Victor Stinner bd475115c4 Issue #3080: Add PyModule_GetNameObject()
repr(module) uses %R to format module name and filenames, instead of '%s' and
'%U', so surrogates from undecodable bytes in a filename (PEP 383) are escaped.

  I've also updated the cygwin compiler module for VS 2005 and VS 2008. It works with VS 2005 but I'm unable to test it with VS 2008. We have to wait for a new version of cygwin.

Guido van Rossum 98297ee781 Merging the py3k-pep3137 branch back into the py3k branch.
No detailed change log; just check out the change log for the py3k-pep3137
branch.  The most obvious changes:

  - str8 renamed to bytes (PyString at the C level);
  - bytes renamed to buffer (PyBytes at the C level);
  - PyString and PyUnicode are no longer compatible.

I.e. we now have an immutable bytes type and a mutable bytes type.

The behavior of PyString was modified quite a bit, to make it more
bytes-like.  Some changes are still on the to-do list.

Guido van Rossum 00bc0e0a2d Patch #1272, by Christian Heimes and Alexandre Vassalotti.
Changes to make __file__ a proper Unicode object, using the default
filesystem encoding.
This is a bit tricky because the default filesystem encoding isn't
set by the time we import the first modules; at that point we fudge
things a bit.  This is okay since __file__ isn't really used much
except for error reporting.
Tested on OSX and Linux only so far.

Martin v. Löwis 5b222135f8 Make identifiers str (not str8) objects throughout.
This affects the parser, various object implementations,
and all places that put identifiers into C string literals.

In testing, a number of crashes occurred as code would
fail when the recursion limit was reached (such as the
Unicode interning dictionary having key/value pairs where
key is not value). To solve these, I added an overflowed
flag, which allows for 50 more recursions after the
limit was reached and the exception was raised, and
a recursion_critical flag, which indicates that recursion
absolutely must be allowed, i.e. that a certain call
must not cause a stack overflow exception.

There are still some places where both str and str8 are
accepted as identifiers; these should eventually be
removed.

Walter Dörwald 1ab8330827 Add functions PyUnicode_Append() and PyUnicode_AppendAndDel() that mirror

Change PyObject_Repr() to always return a unicode object.

Update all repr implementations to return unicode objects.

Add a function PyObject_ReprStr8() that calls PyObject_Repr() and converts
the result to an 8bit string.

Use PyObject_ReprStr8() where using PyObject_Repr() can't be done
straightforward.

2007-05-04 00:41:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 572dbf8f13 Checkpoint. Manipulated things so that string literals are always
unicode, and a few other compensating changes, e.g. str <- unicode,
chr <- unichr, and repr() of a unicode string no longer starts
with 'u'.  Lots of unit tests are broken, but some basic things
work, in particular distutils works so the extensions can be built,
and test_builtin.py works.

here (it's not a Py3K issue, just something Py3K discovers):
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-April/064051.html

Hye-Shik Chang promised to look for a fix, so no need to fix it here. The
tests that are expected to break are:

test_codecencodings_cn
test_codecencodings_hk
test_codecencodings_jp
test_codecencodings_kr
test_codecencodings_tw
test_codecs
test_multibytecodec

This merge fixes an actual test failure (test_weakref) in this branch,
though, so I believe merging is the right thing to do anyway.

Jeremy Hylton af68c874a6 Add const to several API functions that take char *.
In C++, it's an error to pass a string literal to a char* function
without a const_cast().  Rather than require every C++ extension
module to put a cast around string literals, fix the API to state the
const-ness.

I focused on parts of the API where people usually pass literals:
PyArg_ParseTuple() and friends, Py_BuildValue(), PyMethodDef, the type
slots, etc.  Predictably, there were a large set of functions that
needed to be fixed as a result of these changes.  The most pervasive
change was to make the keyword args list passed to
PyArg_ParseTupleAndKewords() to be a const char *kwlist[].

One cast was required as a result of the changes:  A type object
mallocs the memory for its tp_doc slot and later frees it.
PyTypeObject says that tp_doc is const char *; but if the type was
created by type_new(), we know it is safe to cast to char *.

Michael W. Hudson 1fd00a1b71 Make the word "module" appear in the error string for calling the
module type with silly arguments.  (The exact name can be quibbled
over, if you care).

This was partially inspired by bug #1014215 and so on, but is also
just a good idea.

Neil Schemenauer 7555294576 Remove code that tried to warn about shadowing builtin names after a
module had been compiled.  It gives too many spurious warnings.

Neil Schemenauer 4e3363e884 Warn about creating global variables by __setattr__ that shadow builtin
names.  Unfortunately, this is not bulletproof since the module
dictionary can be modified directly.

Guido van Rossum c3a787e090 Surprising fix for SF bug 563060: module can be used as base class.
Change the module constructor (module_init) to have the signature
__init__(name:str, doc=None); this prevents the call from type_new()
to succeed.  While we're at it, prevent repeated calling of
module_init for the same module from leaking the dict, changing the
semantics so that __dict__ is only initialized if NULL.

Also adding a unittest, test_module.py.

This is an incompatibility with 2.2, if anybody was instantiating the
module class before, their argument list was probably empty; so this
can't be backported to 2.2.x.

Guido van Rossum cd637aae56 Fix for SF bug #529050 - ModuleType.__new__ crash.
There were several places that assumed the md_dict field was always
set, but it needn't be.  Fixed these to be more careful.

I changed PyModule_GetDict() to initialize md_dict to a new dictionary
if it's NULL.

Bugfix candidate.

Guido van Rossum 9475a2310d Enable GC for new-style instances. This touches lots of files, since
many types were subclassable but had a xxx_dealloc function that
called PyObject_DEL(self) directly instead of deferring to
self->ob_type->tp_free(self).  It is permissible to set tp_free in the
type object directly to _PyObject_Del, for non-GC types, or to
_PyObject_GC_Del, for GC types.  Still, PyObject_DEL was a tad faster,
so I'm fearing that our pystone rating is going down again.  I'm not
sure if doing something like

void xxx_dealloc(PyObject *self)
{
	if (PyXxxCheckExact(self))
		PyObject_DEL(self);
	else
		self->ob_type->tp_free(self);
}

is any faster than always calling the else branch, so I haven't
attempted that -- however those types whose own dealloc is fancier
(int, float, unicode) do use this pattern.

Guido van Rossum 6f7993765a Add optional docstrings to member descriptors. For backwards
compatibility, this required all places where an array of "struct
memberlist" structures was declared that is referenced from a type's
tp_members slot to change the type of the structure to PyMemberDef;
"struct memberlist" is now only used by old code that still calls
PyMember_Get/Set.  The code in PyObject_GenericGetAttr/SetAttr now
calls the new APIs PyMember_GetOne/SetOne, which take a PyMemberDef
argument.

As examples, I added actual docstrings to the attributes of a few
types: file, complex, instance method, super, and xxsubtype.spamlist.

Also converted the symtable to new style getattr.
