This addition to the grammar was introduced in Python 3.6. It allows
annotating the type of a varilable, like:
x: int = 123
s: str
The implementation in this commit is quite simple and just ignores the
annotation (the int and str bits above). The reason to implement this is
to allow Python 3.6+ code that uses this feature to compile under
MicroPython without change, and for users to use type checkers.
In the future viper could use this syntax as a way to give types to
variables, which is currently done in a bit of an ad-hoc way, eg
x = int(123). And this syntax could potentially be used in the inline
assembler to define labels in an way that's easier to read.
The syntax matches CPython and the semantics are equivalent except that,
unlike CPython, MicroPython allows using := to assign to comprehension
iteration variables, because disallowing this would take a lot of code to
check for it.
The new compile-time option MICROPY_PY_ASSIGN_EXPR selects this feature and
is enabled by default, following MICROPY_PY_ASYNC_AWAIT.
Note: the uncrustify configuration is explicitly set to 'add' instead of
'force' in order not to alter the comments which use extra spaces after //
as a means of indenting text for clarity.
The decompression of error-strings is only done if the string is accessed
via printing or via er.args. Tests are added for this feature to ensure
the decompression works.
Instead of compiler-level if-logic. This is necessary to know what error
strings are included in the build at the preprocessor stage, so that string
compression can be implemented.
A 'return' statement on module/class level is not correct Python, but
nothing terribly bad happens when it's allowed. So remove the check unless
MICROPY_CPYTHON_COMPAT is on.
This is similar to MicroPython's treatment of 'import *' in functions
(except 'return' has unsurprising behavior if it's allowed).
This check follows CPython's behaviour, because 'import *' always populates
the globals with the imported names, not locals.
Since it's safe to do this (doesn't lead to a crash or undefined behaviour)
the check is only enabled for MICROPY_CPYTHON_COMPAT.
Fixes issue #5121.
This commit adds support for sys.settrace, allowing to install Python
handlers to trace execution of Python code. The interface follows CPython
as closely as possible. The feature is disabled by default and can be
enabled via MICROPY_PY_SYS_SETTRACE.
Prior to this patch the line number for a lambda would be "line 1" if the
body of the lambda contained only a simple expression (with no line number
stored in the parse node). Now the line number is always reported
correctly.
mp_compile no longer takes an emit_opt argument, rather this setting is now
provided by the global default_emit_opt variable.
Now, when -X emit=native is passed as a command-line option, the emitter
will be set for all compiled modules (included imports), not just the
top-level script.
In the future there could be a way to also set this variable from a script.
Fixes issue #4267.
Prior to this commit, building the unix port with `DEBUG=1` and
`-finstrument-functions` the compilation would fail with an error like
"control reaches end of non-void function". This change fixes this by
removing the problematic "if (0)" branches. Not all branches affect
compilation, but they are all removed for consistency.
With this change, @micropython.asm_thumb functions will work on standard
ARM processors (that are in ARM state by default), in scripts and
precompiled .mpy files.
Addresses issue #4675.
