(2.128) and stringobject.c (2.105), which reworks PyObject_Str() and
PyObject_Repr() so strings and instances aren't special-cased, and
print >> file, instance
works like expected in all cases.
must now initialize the extra field used by the weak-ref machinery to
NULL themselves, to avoid having to require PyObject_INIT() to check
if the type supports weak references and do it there. This causes less
work to be done for all objects (the type object does not need to be
consulted to check for the Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_WEAKREFS bit).
set a function attribute on a method (either bound or unbound). This
reverts to Python 2.0 behavior that no attributes of the method are
writable, but provides a more informative error message.
earlier coercion changes, not by rich comparisons. When a coercion
function returns 1 (meaning it cannot do it), it should not INCREF the
arguments. When no __coerce__() method was found, instance_coerce()
originally returned 0, pretending it did it. Neil changed the return
value to 1, more accurately reflecting that it didn't do anything, but
forgot to take out the two INCREF calls.
- Got rid of instance_cmp(); refactored instance_compare().
- Added instance_richcompare() which calls __lt__() etc.
Some unrelated stuff mixed in:
- Aligned comments in various large struct initializers.
- Better test to avoid recursion if __coerce__ returns self as the
first argument (this is an unrelated fix by Neil Schemenauer!).
- Style nit: don't use Py_DECREF(Py_NotImplemented); use
Py_DECREF(result) -- it just looks better. :-)
Closes SF patch #103123.
funcobject.h:
PyFunctionObject: add the func_dict slot.
funcobject.c:
PyFunction_New(): Initialize the func_dict slot to NULL.
func_getattr(): Rename to func_getattro() and change the
signature. It's more efficient to use attro methods and dig the C
string out than it is to re-convert a C string to a PyString.
Also, add support for getting the __dict__ (a.k.a. func_dict)
attribute, and for getting an arbitrary function attribute.
func_setattr(): Rename to func_setattro() and change the signature
for the same reason. Also add support for setting __dict__
(a.k.a. func_dict) and any arbitrary function attribute.
func_dealloc(): Be sure to DECREF the func_dict slot.
func_traverse(): Be sure to traverse func_dict too.
PyFunction_Type: make the necessary func_?etattro() changes.
classobject.c:
instancemethod_memberlist: Add __dict__
instancemethod_setattro(): New method to set arbitrary attributes
on methods (really the underlying im_func). Raise TypeError when
the instance is bound or when you're trying to set one of the
reserved im_* attributes.
instancemethod_getattr(): Renamed to instancemethod_getattro()
since that's what it really is. Also, added support fo getting
arbitrary attributes through the im_func.
PyMethod_Type: Do the ?etattr{,o} dance.
that Py_INCREF boosts global _Py_RefTotal when Py_REF_DEBUG is defined
but Py_TRACE_REFS isn't.
There are, IMO, way too many preprocessor gimmicks in use for refcount
debugging (at least 3 distinct true/false symbols, but not all 8 combos
are supported by the code, etc etc), and no coherent documentation of
this stuff -- 'twas too painful to track this one down.
to integer types (i.e. Py_uintptr_t, our spelling of C9X's uintptr_t).
ANSI specifies that pointer compares other than == and != to
non-related structures are undefined. This quiets an Insure
portability warning.
is no __getslice__ available. Also does the same for C extension types.
Includes rudimentary documentation (it could use a cross reference to the
section on slice objects, I couldn't figure out how to do that) and a test
suite for all Python __hooks__ I could think of, including the new
behaviour.
