* the has_key() method was not raising a DBError when a database error
had occurred. [SF patch id 1212590]
* added a wrapper for the DBEnv.set_lg_regionmax method [SF patch id 1212590]
* DBKeyEmptyError now derives from KeyError just like DBNotFoundError.
* internally everywhere DB_NOTFOUND was checked for has been updated
to also check for DB_KEYEMPTY. This fixes the semantics of a couple
operations on recno and queue databases to be more intuitive and results
in less unexpected DBKeyEmptyError exceptions being raised.
because (essentially) I didn't realise that PY_BEGIN/END_ALLOW_THREADS
actually expanded to nothing under a no-threads build, so if you somehow
NULLed out the threadstate (e.g. by calling PyThread_SaveThread) it would
stay NULLed when you return to Python. Argh!
Backport candidate.
[ 1166660 ] The readline module can cause python to segfault
It seems to me that the code I'm rewriting here attempted to call any
user-supplied hook functions using the thread state of the thread that
called the hook-setting function, as opposed to that of the thread
that is currently executing. This doesn't work, in general.
Fix this by using the PyGILState API (It wouldn't be that hard to
define a dummy version of said API when #ifndef WITH_THREAD, would
it?).
Also, check the conversion to integer of the return value of a hook
function for errors (this problem was mentioned in the ipython bug
report linked to in the above bug).
PyNumber_Check, rather than trying to convert to a float. Reimplemented
writer - now raises exceptions when it sees a quotechar but neither
doublequote or escapechar are set. Doublequote results are now more
consistent (eg, single quote should generate """", rather than "",
which is ambiguous).
when this limit is reached. Limit defaults to 128k, and is changed
by module set_field_limit() method. Previously, an unmatched quote
character could result in the entire file being read into the field
buffer, potentially exhausting virtual memory.
only contains instances of the dialect type, we can refer directly to the
dialect instances rather than creating new ones. In other words, if the
dialect comes from the registry, and we apply no further modifications,
the reader/writer can use the dialect object directly.
was done because we were previously performing validation of the dialect
from python, but this is now down within the C module. Also, the method
we were using to detect classes did not work with new-style classes.
