sys.excepthook() and sys.unraisablehook() now explicitly flush the
file (usually sys.stderr).
If file.flush() fails, sys.excepthook() silently ignores the error,
whereas sys.unraisablehook() logs the new exception.
It has been documented as deprecated and to be removed in 3.8;
From a comment on another thread – which I can't find ; leave get_coro_wrapper() for now, but always return `None`.
https://bugs.python.org/issue36933
Add a new threading.excepthook() function which handles uncaught
Thread.run() exception. It can be overridden to control how uncaught
exceptions are handled.
threading.ExceptHookArgs is not documented on purpose: it should not
be used directly.
* threading.excepthook() and threading.ExceptHookArgs.
* Add _PyErr_Display(): similar to PyErr_Display(), but accept a
'file' parameter.
* Add _thread._excepthook(): C implementation of the exception hook
calling _PyErr_Display().
* Add _thread._ExceptHookArgs: structseq type.
* Add threading._invoke_excepthook_wrapper() which handles the gory
details to ensure that everything remains alive during Python
shutdown.
* Add unit tests.
When using the "=" debug functionality of f-strings, use another Constant node (or a merged constant node) instead of adding expr_text to the FormattedValue node.
* sys.unraisablehook: add 'err_msg' field to UnraisableHookArgs.
* Use _PyErr_WriteUnraisableMsg() in _ctypes _DictRemover_call()
and gc delete_garbage().
* _PyPreConfig_InitCompatConfig() sets utf8_mode to 0.
* Change Py_UTF8Mode default value to 0.
* Fix _PyPreConfig_Copy(): copy also _config_init attrbibute.
* _PyPreConfig_AsDict() exports _config_init
* Fix _PyPreConfig_GetGlobalConfig(): use Py_UTF8Mode if it's greater
than 0, even if utf8_mode >= 0.
* Add unit tests on environment variables using Python API.
PyErr_WriteUnraisable() now creates a traceback object if there is no
current traceback. Moreover, call PyErr_NormalizeException() and
PyException_SetTraceback() to normalize the exception value. Ignore
silently any error.
* _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.
GH-13238 made extra text after a # type: ignore accepted by the parser.
This finishes the job and actually plumbs the extra text through the
parser and makes it available in the AST.
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.
