Tim Peters a40c793d06 Rework the way we try to check for libm overflow, given that C99 no longer
requires that errno ever get set, and it looks like glibc is already
playing that game.  New rules:

+ Never use HUGE_VAL.  Use the new Py_HUGE_VAL instead.

+ Never believe errno.  If overflow is the only thing you're interested in,
  use the new Py_OVERFLOWED(x) macro.  If you're interested in any libm
  errors, use the new Py_SET_ERANGE_IF_OVERFLOW(x) macro, which attempts
  to set errno the way C89 said it worked.

Unfortunately, none of these are reliable, but they work on Windows and I
*expect* under glibc too.

Tim Peters 57f282a2a0 Try to recover from that glibc's ldexp apparently doesn't set errno on
overflow.  Needs testing on Linux (test_long.py and test_long_future.py
especially).

Tim Peters 7eea37e831 At Guido's suggestion, here's a new C API function, PyObject_Dir(), like
__builtin__.dir().  Moved the guts from bltinmodule.c to object.c.
2001-09-04 22:08:56 +00:00
Tim Peters a1c1b0f468 Introduce new private API function _PyLong_AsScaledDouble. Not used yet,
but will be the foundation for Good Things:
+ Speed PyLong_AsDouble.
+ Give PyLong_AsDouble the ability to detect overflow.
+ Make true division of long/long nearly as accurate as possible (no
  spurious infinities or NaNs).
+ Return non-insane results from math.log and math.log10 when passing a
  long that can't be approximated by a double better than HUGE_VAL.

Neil Schemenauer 49417e76d5 Fix the names of _PyObject_GC_TRACK and _PyObject_GC_UNTRACK when the GC is
disabled.  Obviously everyone enables the GC. :-)

Jack Jansen fabd00fa91 Added glue routine for PyMac_BuildFSSpec, PyMac_GetFSRef and PyMac_BuildFSRef.
Moved the declarations to pymactoolbox.h.

Guido van Rossum 393661d15f Add warning mode for classic division, almost exactly as specified in
PEP 238.  Changes:

- add a new flag variable Py_DivisionWarningFlag, declared in
  pydebug.h, defined in object.c, set in main.c, and used in
  {int,long,float,complex}object.c.  When this flag is set, the
  classic division operator issues a DeprecationWarning message.

- add a new API PyRun_SimpleStringFlags() to match
  PyRun_SimpleString().  The main() function calls this so that
  commands run with -c can also benefit from -Dnew.

- While I was at it, I changed the usage message in main() somewhat:
  alphabetized the options, split it in *four* parts to fit in under
  512 bytes (not that I still believe this is necessary -- doc strings
  elsewhere are much longer), and perhaps most visibly, don't display
  the full list of options on each command line error.  Instead, the
  full list is only displayed when -h is used, and otherwise a brief
  reminder of -h is displayed.  When -h is used, write to stdout so
  that you can do `python -h | more'.

Notes:

- I don't want to use the -W option to control whether the classic
  division warning is issued or not, because the machinery to decide
  whether to display the warning or not is very expensive (it involves
  calling into the warnings.py module).  You can use -Werror to turn
  the warnings into exceptions though.

- The -Dnew option doesn't select future division for all of the
  program -- only for the __main__ module.  I don't know if I'll ever
  change this -- it would require changes to the .pyc file magic
  number to do it right, and a more global notion of compiler flags.

- You can usefully combine -Dwarn and -Dnew: this gives the __main__
  module new division, and warns about classic division everywhere
  else.

Guido van Rossum 5eef77a21b Make the Py<type>_Check() macro use PyObject_TypeCheck(). 2001-08-30 03:08:07 +00:00
Neil Schemenauer 74b5ade6b8 Change the GC type flag since the API has changed. Allow types using
the old flag to still compile.  Remove the PyType_BASICSIZE and
PyType_SET_BASICSIZE macros.  Add PyObject_GC_New, PyObject_GC_NewVar,
PyObject_GC_Resize, PyObject_GC_Del, PyObject_GC_Track,

Tim Peters 79248aa1e4 SF bug [#456252] Python should never stomp on [u]intptr_t.
pyport.h:  typedef a new Py_intptr_t type.
    DELICATE ASSUMPTION:  That HAVE_UINTPTR_T implies intptr_t is
    available as well as uintptr_t.  If that turns out not to be
    true, things must get uglier (C99 wants both, so I think it's
    an assumption we're *likely* to get away with).
thread_nt.h, PyThread_start_new_thread:  MS _beginthread is documented
    as returning unsigned long; no idea why uintptr_t was being used.
Others:  Always use Py_[u]intptr_t, never [u]intptr_t directly.

Guido van Rossum c16fcdf533 Make the PyXXX_Check() macros for the numeric types inheritance-aware. 2001-08-29 15:45:32 +00:00
Barry Warsaw dadace004b PyString_FromFormat() and PyString_FromFormatV(): Largely ripped from
PyErr_Format() these new C API methods can be used instead of
    sprintf()'s into hardcoded char* buffers.  This allows us to fix
    many situation where long package, module, or class names get
    truncated in reprs.

    PyString_FromFormat() is the varargs variety.
    PyString_FromFormatV() is the va_list variety

    Original PyErr_Format() code was modified to allow %p and %ld
    expansions.

    Many reprs were converted to this, checkins coming soo.  Not
    changed: complex_repr(), float_repr(), float_print(), float_str(),
    int_repr().  There may be other candidates not yet converted.

    Closes patch #454743.

Tim Peters e2c18e90da ceval, PyEval_MergeCompilerFlags: wasn't merging in the
CO_FUTURE_DIVISION flag.  Redid this to use Jeremy's PyCF_MASK #define
instead, so we dont have to remember to fiddle individual feature names
here again.

pythonrun.h:  Also #define a PyCF_MASK_OBSOLETE mask.  This isn't used
yet, but will be as part of the PEP 264 implementation (compile() mustn't
raise an error just because old code uses a flag name that's become
obsolete; a warning may be appropriate, but not an error; so compile() has
to know about obsolete flags too, but nobody is going to remember to
update compile() with individual obsolete flag names across releases either
-- i.e., this is the flip side of PyEval_MergeCompilerFlags's oversight).

Martin v. Löwis 339d0f720e Patch #445762: Support --disable-unicode
- Do not compile unicodeobject, unicodectype, and unicodedata if Unicode is disabled
- check for Py_USING_UNICODE in all places that use Unicode functions
- disables unicode literals, and the builtin functions
- add the types.StringTypes list
- remove Unicode literals from most tests.

Fred Drake d55657bdf2 Added comments before recently added/assigned slots in the type object,
so the backward compatibility issues will be easier to understand.  I only
added comments indicating additions and assignments back to Python 2.0.
2001-08-15 18:32:33 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 910d7d46dc Remove much dead code from ceval.c
The descr changes moved the dispatch for calling objects from
call_object() in ceval.c to PyObject_Call() in abstract.c.
call_object() and the many functions it used in ceval.c were no longer
used, but were not removed.

Rename meth_call() as PyCFunction_Call() so that it can be called by
the CALL_FUNCTION opcode in ceval.c.

Also, fix error message that referred to PyEval_EvalCodeEx() by its
old name eval_code2().  (I'll probably refer to it by its old name,
too.)
2001-08-12 21:52:24 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 1abf610b15 Remove st_nested_scopes from struct symtable,
because nested scopes are always enabled.

(Accidentally checked in one small change along this path yesterday,
wreaking havoc in the Windows build.)
2001-08-11 21:51:24 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton fdd12f66bb Refactor future feature handling
Replace individual slots in PyFutureFeatures with a single bitmask
with one field per feature.  The flags for this bitmask are the same
as the flags used in the co_flags slot of a code object.

    XXX This means we waste several bits, because they are used
    for co_flags but have no meaning for future statements.  Don't
    think this is an issue.

Remove the NESTED_SCOPES_DEFAULT define and others.  Not sure what
they were for anyway.

Remove all the PyCF_xxx flags, but define PyCF_MASK in terms of the
CO_xxx flags that are relevant for this release.

Change definition of PyCompilerFlags so that cf_flags matches
co_flags.
2001-08-10 21:38:04 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 05ac6de2d5 Add PyDict_Merge(a, b, override):
PyDict_Merge(a, b, 1) is the same as PyDict_Update(a, b).
PyDict_Merge(a, b, 0) does something similar but leaves existing items
unchanged.
2001-08-10 20:28:28 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9b9c972abe Add new flags for PyType_Ready(): READY to explicitly indicate the
type is ready, and READYING to indicate that it is busy with the type.

A recursive call is a fatal error.
2001-08-10 17:37:02 +00:00
Tim Peters 772747b3f1 SF patch #438013 Remove 2-byte Py_UCS2 assumptions
Removed all instances of Py_UCS2 from the codebase, and so also (I hope)
the last remaining reliance on the platform having an integral type
with exactly 16 bits.
PyUnicode_DecodeUTF16() and PyUnicode_EncodeUTF16() now read and write
one byte at a time.

Jack Jansen 94bebc0381 Split macglue.c into two: a new mactoolboxglue.c (in ./Python)
with functionality needed for both unix-Python and MacPython and a
new smaller ./Mac/Python/macglue.c which contains MacPython stuff only.

pymactoolbox.h has moved to ./Include from ./Mac/Include and now also
contains the relevant stuff from macglue.h.

The net effect of this is that the ./Mac subdirectory is not needed
anymore for building the unix-Python core on MacOSX (it is needed
for building the extension modules).

Martin v. Löwis f9836ba4fe Put conditional S_ISDIR definition(s) into pyport.h. 2001-08-08 10:28:06 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4668b000a1 Implement PEP 238 in its (almost) full glory.
This introduces:

- A new operator // that means floor division (the kind of division
  where 1/2 is 0).

- The "future division" statement ("from __future__ import division)
  which changes the meaning of the / operator to implement "true
  division" (where 1/2 is 0.5).

- New overloadable operators __truediv__ and __floordiv__.

- New slots in the PyNumberMethods struct for true and floor division,
  new abstract APIs for them, new opcodes, and so on.

I emphasize that without the future division statement, the semantics
of / will remain unchanged until Python 3.0.

Not yet implemented are warnings (default off) when / is used with int
or long arguments.

This has been on display since 7/31 as SF patch #443474.

Flames to /dev/null.
2001-08-08 05:00:18 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 528b7eb0b0 - Rename PyType_InitDict() to PyType_Ready().
- Add an explicit call to PyType_Ready(&PyList_Type) to pythonrun.c
  (just for the heck of it, really -- we should either explicitly
  ready all types, or none).

Marc-André Lemburg 03d1b1814b Enable PyOS_snprintf() et al. during alpha phase of 2.2.0 and
add another use case to the socketmodule.
2001-07-31 18:05:33 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg b5ac6f62c7 As discussed on python-dev: this patch adds name mangling to
assure that extensions and interpreters using the Unicode APIs
were compiled using the same Unicode width.
2001-07-31 14:30:16 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg cecd9e0af3 va_list is defined in stdarg.h. 2001-07-31 14:23:52 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg e5006ebc9d This patch turns the Python API mismatch notice into a standard
Python warning which can be catched by means of the Python warning
framework.

It also adds two new APIs which hopefully make it easier for Python
to switch to buffer overflow safe [v]snprintf() APIs for error
reporting et al. The two new APIs are PyOS_snprintf() and
PyOS_vsnprintf() and work just like the standard ones in many
C libs. On platforms which have snprintf(), the native APIs are used,
on all other an emulation with snprintf() tries to do its best.
2001-07-31 13:24:44 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 3ce45389bd Add _PyUnicode_AsDefaultEncodedString to unicodeobject.h.
And remove all the extern decls in the middle of .c files.
Apparently, it was excluded from the header file because it is
intended for internal use by the interpreter.  It's still intended for
internal use and documented as such in the header file.

Tim Peters 76f373d081 Repair more now-obsolete references to config.h. 2001-07-26 21:34:59 +00:00
Martin v. Löwis 4f1cd8bdcb Patch #411138: Rename config.h to pyconfig.h. Closes bug #231774. 2001-07-26 13:41:06 +00:00

Martin v. Löwis f0473d511b Patch #412229: Add functions sys.getdlopenflags and sys.setdlopenflags.
Add dlopenflags to PyInterpreterState, and use it in dlopen calls.
2001-07-18 16:17:16 +00:00
Tim Peters fe2127d3cb Ugly. A pile of new xxxFlags() functions, to communicate to the parser
that 'yield' is a keyword.  This doesn't help test_generators at all!  I
don't know why not.  These things do work now (and didn't before this
patch):

1. "from __future__ import generators" now works in a native shell.

2. Similarly "python -i xxx.py" now has generators enabled in the
   shell if xxx.py had them enabled.

3. This program (which was my doctest proxy) works fine:

from __future__ import generators

source = """\
def f():
    yield 1
"""

exec compile(source, "", "single") in globals()
print type(f())
2001-07-16 05:37:24 +00:00
Tim Peters 5ba5866281 Part way to allowing "from __future__ import generators" to communicate
that info to code dynamically compiled *by* code compiled with generators
enabled.  Doesn't yet work because there's still no way to tell the parser
that "yield" is OK (unlike nested_scopes, the parser has its fingers in
this too).
Replaced PyEval_GetNestedScopes by a more-general
PyEval_MergeCompilerFlags.  Perhaps I should not have?  I doubted it was
*intended* to be part of the public API, so just did.
2001-07-16 02:29:45 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b09f7ed623 Preliminary support for "from __future__ import generators" to enable
the yield statement.  I figure we have to have this in before I can
release 2.2a1 on Wednesday.

Note: test_generators is currently broken, I'm counting on Tim to fix
this.
2001-07-15 21:08:29 +00:00
Tim Peters 0d5dd68692 Python.h: Don't attempt to redefine NDEBUG if it's already defined.
Others:  Remove redundant includes of assert.h.
2001-07-15 18:38:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b2c075bec4 Define NDEBUG when Py_DEBUG undefined, to disable the assert macro. 2001-07-15 16:58:05 +00:00
Guido van Rossum aa31429854 Enable nested scopes by default.
Although this is a one-character change, more work needs to be done:
the compiler can get rid of a lot of non-nested-scopes code, the
documentation needs to be updated, the future statement can be
simplified, etc.

But this change enables the nested scope semantics everywhere, and
that's the important part -- we can now test code for compatibility
with nested scopes by default.
2001-07-12 12:50:23 +00:00
Thomas Wouters efafcea280 Re-add 'advanced' xrange features, adding DeprecationWarnings as discussed
on python-dev. The features will still vanish, however, just one release
later.
2001-07-09 12:30:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3f56166b1a Rip out the fancy behaviors of xrange that nobody uses: repeat, slice,
contains, tolist(), and the start/stop/step attributes.  This includes
removing the 4th ('repeat') argument to PyRange_New().
2001-07-05 13:27:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 9e3ad78444 This change adjusts the profiling/tracing support so that the common
path (with no profile/trace function) through eval_code2() and
eval_frame() avoids several checks.

In the common cases of calls, returns, and exception propogation,
eval_code2() and eval_frame() used to test two values in the
thread-state: the profiling function and the tracing function.  With
this change, a flag is set in the thread-state if either of these is
active, allowing a single check to suffice when both are NULL.  This
also simplifies the code needed when either function is in use but is
already active (to avoid profiling/tracing the profiler/tracer); the
flag is set to 0 when the profile/trace code is entered, allowing the
same check to suffice for "already in the tracer" for call/return/
exception events.
2001-07-03 23:39:52 +00:00
Fredrik Lundh 72b068566a removed "register const" from scalar arguments to the unicode
predicates
2001-06-27 22:08:26 +00:00
Fred Drake 55fb6e0371 Revise the interface to the profiling and tracing support for the
Python interpreter.

This change adds two new C-level APIs:  PyEval_SetProfile() and
PyEval_SetTrace().  These can be used to install profile and trace
functions implemented in C, which can operate at much higher speeds
than Python-based functions.  The overhead for calling a C-based
profile function is a very small fraction of a percent of the overhead
involved in calling a Python-based function.

The machinery required to call a Python-based profile or trace
function been moved to sysmodule.c, where sys.setprofile() and
sys.setprofile() simply become users of the new interface.

Martin v. Löwis ce9b5a55e1 Encode surrogates in UTF-8 even for a wide Py_UNICODE.
Implement sys.maxunicode.
Explicitly wrap around upper/lower computations for wide Py_UNICODE.

Fredrik Lundh 9b14ab367a Make Unicode work a bit better on Windows... 2001-06-26 22:59:49 +00:00
Martin v. Löwis 0ba70cc3c8 Support using UCS-4 as the Py_UNICODE type:
Add configure option --enable-unicode.
Add config.h macros Py_USING_UNICODE, PY_UNICODE_TYPE, Py_UNICODE_SIZE,
                    SIZEOF_WCHAR_T.
Define Py_UCS2.
Encode and decode large UTF-8 characters into single Py_UNICODE values
for wide Unicode types; likewise for UTF-16.
Remove test whether sizeof Py_UNICODE is two.
2001-06-26 22:22:37 +00:00
Fredrik Lundh 1294ad0c59 experimental UCS-4 support: added USE_UCS4_STORAGE define to
unicodeobject.h, which forces sizeof(Py_UNICODE) == sizeof(Py_UCS4).
(this may be good enough for platforms that doesn't have a 16-bit
type.  the UTF-16 codecs don't work, though)

Tim Peters 8c96369513 PyFrameObject: rename f_stackbottom to f_stacktop, since it points to
the next free valuestack slot, not to the base (in America, stacks push
and pop at the top -- they mutate at the bottom in Australia <winK>).
eval_frame():  assert that f_stacktop isn't NULL upon entry.
frame_delloc():  avoid ordered pointer comparisons involving f_stacktop
when f_stacktop is NULL.
2001-06-23 05:26:56 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 14e1871607 Somehow, under certain circumstances, config.h and rename1.h would pop back up.
Try to see if 'cvs delete' fixes this.
2001-06-21 12:34:50 +00:00
Tim Peters 5ca576ed0a Merging the gen-branch into the main line, at Guido's direction. Yay!
Bugfix candidate in inspect.py:  it was referencing "self" outside of
a method.
2001-06-18 22:08:13 +00:00
Tim Peters a7259597f1 SF bug 433228: repr(list) woes when len(list) big.
Gave Python linear-time repr() implementations for dicts, lists, strings.
This means, e.g., that repr(range(50000)) is no longer 50x slower than
pprint.pprint() in 2.2 <wink>.

I don't consider this a bugfix candidate, as it's a performance boost.

Added _PyString_Join() to the internal string API.  If we want that in the
public API, fine, but then it requires runtime error checks instead of
asserts.
2001-06-16 05:11:17 +00:00
Tim Peters 2a9b367385 Two new private longobject API functions,
_PyLong_FromByteArray
    _PyLong_AsByteArray
Untested and probably buggy -- they compile OK, but nothing calls them

'q' and 'Q'.
If other people have uses for them, we could move them into the public API.

Marc-André Lemburg 489b56e044 This patch changes the behaviour of the UTF-16 codec family. Only the
UTF-16 codec will now interpret and remove a *leading* BOM mark. Sub-
sequent BOM characters are no longer interpreted and removed.
UTF-16-LE and -BE pass through all BOM mark characters.

These changes should get the UTF-16 codec more in line with what
the Unicode FAQ recommends w/r to BOM marks.

Marc-André Lemburg 2d9204199f This patch changes the way the string .encode() method works slightly
and introduces a new method .decode().

The major change is that strg.encode() will no longer try to convert
Unicode returns from the codec into a string, but instead pass along
the Unicode object as-is. The same is now true for all other codec
return types. The underlying C APIs were changed accordingly.

Note that even though this does have the potential of breaking
existing code, the chances are low since conversion from Unicode
previously took place using the default encoding which is normally
set to ASCII rendering this auto-conversion mechanism useless for
most Unicode encodings.

The good news is that you can now use .encode() and .decode() with
much greater ease and that the door was opened for better accessibility
of the builtin codecs.

As demonstration of the new feature, the patch includes a few new
codecs which allow string to string encoding and decoding (rot13,
hex, zip, uu, base64).

Tim Peters 6912d4ddf0 Generalize tuple() to work nicely with iterators.
NEEDS DOC CHANGES.
This one surprised me!  While I expected tuple() to be a no-brainer, turns
out it's actually dripping with consequences:
1. It will *allow* the popular PySequence_Fast() to work with any iterable
   object (code for that not yet checked in, but should be trivial).
2. It caused two std tests to fail.  This because some places used
   PyTuple_Sequence() (the C spelling of tuple()) as an indirect way to test
   whether something *is* a sequence.  But tuple() code only looked for the
   existence of sq->item to determine that, and e.g. an instance passed
   that test whether or not it supported the other operations tuple()
   needed (e.g., __len__).  So some things the tests *expected* to fail
   with an AttributeError now fail with a TypeError instead.  This looks
   like an improvement to me; e.g., test_coercion used to produce 559
   TypeErrors and 2 AttributeErrors, and now they're all TypeErrors.  The
   error details are more informative too, because the places calling this
   were *looking* for TypeErrors in order to replace the generic tuple()
   "not a sequence" msg with their own more specific text, and
   AttributeErrors snuck by that.

Tim Peters f4848dac41 Make PyIter_Next() a little smarter (wrt its knowledge of iterator
internals) so clients can be a lot dumber (wrt their knowledge).
2001-05-05 00:14:56 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg 8155e0e541 This patch originated from an idea by Martin v. Loewis who submitted a
patch for sharing single character Unicode objects.

Martin's patch had to be reworked in a number of ways to take Unicode
resizing into consideration as well. Here's what the updated patch
implements:

* Single character Unicode strings in the Latin-1 range are shared
  (not only ASCII chars as in Martin's original patch).

* The ASCII and Latin-1 codecs make use of this optimization,
  providing a noticable speedup for single character strings. Most
  Unicode methods can use the optimization as well (by virtue
  of using PyUnicode_FromUnicode()).

* Some code cleanup was done (replacing memcpy with Py_UNICODE_COPY)

* The PyUnicode_Resize() can now also handle the case of resizing
  unicode_empty which previously resulted in an error.

* Modified the internal API _PyUnicode_Resize() and
  the public PyUnicode_Resize() API to handle references to
  shared objects correctly. The _PyUnicode_Resize() signature
  changed due to this.

* Callers of PyUnicode_FromUnicode() may now only modify the Unicode
  object contents of the returned object in case they called the API
  with NULL as content template.

Note that even though this patch passes the regression tests, there
may still be subtle bugs in the sharing code.

Guido van Rossum 213c7a6aa5 Mondo changes to the iterator stuff, without changing how Python code
sees it (test_iter.py is unchanged).

- Added a tp_iternext slot, which calls the iterator's next() method;
  this is much faster for built-in iterators over built-in types
  such as lists and dicts, speeding up pybench's ForLoop with about
  25% compared to Python 2.1.  (Now there's a good argument for
  iterators. ;-)

- Renamed the built-in sequence iterator SeqIter, affecting the C API
  functions for it.  (This frees up the PyIter prefix for generic
  iterator operations.)

- Added PyIter_Check(obj), which checks that obj's type has a
  tp_iternext slot and that the proper feature flag is set.

- Added PyIter_Next(obj) which calls the tp_iternext slot.  It has a
  somewhat complex return condition due to the need for speed: when it
  returns NULL, it may not have set an exception condition, meaning
  the iterator is exhausted; when the exception StopIteration is set
  (or a derived exception class), it means the same thing; any other
  exception means some other error occurred.

Guido van Rossum 59d1d2b434 Iterators phase 1. This comprises:
new slot tp_iter in type object, plus new flag Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_ITER
new C API PyObject_GetIter(), calls tp_iter
new builtin iter(), with two forms: iter(obj), and iter(function, sentinel)
new internal object types iterobject and calliterobject
new exception StopIteration

iteration over dictionaries: "for x in dict" iterates over the keys
iteration over files: "for x in file" iterates over lines

TODO:

2001-03-23 02:46:52 +00:00
Fred Drake 4e262a9631 A small change to the C API for weakly-referencable types: Such types
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).

2001-03-22 03:57:58 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton bc32024769 Extend support for from __future__ import nested_scopes
If a module has a future statement enabling nested scopes, they are
also enable for the exec statement and the functions compile() and
execfile() if they occur in the module.

If Python is run with the -i option, which enters interactive mode
after executing a script, and the script it runs enables nested
scopes, they are also enabled in interactive mode.

XXX The use of -i with -c "from __future__ import nested_scopes" is
not supported.  What's the point?

To support these changes, many function variants have been added to
pythonrun.c.  All the variants names end with Flags and they take an
extra PyCompilerFlags * argument.  It is possible that this complexity
will be eliminated in a future version of the interpreter in which
nested scopes are not optional.

There is also a C API change: PyFrame_New() is reverting to its
pre-2.1 signature.  The change introduced by nested scopes was a
mistake.  XXX Is this okay between beta releases?

cell_clear(), the GC helper, must decref its reference to break
cycles.

frame_dealloc() must dealloc all cell vars and free vars in addition
to locals.

eval_code2() setup code must INCREF cells it copies out of the
closure.

The STORE_DEREF opcode implementation must DECREF the object it passes
to PyCell_Set().

Guido van Rossum f0ee4b20a9 RISCOS patch by dschwertberger 2001-03-02 06:10:17 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 9f324e964e Useful future statement support for the interactive interpreter
(Also remove warning about module-level global decl, because we can't
distinguish from code passed to exec.)

Define PyCompilerFlags type contains a single element,
cf_nested_scopes, that is true if a nested scopes future statement has
been entered at the interactive prompt.

New API functions:
    PyNode_CompileFlags()
    PyRun_InteractiveOneFlags()
    -- same as their non Flags counterparts except that the take an
       optional PyCompilerFlags pointer

compile.c: In jcompile() use PyCompilerFlags argument.  If
    cf_nested_scopes is true, compile code with nested scopes.  If it
    is false, but the code has a valid future nested scopes statement,
    set it to true.

pythonrun.c: Create a new PyCompilerFlags object in
    PyRun_InteractiveLoop() and thread it through to
    PyRun_InteractiveOneFlags().

compile.c: Add check for from __future__ imports to far into the file.

 	   In symtable_global() check for -1 returned from
	   symtable_lookup(), which signifies name not defined.

	   Add missing DECERF in symtable_add_def.

           Free c->c_future.

future.c:  Add special handling for multiple statements joined on a
	   single line using one or more semicolons; this form can
           include an illegal future statement that would otherwise be
           hard to detect.

symtable.h: Add st_nested_scopes slot.  Define flags to track exec and
    import star.

Lib/test/test_scope.py: requires nested scopes

compile.c: Fiddle with error messages.

    Reverse the sense of ste_optimized flag on
    PySymtableEntryObjects.  If it is true, there is an optimization
    conflict.

    Modify get_ref_type to respect st_nested_scopes flags.

    Refactor symtable_load_symbols() into several smaller functions,
    which use struct symbol_info to share variables.  In new function
    symtable_update_flags(), raise an error or warning for import * or
    bare exec that conflicts with nested scopes.  Also, modify handle
    for free variables to respect st_nested_scopes flag.

    In symtable_init() assign st_nested_scopes flag to
    NESTED_SCOPES_DEFAULT (defined in compile.h).

    Add preliminary and often incorrect implementation of
    symtable_check_future().

    Add symtable_lookup() helper for future use.

Jeremy Hylton cb17ae8b19 Relax the rules for using 'from ... import *' and exec in the presence
of nested functions.  Either is allowed in a function if it contains
no defs or lambdas or the defs and lambdas it contains have no free
variables.  If a function is itself nested and has free variables,
either is illegal.

Revise the symtable to use a PySymtableEntryObject, which holds all
the revelent information for a scope, rather than using a bunch of
st_cur_XXX pointers in the symtable struct.  The changes simplify the
internal management of the current symtable scope and of the stack.

Added new C source file: Python/symtable.c.  (Does the Windows build
process need to be updated?)

As part of these changes, the initial _symtable module interface
introduced in 2.1a2 is replaced.  A dictionary of
PySymtableEntryObjects are returned.

Improve error handling in symtable_enter_scope(), which return an
error code that went unchecked by most callers. XXX The error handling
in symtable code is sloppy in general.

Modify symtable to record the line number that begins each scope.
This can help to identify which code block is being referred to when
multiple blocks are bound to the same name.

Add st_scopes dict that is used to preserve scope info when
PyNode_CompileSymtable() is called.  Otherwise, this information is
tossed as soon as it is no longer needed.

Add Py_SymtableString() to pythonrun; analogous to Py_CompileString().

Jeremy Hylton 2b724da8d9 Remove f_closure slot of frameobject and use f_localsplus instead.
This change eliminates an extra malloc/free when a frame with free
variables is created.  Any cell vars or free vars are stored in
f_localsplus after the locals and before the stack.

eval_code2() fills in the appropriate values after handling
initialization of locals.

To track the size the frame has an f_size member that tracks the total
size of f_localsplus. It used to be implicitly f_nlocals + f_stacksize.

Tim Peters d9b9ac855c It's unclear whether PyMarshal_XXX() are part of the public or private API.
They're named as if public, so I did a Bad Thing by changing
PyMarshal_ReadObjectFromFile() to suck up the remainder of the file in one
gulp:  anyone who counted on that leaving the file pointer merely at the
end of the next object would be screwed.  So restored
PyMarshal_ReadObjectFromFile() to its earlier state, renamed the new greedy
code to PyMarshal_ReadLastObjectFromFile(), and changed Python internals to
call the latter instead.

Jeremy Hylton 64949cb753 PEP 227 implementation
The majority of the changes are in the compiler.  The mainloop changes
primarily to implement the new opcodes and to pass a function's
closure to eval_code2().  Frames and functions got new slots to hold
the closure.

Include/compile.h
    Add co_freevars and co_cellvars slots to code objects.
    Update PyCode_New() to take freevars and cellvars as arguments
Include/funcobject.h
    Add func_closure slot to function objects.
    Add GetClosure()/SetClosure() functions (and corresponding
    macros) for getting at the closure.
Include/frameobject.h
    PyFrame_New() now takes a closure.
Include/opcode.h
    Add four new opcodes: MAKE_CLOSURE, LOAD_CLOSURE, LOAD_DEREF,
    STORE_DEREF.
    Remove comment about old requirement for opcodes to fit in 7
    bits.
compile.c
    Implement changes to code objects for co_freevars and co_cellvars.

    Modify symbol table to use st_cur_name (string object for the name
    of the current scope) and st_cur_children (list of nested blocks).
    Also define st_nested, which might more properly be called
    st_cur_nested.  Add several DEF_XXX flags to track def-use
    information for free variables.

    New or modified functions of note:
    com_make_closure(struct compiling *, PyCodeObject *)
        Emit LOAD_CLOSURE opcodes as needed to pass cells for free
        variables into nested scope.
    com_addop_varname(struct compiling *, int, char *)
        Emits opcodes for LOAD_DEREF and STORE_DEREF.
    get_ref_type(struct compiling *, char *name)
        Return NAME_CLOSURE if ref type is FREE or CELL
    symtable_load_symbols(struct compiling *)
        Decides what variables are cell or free based on def-use info.
        Can now raise SyntaxError if nested scopes are mixed with
        exec or from blah import *.
    make_scope_info(PyObject *, PyObject *, int, int)
        Helper functions for symtable scope stack.
    symtable_update_free_vars(struct symtable *)
        After a code block has been analyzed, it must check each of
        its children for free variables that are not defined in the
        block.  If a variable is free in a child and not defined in
        the parent, then it is defined by block the enclosing the
        current one or it is a global.  This does the right logic.
    symtable_add_use() is now a macro for symtable_add_def()
    symtable_assign(struct symtable *, node *)
        Use goto instead of for (;;)

    Fixed bug in symtable where name of keyword argument in function
    call was treated as assignment in the scope of the call site. Ex:
        def f():

Guido van Rossum 5f284ce68e Introduction to rich comparisons:
- Removed the nb_add slot from the PyNumberMethods struct.

- Renamed Py_TPFLAGS_NEWSTYLENUMBER to Py_TPFLAGS_CHECKTYPES.

- Added typedef richcmpfunc.

- Added tp_richcompare slot to PyTypeObject (replacing spare tp_xxx7).

Barry Warsaw d6a9e84c81 Committing PEP 232, function attribute feature, approved by Guido.
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.

getopt() does what we want. Prefix optind, optarg and opterr with _PyOS_ to
avoid name clashes. Add new include file to define the right symbols. Fix
Demo/pyserv/pyserv.c to include getopt.h itself, instead of relying on
Python to provide it.

Tim Peters 38fd5b6413 Derived from Martin's SF patch 110609: support unbounded ints in %d,i,u,x,X,o formats.
Note a curious extension to the std C rules:  x, X and o formatting can never produce
a sign character in C, so the '+' and ' ' flags are meaningless for them.  But
unbounded ints *can* produce a sign character under these conversions (no fixed-
width bitstring is wide enough to hold all negative values in 2's-comp form).  So
these flags become meaningful in Python when formatting a Python long which is too
big to fit in a C long.  This required shuffling around existing code, which hacked
x and X conversions to death when both the '#' and '0' flags were specified:  the
hacks weren't strong enough to deal with the simultaneous possibility of the ' ' or
'+' flags too, since signs were always meaningless before for x and X conversions.
Isomorphic shuffling was required in unicodeobject.c.
Also added dozens of non-trivial new unbounded-int test cases to test_format.py.
2000-09-21 05:43:11 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg d1ba443206 This patch adds a new Python C API called PyString_AsStringAndSize()
which implements the automatic conversion from Unicode to a string
object using the default encoding.

The new API is then put to use to have eval() and exec accept
Unicode objects as code parameter. This closes bugs #110924
and #113890.

As side-effect, the traditional C APIs PyString_Size() and
PyString_AsString() will also accept Unicode objects as
parameters.

I can't test this, so I'm just checking it in with blind faith in Andy.
I've tested that it doesn't broeak a non-Pth build on Linux.

- There's a --with-pth configure option.

- Instead of _GNU_PTH, we test for HAVE_PTH.

- Better signal handling.

- (The config.h.in file is regenerated in a slightly different order.)

Tim Peters 4826a894c5 Close SF bug 110826: a complaint about the way Python #define'd NULL.
It's hard to sort out what the bug was, exactly.  So, Big Hammer:

1. Python shouldn't be in the business of #define'ing NULL, period.
2. Users of the Python C API shouldn't be in the business of not including
   Python.h, period.

Hence:

1. Removed all #define's of NULL in Python source code (pyport.h and
   object.h).
2. Since we're *relying* on stdio.h defining NULL, put an #error in
   Python.h after its #include of stdio.h if NULL isn't defined then.

Guido van Rossum 0df002c45b Add three new APIs: PyRun_AnyFileEx(), PyRun_SimpleFileEx(),
PyRun_FileEx().  These are the same as their non-Ex counterparts but
have an extra argument, a flag telling them to close the file when
done.

Then this is used by Py_Main() and execfile() to close the file after
it is parsed but before it is executed.

Adding APIs seems strange given the feature freeze but it's the only
way I see to close the bug report without incompatible changes.

Tim Peters 39dce29365 Fix for http://sourceforge.net/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=111866&group_id=5470.
This was a misleading bug -- the true "bug" was that hash(x) gave an error
return when x is an infinity.  Fixed that.  Added new Py_IS_INFINITY macro to
pyport.h.  Rearranged code to reduce growing duplication in hashing of float and
complex numbers, pushing Trent's earlier stab at that to a logical conclusion.
Fixed exceedingly rare bug where hashing of floats could return -1 even if there
wasn't an error (didn't waste time trying to construct a test case, it was simply
obvious from the code that it *could* happen).  Improved complex hash so that
hash(complex(x, y)) doesn't systematically equal hash(complex(y, x)) anymore.

Marc-André Lemburg bff879cabb This patch finalizes the move from UTF-8 to a default encoding in
the Python Unicode implementation.

The internal buffer used for implementing the buffer protocol
is renamed to defenc to make this change visible. It now holds the
default encoded version of the Unicode object and is calculated
on demand (NULL otherwise).

Since the default encoding defaults to ASCII, this will mean that
Unicode objects which hold non-ASCII characters will no longer
work on C APIs using the "s" or "t" parser markers. C APIs must now
explicitly provide Unicode support via the "u", "U" or "es"/"es#"
parser markers in order to work with non-ASCII Unicode strings.

(Note: this patch will also have to be applied to the 1.6 branch
 of the CVS tree.)

(The gethostname() one, for instance, breaks on several systems, because
some define it as (char *, size_t) and some as (char *, int).)

I purposely decided not to include the summary of used #defines like Tim did
in the first section of pyport.h. In my opinion, the number of #defines
likedly to be used by this section would make such an overview unwieldy. I
would suggest documenting the non-obvious ones, though.

just casts VALUE from type WIDE to type NARROW, but assert-fails if
Py_DEBUG is defined and info is lost due to casting.

Tim Peters 1be46844d9 Recent ANSIfication introduced a couple instances of

Introduced new Py_RETURN_FROM_SIGNAL_HANDLER macro in pyport.h
to expand to the correct thing based on RETSIGTYPE.  However,
only void is ANSI!  Do we still have platforms that return int?
The Unix config mess appears to #define RETSIGTYPE by magic
without being asked to, so I assume it's "a problem" across
Unices still.

Thomas Wouters 5f37591a16 ANSIfications: fix empty arglists, and remove the checks for

Thomas Wouters 7889010731 Miscelaneous ANSIfications. I'm assuming here 'main' should take (int,

Marc-André Lemburg cf5f358784 Restore PyXXX_Length() APIs for binary compatibility.
New code will see the macros and therefore use the PyXXX_Size()
APIs instead.
By Thomas Wouters.

Thomas Wouters 7e47402264 Spelling fixes supplied by Rob W. W. Hooft. All these are fixes in either
comments, docstrings or error messages. I fixed two minor things in
test_winreg.py ("didn't" -> "Didn't" and "Didnt" -> "Didn't").

There is a minor style issue involved: Guido seems to have preferred English
grammar (behaviour, honour) in a couple places. This patch changes that to
American, which is the more prominent style in the source. I prefer English
myself, so if English is preferred, I'd be happy to supply a patch myself ;)

Tim Peters 7d3a511a40 Cray J90 fixes for long ints.
This was a convenient excuse to create the pyport.h file recently
discussed!
Please use new Py_ARITHMETIC_RIGHT_SHIFT when right-shifting a
signed int and you *need* sign-extension.  This is #define'd in
pyport.h, keying off new config symbol SIGNED_RIGHT_SHIFT_ZERO_FILLS.
If you're running on a platform that needs that symbol #define'd,
the std tests never would have worked for you (in particular,
at least test_long would have failed).
The autoconfig stuff got added to Python after my Unix days, so
I don't know how that works.  Would someone please look into doing
& testing an auto-config of the SIGNED_RIGHT_SHIFT_ZERO_FILLS
symbol?  It needs to be defined if & only if, e.g., (-1) >> 3 is
not -1.

Greg Stein a90b23c571 One of the new prototypes was missing the "void" args. 2000-07-08 00:46:19 +00:00
Tim Peters 9ace6bc7ef Got RID of redundant coercions in longobject.c (as spotted by Greg
Stein -- thanks!).  Incidentally removed all the Py_PROTO macros
from object.h, as they prevented my editor from magically finding
the definitions of the "coercion", "cmpfunc" and "reprfunc"
typedefs that were being redundantly applied in longobject.c.

Marc-André Lemburg fa1309fd72 Fix to use Py_UCS4 2000-07-07 17:45:37 +00:00
Tim Peters 9f688bf9d2 Some cleanup of longs in prepartion for Cray J90 fixes: got
rid of Py_PROTO, switched to ANSI function decls, and did some
minor fiddling.
2000-07-07 15:53:28 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg 5a5c81a0e9 Added new API PyUnicode_FromEncodedObject() which supports decoding
objects including instance objects.

The old API PyUnicode_FromObject() is still available as shortcut.
2000-07-07 13:46:42 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg 295b1bbca1 Defunct the _XOPEN_SOURCE define for now. Suggested by Fredrik
Lundh as response to bug reports on True64 and IRIX.
2000-07-07 11:24:49 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg 43279100f4 Bill Tutt: Added Py_UCS4 typedef to hold UCS4 values (these need
at least 32 bits as opposed to Py_UNICODE which rely on having
16 bits).
2000-07-07 09:01:41 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg 3d1a1d7f0c Added prototypes for the new codec APIs for strings. These APIs
match the ones in the Unicode implementation, but were extended
to be able to reuse the existing Unicode codecs for string
purposes too.

Conversion from string to Unicode and back are done using the
default encoding.
2000-07-06 11:25:40 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg f03e74126e Modified the ISALPHA and ISALNUM macros to use the new lookup APIs
from unicodectype.c
2000-07-05 09:45:59 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg 82249c8389 Added #defines to enable SUSv2 compatibility where available and
to switch on support for BSD and SysV on platforms which use glibc
such as Linux.

These #defines are documented in e.g. the file /usr/include/features.h
on Linux platforms and the SUSv2 docs.
2000-07-05 08:53:18 +00:00
Tim Peters 1f5871e834 Removed Py_PROTO and switched to ANSI C declarations in the dict
implementation.  This was really to test whether my new CVS+SSH
setup is more usable than the old one -- and turns out it is (for
whatever reason, it was impossible to do a commit before that
involved more than one directory).
2000-07-04 17:44:48 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg a9c103bc09 Added new Py_UNICODE_ISALPHA() and Py_UNICODE_ISALNUM() macros
which are true for alphabetic and alphanumeric characters resp.

The macros are currently implemented using the existing is* tables
but will have to be updated to meet the Unicode standard definitions
(add tables for non-cased letters and letter modifiers).

Guido van Rossum 632ea6e353 Bump version to 2.0b1. 2000-06-29 22:29:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 13634cf7a4 This patch addresses two main issues: (1) There exist some non-fatal
errors in some of the hash algorithms. For exmaple, in float_hash and
complex_hash a certain part of the value is not included in the hash
calculation. See Tim's, Guido's, and my discussion of this on
python-dev in May under the title "fix float_hash and complex_hash for
64-bit *nix"

(2) The hash algorithms that use pointers (e.g. func_hash, code_hash)
are universally not correct on Win64 (they assume that sizeof(long) ==
sizeof(void*))

As well, this patch significantly cleans up the hash code. It adds the
two function _Py_HashDouble and _PyHash_VoidPtr that the various
hashing routine are changed to use.

These help maintain the hash function invariant: (a==b) =>
(hash(a)==hash(b))) I have added Lib/test/test_hash.py and
Lib/test/output/test_hash to test this for some cases.

Jeremy Hylton d08b4c4524 part 2 of Neil Schemenauer's GC patches:
This patch modifies the type structures of objects that
participate in GC.  The object's tp_basicsize is increased when
GC is enabled.  GC information is prefixed to the object to
maintain binary compatibility.  GC objects also define the
tp_flag Py_TPFLAGS_GC.

Jeremy Hylton 8caad49c30 Round 1 of Neil Schemenauer's GC patches:
This patch adds the type methods traverse and clear necessary for GC
implementation.
2000-06-23 14:18:11 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 94988067b9 Add new parser error code, E_OVERFLOW. This error is returned when
the number of children of a node exceeds the max possible value for
the short that is used to count them.  The Python runtime converts
this parser error into the SyntaxError "expression too long."
