Thomas Wouters c6e55068ca Use Py_VISIT in all tp_traverse methods, instead of traversing manually or
using a custom, nearly-identical macro. This probably changes how some of
these functions are compiled, which may result in fractionally slower (or
faster) execution. Considering the nature of traversal, visiting much of the
address space in unpredictable patterns, I'd argue the code readability and
maintainability is well worth it ;P

Anthony Baxter a62862120d More low-hanging fruit. Still need to re-arrange some code (or find a better
solution) in the same way as listobject.c got changed. Hoping for a better
solution.

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 *.

Armin Rigo 56716150e6 This is the fastest I could get on Intel GCC. I kept the memset() in to clear
the newly created tuples, but tuples added in the freelist are now cleared in
tupledealloc already (which is very cheap, because we are already
Py_XDECREF'ing all elements anyway).

Python should have a standard Py_ZAP macro like ZAP in pystate.c.

Raymond Hettinger b7d05db0be Optimize tuple_slice() and make further improvements to list_slice()

Raymond Hettinger 686b14d7ad SF bug #730296: Unexpected Changes in list Iterator
Reverted a Py2.3b1 change to iterator in subclasses of list and tuple.
They had been changed to use __getitem__ whenever it had been overriden
in the subclass.

This caused some usabilty and performance problems.  Also, it was
inconsistent with the rest of python where many container methods
access the underlying object directly without first checking for
an overridden getter.  Users needing a change in iterator behavior
should override it directly.

Raymond Hettinger 9928571f3f SF bug 665835: filter() treatment of str and tuple inconsistent
As a side issue on this bug, it was noted that list and tuple iterators
used macros to directly access containers and would not recognize
__getitem__ overrides.  If the method is overridden, the patch returns
a generic sequence iterator which calls the __getitem__ method; otherwise,
it returns a high custom iterator with direct access to container elements.

Raymond Hettinger 1da1dbf458 Renamed PyObject_GenericGetIter to PyObject_SelfIter

Guido van Rossum 5d9113d8be Implement appropriate __getnewargs__ for all immutable subclassable builtin
types.  The special handling for these can now be removed from save_newobj().
Add some testing for this.

Also add support for setting the 'fast' flag on the Python Pickler class,
which suppresses use of the memo.

Guido van Rossum e3a8e7ed1d Call me anal, but there was a particular phrase that was speading to
comments everywhere that bugged me: /* Foo is inlined */ instead of
/* Inline Foo */.  Somehow the "is inlined" phrase always confused me
for half a second (thinking, "No it isn't" until I added the missing
"here").  The new phrase is hopefully unambiguous.

Raymond Hettinger 48923c5533 Moved special case for tuples from iterobject.c to

tuples everytime.   SF Patch #592065.

Jeremy Hylton 938ace69a0 staticforward bites the dust.
The staticforward define was needed to support certain broken C
compilers (notably SCO ODT 3.0, perhaps early AIX as well) botched the
static keyword when it was used with a forward declaration of a static
initialized structure.  Standard C allows the forward declaration with
static, and we've decided to stop catering to broken C compilers.  (In
fact, we expect that the compilers are all fixed eight years later.)

I'm leaving staticforward and statichere defined in object.h as
static.  This is only for backwards compatibility with C extensions
that might still use it.

XXX I haven't updated the documentation.
2002-07-17 16:30:39 +00:00
Tim Peters 3459251d5a object.h special-build macro minefield: renamed all the new lexical
helper macros to something saner, and used them appropriately in other
files too, to reduce #ifdef blocks.

classobject.c, instance_dealloc():  One of my worst Python Memories is
trying to fix this routine a few years ago when COUNT_ALLOCS was defined
but Py_TRACE_REFS wasn't.  The special-build code here is way too
complicated.  Now it's much simpler.  Difference:  in a Py_TRACE_REFS
build, the instance is no longer in the doubly-linked list of live
objects while its __del__ method is executing, and that may be visible
via sys.getobjects() called from a __del__ method.  Tough -- the object
is presumed dead while its __del__ is executing anyway, and not calling
_Py_NewReference() at the start allows enormous code simplification.

typeobject.c, call_finalizer():  The special-build instance_dealloc()
pain apparently spread to here too via cut-'n-paste, and this is much
simpler now too.  In addition, I didn't understand why this routine
was calling _PyObject_GC_TRACK() after a resurrection, since there's no
plausible way _PyObject_GC_UNTRACK() could have been called on the
object by this point.  I suspect it was left over from pasting the
instance_delloc() code.  Instead asserted that the object is still
tracked.  Caution:  I suspect we don't have a test that actually
exercises the subtype_dealloc() __del__-resurrected-me code.

Michael W. Hudson 5efaf7eac8 This is my nearly two year old patch
[ 400998 ] experimental support for extended slicing on lists

somewhat spruced up and better tested than it was when I wrote it.

should support extended slices -- later.

Neil Schemenauer 626d774df6 PyObject_GC_Del can now be used as a function designator. 2002-04-12 03:05:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ff413af605 This is Neil's fix for SF bug 535905 (Evil Trashcan and GC interaction).
The fix makes it possible to call PyObject_GC_UnTrack() more than once
on the same object, and then move the PyObject_GC_UnTrack() call to
*before* the trashcan code is invoked.

BUGFIX CANDIDATE!
2002-03-28 20:34:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f70590f990 _PyTuple_Resize(): this dumped core on tuple(globals()) for me. Turns
out the for loop at the end intended to zero out new items wasn't
doing anything, because sv->ob_size was already equal to newsize.  The
fix slightly refactors the function, introducing a variable oldsize
and doing away with sizediff (which was used only once), and using
oldsize and newsize consistently.  I also added comments explaining
what the two for loops do.  (Looking at the CVS annotation of this
function, it's no miracle a bug crept in -- this has been patched by
many different folks! :-)
2001-12-07 20:00:04 +00:00
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 4b8c0f6d7d More stuff discovered while writing the simplest of testcases:
tupledealloc(): only feed the free list when the type is really a

_PyTuple_Resize(): disallow using this for tuple subtypes.
