This commit implements a more complete replication of CPython's behaviour
for equality and inequality testing of objects. This addresses the issues
discussed in #5382 and a few other inconsistencies. Improvements over the
old code include:
- Support for returning non-boolean results from comparisons (as used by
numpy and others).
- Support for non-reflexive equality tests.
- Preferential use of __ne__ methods and MP_BINARY_OP_NOT_EQUAL binary
operators for inequality tests, when available.
- Fallback to op2 == op1 or op2 != op1 when op1 does not implement the
(in)equality operators.
The scheme here makes use of a new flag, MP_TYPE_FLAG_NEEDS_FULL_EQ_TEST,
in the flags word of mp_obj_type_t to indicate if various shortcuts can or
cannot be used when performing equality and inequality tests. Currently
four built-in classes have the flag set: float and complex are
non-reflexive (since nan != nan) while bytearray and frozenszet instances
can equal other builtin class instances (bytes and set respectively). The
flag is also set for any new class defined by the user.
This commit also includes a more comprehensive set of tests for the
behaviour of (in)equality operators implemented in special methods.
This commit adds a generator test for throwing into a nested exception, and
one when using yield-from with a pending exception cleanup. Both these
tests currently fail on the native emitter, and are simplified versions of
native test failures from uasyncio in #5332.
Instances of the slice class are passed to __getitem__() on objects when
the user indexes them with a slice. In practice the majority of the time
(other than passing it on untouched) is to work out what the slice means in
the context of an array dimension of a particular length. Since Python 2.3
there has been a method on the slice class, indices(), that takes a
dimension length and returns the real start, stop and step, accounting for
missing or negative values in the slice spec. This commit implements such
a indices() method on the slice class.
It is configurable at compile-time via MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_SLICE_INDICES,
disabled by default, enabled on unix, stm32 and esp32 ports.
This commit also adds new tests for slice indices and for slicing unicode
strings.
Allows assigning attributes on class instances that implement their own
__setattr__. Both object.__setattr__ and super(A, b).__setattr__ will work
with this commit.
Because CPython 3.8.0 now produces different output:
- basics/parser.py: CPython does not allow '\\\n' as input.
- import/import_override: CPython imports _io.
This commit adds a sys.implementation.mpy entry when the system supports
importing .mpy files. This entry is a 16-bit integer which encodes two
bytes of information from the header of .mpy files that are supported by
the system being run: the second and third bytes, .mpy version, and flags
and native architecture. This allows determining the supported .mpy file
dynamically by code, and also for the user to find it out by inspecting
this value. It's further possible to dynamically detect if the system
supports importing .mpy files by `hasattr(sys.implementation, 'mpy')`.
Replace the is_running field with a tri-state variable to indicate
running/not-running/pending-exception.
Update tests to cover the various cases.
This allows cancellation in uasyncio even if the coroutine hasn't been
executed yet. Fixes#5242
Prior to this commit, when unwinding through an active finally the stack
was not being correctly popped/folded, which resulting in the VM crashing
for complicated unwinding of nested finallys.
This should be fixed with this commit, and more tests for return/break/
continue within a finally have been added to exercise this.
