SF bug #438295: [Windows] __init__.py cause strange behavior
Probable fix (the bug report doesn't have enough info to say for sure).
find_init_module(): Insist on a case-sensitive match for __init__ files.
Given __INIT__.PY instead, find_init_module() thought that was fine, but
the later attempt to do find_module("__INIT__.PY") didn't and its caller
silently suppressed the resulting ImportError. Now find_init_module()
refuses to accept __INIT__.PY to begin with.
SF bug 430991: wrong co_lnotab
Armin Rigo pointed out that the way the line-# table got built didn't work
for lines generating more than 255 bytes of bytecode. Fixed as he
suggested, plus corresponding changes to pyassem.py, plus added some long
overdue docs about this subtle table to compile.c.
vgetargs1() and vgetargskeywords(): Replace uses of PyTuple_Size() and
PyTuple_GetItem() with PyTuple_GET_SIZE() and PyTuple_GET_ITEM().
The code has already done a PyTuple_Check().
Add a second special case to the inline function call code in eval_code2().
If we have a PyCFunction (builtin) and it is METH_VARARGS only, load
the args and dispatch to call_cfunction() directly. This provides a
small speedup for perhaps the most common function calls -- builtins.
SF bug #417093: Case sensitive import: dir and .py file w/ same name
Directory containing
Spam.py
spam/__init__.py
Then "import Spam" caused a SystemError, because code checking for
the existence of "Spam/__init__.py" finds it on a case-insensitive
filesystem, but then bails because the directory it finds it in
doesn't match case, and then old code assumed that was still an error
even though it isn't anymore. Changed the code to just continue
looking in this case (instead of calling it an error). So
import Spam
and
import spam
both work now.
Fix buglet reported on c.l.py: map(fnc, file.xreadlines()) blows up.
Took away map()'s insistence that sequences support __len__, and cleaned
up the convoluted code that made it *look* like it really cared about
__len__ (in fact the old ->len field was only *used* as a flag bit, as
the main loop only looked at its sign bit, setting the field to -1 when
IndexError got raised; renamed the field to ->saw_IndexError instead).
Fix 2.1 nested scopes crash reported by Evan Simpson
The new test case demonstrates the bug. Be more careful in
symtable_resolve_free() to add a var to cells or frees only if it
won't be added under some other rule.
XXX Add new assertion that will catch this bug.
now raises NameError instead of UnboundLocalError, because the var in
question is definitely not local. (This affects test_scope.py)
Also update the recent fix by Ping using get_func_name(). Replace
tests of get_func_name() return value with call to get_func_desc() to
match all the other uses.
Calling an unbound method on a C extension class without providing
an instance can yield a segfault. Try "Exception.__init__()" or
"ValueError.__init__()".
This is a simple fix. The error-reporting bits in call_method
mistakenly treat the misleadingly-named variable "func" as a
function, when in fact it is a method.
If we let get_func_name take care of the work, all is fine.
Fix based on patch #414750 by Michael Hudson.
New functions get_func_name() and get_func_desc() return reasonable
names and descriptions for all objects. XXX Even objects that aren't
actually callable.
pickle.py
The code implicitly assumed that all ints fit in 4 bytes, causing all
sorts of mischief (from nonsense results to corrupted pickles).
Repaired that.
marshal.c
The int marshaling code assumed that right shifts of signed longs
sign-extend. Repaired that.
Jeffery Collins pointed out that filterstring decrefs a character object
before it's done using it. This works by accident today because another
module always happens to have an active reference too at the time. The
accident doesn't work after his Pippy modifications, and since it *is*
an accident even in the mainline Python, it should work by design there too.
The patch accomplishes that.
but apparently he had to go to school, so I am checking it in for him.
This makes PyRun_HandleSystemExit() a static instead, called
handle_system_exit(), and let it use the current exception rather than
passing in an exception. This slightly simplifies the code.
