and a couple of functions that were missed in the previous batches. Not
terribly tested, but very carefully scrutinized, three times.
All these were found by the little findkrc.py that I posted to python-dev,
which means there might be more lurking. Cases such as this:
long
func(a, b)
long a;
long b; /* flagword */
{
and other cases where the last ; in the argument list isn't followed by a
newline and an opening curly bracket. Regexps to catch all are welcome, of
course ;)
(1) Use PyErr_NewException("module.class", NULL, NULL) to create the
exception object.
(2) Remove all calls to Py_FatalError(); instead, return or
ignore the errors -- the import code now checks PyErr_Occurred()
after calling a module's init function, so it's no longer a
fatal error for the initialization to fail.
Also did some small cleanups, e.g. removed unnecessary test for
"already initialized" from initfpectl(), and unified
initposix()/initnt().
I haven't checked this very thoroughly, so while the changes are
pretty trivial -- beware of untested code!
Added 'p' format character for Pascal string (i.e. leading length
byte). This uses the count prefix line 's' does, except that the
count includes the length byte; i.e. '10p' takes 10 bytes packed but
has space for a length byte and 9 data bytes.
int/long types, and use the new PyLong_FromUnsignedLong() and
PyLong_AsUnsignedLong() interfaces instead.
Semantic change: the 'I' format will now always return a long int.
