The public API symbols being removed are:
_PyBytes_InsertThousandsGroupingLocale, _PyBytes_InsertThousandsGrouping, _Py_InitializeFromArgs, _Py_InitializeFromWideArgs, _PyFloat_Repr, _PyFloat_Digits,
_PyFloat_DigitsInit, PyFrame_ExtendStack, _PyAIterWrapper_Type, PyNullImporter_Type, PyCmpWrapper_Type, PySortWrapper_Type, PyNoArgsFunction.
* _Py_FindEnvConfigValue() now returns a string allocated
by PyMem_RawMalloc().
* calculate_init() now decodes VPATH macro.
* Add calculate_open_pyenv() function.
* Add substring() and joinpath2() functions.
* Fix add_exe_suffix()
And a few cleanup changes.
* Py_InitializeFromConfig() now writes PyConfig path configuration to
the global path configuration (_Py_path_config).
* Add test_embed.test_get_pathconfig().
* Fix typo in _PyWideStringList_Join().
* Add test_embed.test_init_setpath_config(): test Py_SetPath()
with PyConfig.
* test_init_setpath() and test_init_setpythonhome() no longer call
Py_SetProgramName(), but use the default program name.
* _PyPathConfig: isolated, site_import and base_executable
fields are now only available on Windows.
* If executable is set explicitly in the configuration, ignore
calculated base_executable: _PyConfig_InitPathConfig() copies
executable to base_executable.
* Complete path config documentation.
The DLL path is not computed from any user configuration and cannot
be configured by PyConfig. Instead, add a new _Py_dll_path global variable.
Remove _PyConfig_SetPathConfig(): replaced with _PyPathConfig_Init().
Py_Initialize() now longer sets the "global path configuration",
but only initialize _Py_dll_path.
sys._base_executable is now always defined on all platforms, and can be overridden through configuration.
Also adds test.support.PythonSymlink to encapsulate platform-specific logic for symlinking sys.executable
Change PyAPI_FUNC(type), PyAPI_DATA(type) and PyMODINIT_FUNC macros
of pyport.h when Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE is defined.
The Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE define must be now be used to build a C
extension as a dynamic library accessing Python internals: export the
PyInit_xxx() function in DLL exports on Windows.
Changes:
* Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN and Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE now imply
Py_BUILD_CORE directy in pyport.h.
* ceval.c compilation now fails with an error if Py_BUILD_CORE is not
defined, just to ensure that Python is build with the correct
defines.
* setup.py now compiles _pickle.c with Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE define.
* setup.py compiles _json.c with Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE define, rather
than Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN define
* PCbuild/pythoncore.vcxproj: Add Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN define.
At Python initialization, the current directory is no longer
prepended to sys.path if it has been removed.
Rename _PyPathConfig_ComputeArgv0() to
_PyPathConfig_ComputeSysPath0() to avoid confusion between argv[0]
and sys.path[0].
Replace messy _Py_wstrlist_xxx() functions with a new clean
_PyWstrList structure and new _PyWstrList_xxx() functions.
Changes:
* Add _PyCoreConfig.use_module_search_paths to decide if
_PyCoreConfig.module_search_paths should be computed or not, to
support empty search path list.
* _PyWstrList_Clear() sets length to 0 and items to NULL, whereas
_Py_wstrlist_clear() only freed memory.
* _PyWstrList_Append() returns an int, whereas _Py_wstrlist_append()
returned _PyInitError.
* _PyWstrList uses Py_ssize_t for the length, instead of int.
* Replace (int, wchar_t**) with _PyWstrList in:
* _PyPreConfig
* _PyCoreConfig
* _PyPreCmdline
* _PyCmdline
* Replace "int orig_argv; wchar_t **orig_argv;"
with "_PyWstrList orig_argv".
* _PyCmdline and _PyPreCmdline now also copy wchar_argv.
* Rename _PyArgv_Decode() to _PyArgv_AsWstrList().
* PySys_SetArgvEx() now pass the fixed (argc, argv) to
_PyPathConfig_ComputeArgv0() (don't pass negative argc or NULL
argv).
* _PyOS_GetOpt() uses Py_ssize_t
* Add _PyCoreConfig_ReadFromArgv() function which parses command line
options: move code from main.c to coreconfig.c.
* Add _PyCoreConfig_Write() to write the new configuration: coerce
the LC_CTYPE locale, set Py_xxx global configuration variables,
etc.
* _PyCoreConfig_ReadFromArgv() now only changes the LC_CTYPE locale
temporarily. _PyCoreConfig_Write() becomes responsible to set the
LC_CTYPE locale.
* Add _Py_SetArgcArgv() and _Py_ClearArgcArgv() functions
* Rename many "pymain_xxx()" functions
* Add "const" to some function parameters
* Reorganize main.c to declare functions in the order in which they
are called.
* All internal header files now require Py_BUILD_CORE or
Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN to be defined.
* _json.c is now compiled with Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN to access
pycore_accu.h header.
* Add an example to Modules/Setup to show how to build _json
as a built-in module; it requires non trivial compiler options.
_testcapimodule.c must not include pycore_pathconfig.h, since it's an
internal header files.
Changes:
* Add _PyCoreConfig_AsDict() function to coreconfig.c.
* Remove pycore_pathconfig.h include from _testcapimodule.h.
* pycore_pathconfig.h now requires Py_BUILD_CORE to be defined.
* _testcapimodule.c compilation now fails if it's built with
Py_BUILD_CORE defined.
* And pycore_lifecycle.h and pycore_pathconfig.h headers to
Include/internal/
* Move Py_BUILD_CORE specific code from coreconfig.h and
pylifecycle.h to pycore_pathconfig.h and pycore_lifecycle.h
* Move _Py_wstrlist_XXX() definitions and _PyPathConfig code
from pycore_state.h to pycore_pathconfig.h
* Move "Init" and "Fini" function definitions from pylifecycle.c to
pycore_lifecycle.h.
