyConfig_SetPathConfig(): replaced with _PyPathConfig_Init().
Py_Initialize() now longer sets the "global path configuration",
but only initialize _Py_dll_path.
Add _PyRuntimeState.preinitializing field: set to 1 while
Py_PreInitialize() is running.
_PyRuntimeState: rename also pre_initialized field to preinitialized.
* Use the 'p' format unit instead of manually called PyObject_IsTrue().
* Pass boolean value instead 0/1 integers to functions that needs boolean.
* Convert some arguments to boolean only once.
* Rename PyImport_Cleanup() to _PyImport_Cleanup() and move it to the
internal C API. Add 'tstate' parameters.
* Remove documentation of _PyImport_Init(), PyImport_Cleanup(),
_PyImport_Fini(). All three were documented as "For internal use
only.".
* Add 'tstate' parameter to many internal import.c functions.
* _PyImportZip_Init() now gets 'tstate' parameter rather than
'interp'.
* Add 'interp' parameter to _PyState_ClearModules() and rename it
to _PyInterpreterState_ClearModules().
* Move private _PyImport_FindBuiltin() to the internal C API; add
'tstate' parameter to it.
* Remove private _PyImport_AddModuleObject() from the C API:
use public PyImport_AddModuleObject() instead.
* Remove private _PyImport_FindExtensionObjectEx() from the C API:
use private _PyImport_FindExtensionObject() instead.
* Replace global var Py_VerboseFlag with interp->config.verbose.
* Add _PyErr_NoMemory(tstate) function.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyEval_SetCoroutineOriginTrackingDepth()
and move the function to the internal API.
* Replace _PySys_InitMain(runtime, interp)
with _PySys_InitMain(runtime, tstate).
* _PyPreConfig_GetGlobalConfig() and _PyCoreConfig_GetGlobalConfig()
now do nothing if the configuration was not initialized with
_PyPreConfig_InitCompatConfig() and _PyCoreConfig_InitCompatConfig()
* Remove utf8_mode=-2 special case: use utf8_mode=-1 instead.
* Fix _PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig():
* isolated = 0 instead of -1
* use_environment = 1 instead of -1
* Rename _PyConfig_INIT to _PyConfig_INIT_COMPAT
* Rename _PyPreConfig_Init() to _PyPreConfig_InitCompatConfig()
* Rename _PyCoreConfig_Init() to _PyCoreConfig_InitCompatConfig()
* PyInterpreterState_New() now uses _PyCoreConfig_InitPythonConfig()
as default configuration, but it's very quickly overriden anyway.
* _freeze_importlib.c uses _PyCoreConfig_SetString() to set
program_name.
* Cleanup preconfig_init_utf8_mode(): cmdline is always non-NULL.
Add new sys.unraisablehook() function which can be overridden to
control how "unraisable exceptions" are handled. It is called when an
exception has occurred but there is no way for Python to handle it.
For example, when a destructor raises an exception or during garbage
collection (gc.collect()).
Changes:
* Add an internal UnraisableHookArgs type used to pass arguments to
sys.unraisablehook.
* Add _PyErr_WriteUnraisableDefaultHook().
* The default hook now ignores exception on writing the traceback.
* test_sys now uses unittest.main() to automatically discover tests:
remove test_main().
* Add _PyErr_Init().
* Fix PyErr_WriteUnraisable(): hold a strong reference to sys.stderr
while using it
_PyRuntime.preconfig.coerce_c_locale can now be used to
check if the C locale has been coerced.
* Fix _Py_LegacyLocaleDetected(): don't attempt to coerce the
C locale if LC_ALL environment variable is set. Add 'warn'
parameter: emit_stderr_warning_for_legacy_locale() must not
the LC_ALL env var.
* _PyPreConfig_Write() sets coerce_c_locale to 0 if
_Py_CoerceLegacyLocale() fails.
