to PyCode_New() argument list. Move MAXBLOCKS constant to conpile.h.
Added accurate calculation of the actual stack size needed by the
generated code.
Also commented out all fprintf statements (except for a new one to
diagnose stack underflow, and one in #ifdef'ed out code), and added
some new TO DO suggestions (now that the stacksize is taken of the TO
DO list).
The raise logic has one additional feature: if you raise <class>,
<value> where <value> is not an instance, it will construct an
instance using <value> as argument. If <value> is None, <class> is
instantiated without arguments. If <value> is a tuple, it is used as
the argument list.
This feature is intended to make it easier to upgrade code from using
string exceptions to using class exceptions; without this feature,
you'd have to change every raise statement from ``raise X'' to ``raise
X()'' and from ``raise X, y'' to ``raise X(y)''. The latter is still
the recommended form (because it has no ambiguities about the number
of arguments), but this change makes the transition less painful.
be Ellipsis!).
Bumped the API version because a linker-visible symbol is affected.
Old C code will still compile -- there's a b/w compat macro.
Similarly, old Python code will still run, builtin exports both
Ellipses and Ellipsis.
