Thomas Wouters 0be5aab04d Merge UNPACK_LIST and UNPACK_TUPLE into a single UNPACK_SEQUENCE, since they
did the same anyway.

I'm not sure what to do with Tools/compiler/compiler/* -- that isn't part of
distutils, is it ? Should it try to be compatible with old bytecode version ?

Vladimir Marangozov 2c57e076fe #include reordering so that extern "C" does not interfere with
standard C++ specific includes.

Closes patch 101061.

Marc-André Lemburg 1a731c60a3 Added #fndef's to avoid compiler errors. 2000-08-11 11:43:10 +00:00
Peter Schneider-Kamp 10e1bf2f64 remove all occurence of math.rint() from the sources
(and yes, "Currintly" also counts <0.5 wink>)
2000-08-10 04:23:30 +00:00
Jack Jansen 275abb3f1b Added a prototype for PyOS_CheckStack (within #ifdef USE_STACKCHECK). 2000-08-07 21:00:42 +00:00
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.)

Guido van Rossum c4a19e7fe9 Remobe beopen/cnri/cwi copyrights, according to CNRI instructions.
This doesn't change the copyright status for these files -- just the
markings!  Doing it on the main branch for these three files for which
the HEAD revision was pushed back into 1.6.
2000-08-03 16:42:14 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 16b1ad9c7d Changing the CNRI copyright notice according to CNRI's instructions.
This is a notice without a date, which apparently is not a claim to
copyright but only advice to the reader.  IANAL. :-)

Andrew M. Kuchling 767bf49b6b Added #define for oldest version of argument calling 2000-08-03 02:28:54 +00:00

Peter Schneider-Kamp 25f68944c2 patch from Vladimir (move Py_Mem* interface to Include/pymem.h) 2000-07-31 22:19:30 +00:00
Peter Schneider-Kamp 7e01890986 merge Include/my*.h into Include/pyport.h
marked my*.h as obsolete
2000-07-31 15:28:04 +00:00
Sjoerd Mullender 0765fe3a05 Make mode_t available for the declaration of _getpty(). 2000-07-26 15:46:29 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 334fb8985b Use 'void' directly instead of the ANY #define, now that all code is ANSI C.
Leave the actual #define in for API compatibility.
2000-07-25 12:56:38 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 1e0c2f4bee Create a new section of pyport.h to hold all external function declarations
for systems that are missing those declarations from system include files.
Start by moving a pointy-haired ones from their previous locations to the
new section.

(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.
2000-07-24 16:06:23 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 94d8fea62e Remove function-less prototype (old function that was removed ?) that
happens to be a C++ reserved word, too.
2000-07-24 10:58:31 +00:00
Tim Peters 4f1b2081e9 Removed all instances of RETSIGTYPE from the source code: signal
handlers "return void", according to ANSI C.
Removed the new Py_RETURN_FROM_SIGNAL_HANDLER macro.
Left RETSIGTYPE in the config stuff, because it's not clear to
me that others aren't relying on it (e.g., extension modules).
2000-07-23 21:18:09 +00:00
Tim Peters 8315ea5790 Included assert.h in Python.h -- it's absurd that this basic tool of
good C practice hasn't been available to everything all along.
Added Py_SAFE_DOWNCAST(VALUE, WIDE, NARROW) macro to pyport.h; this
just casts VALUE from type WIDE to type NARROW, but assert-fails if
Py_DEBUG is defined and info is lost due to casting.
Replaced a line in Fredrik's fix to marshal.c to use the new macro.
2000-07-23 19:28:35 +00:00
Tim Peters 1be46844d9 Recent ANSIfication introduced a couple instances of
#if RETSIGTYPE != void
That isn't C, and MSVC properly refuses to compile it.
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.
2000-07-23 18:10:18 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 5f37591a16 ANSIfications: fix empty arglists, and remove the checks for
'HAVE_STDARG_PROTOTYPES' (consider it true, remove false branch)
2000-07-22 23:30:03 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 7889010731 Miscelaneous ANSIfications. I'm assuming here 'main' should take (int,
char**) and return an int even on PC platforms. If not, please fix
PC/utils/makesrc.c ;-P
2000-07-22 19:25:51 +00:00
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.
2000-07-17 09:22:55 +00:00
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 ;)
2000-07-16 12:04:32 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 06051edc0d Added PyObject_AsFileDescriptor, which checks for integer, long integer,
or .fileno() method

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 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

Greg Ward 9581144329 Typo fix in comment. 2000-05-28 20:29:48 +00:00
Barry Warsaw c094ac856f Now that standard exceptions are builtin, we don't need two phase init
or fini of the builtin module.

_PyBuiltin_Init_1 => _PyBuiltin_Init
_PyBuiltin_Init_2 removed
_PyBuiltin_Fini_1 removed
_PyBuiltin_Fini_2 removed

These functions are used to initialize the _exceptions module.

Guido van Rossum b18618dab7 Vladimir Marangozov's long-awaited malloc restructuring.
For more comments, read the patches@python.org archives.
For documentation read the comments in mymalloc.h and objimpl.h.

(This is not exactly what Vladimir posted to the patches list; I've
made a few changes, and Vladimir sent me a fix in private email for a
problem that only occurs in debug mode.  I'm also holding back on his
change to main.c, which seems unnecessary to me.)

Guido van Rossum e92e610a9e Christian Tismer -- total rewrite on trashcan code.
Improvements:
- does no longer need any extra memory
- has no relationship to tstate
- works in debug mode
- can easily be modified for free threading (hi Greg:)

Side effects:
Trashcan does change the order of object destruction.
Prevending that would be quite an immense effort, as
my attempts have shown. This version works always
the same, with debug mode or not. The slightly
changed destruction order should therefore be no problem.

Algorithm:
While the old idea of delaying the destruction of some
obejcts at a certain recursion level was kept, we now
no longer aloocate an object to hold these objects.
The delayed objects are instead chained together
via their ob_type field. The type is encoded via
ob_refcnt. When it comes to the destruction of the
chain of waiting objects, the topmost object is popped
off the chain and revived with type and refcount 1,
then it gets a normal Py_DECREF.

I am confident that this solution is near optimum
for minimizing side effects and code bloat.

Guido van Rossum 08df3ac066 Bump version to 1.6a2 -- to be released one of these days. 2000-04-06 15:01:30 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9e896b37c7 Marc-Andre's third try at this bulk patch seems to work (except that
his copy of test_contains.py seems to be broken -- the lines he
deleted were already absent).  Checkin messages:


New Unicode support for int(), float(), complex() and long().

- new APIs PyInt_FromUnicode() and PyLong_FromUnicode()
- added support for Unicode to PyFloat_FromString()
- new encoding API PyUnicode_EncodeDecimal() which converts
  Unicode to a decimal char* string (used in the above new
  APIs)
- shortcuts for calls like int(<int object>) and float(<float obj>)
- tests for all of the above

Unicode compares and contains checks:
- comparing Unicode and non-string types now works; TypeErrors
  are masked, all other errors such as ValueError during
  Unicode coercion are passed through (note that PyUnicode_Compare
  does not implement the masking -- PyObject_Compare does this)
- contains now works for non-string types too; TypeErrors are
  masked and 0 returned; all other errors are passed through

Better testing support for the standard codecs.

Misc minor enhancements, such as an alias dbcs for the mbcs codec.

Changes:
- PyLong_FromString() now applies the same error checks as
  does PyInt_FromString(): trailing garbage is reported
  as error and not longer silently ignored. The only characters
  which may be trailing the digits are 'L' and 'l' -- these
  are still silently ignored.
- string.ato?() now directly interface to int(), long() and
  float(). The error strings are now a little different, but
  the type still remains the same. These functions are now
  ready to get declared obsolete ;-)
- PyNumber_Int() now also does a check for embedded NULL chars
  in the input string; PyNumber_Long() already did this (and
  still does)

Followed by:

Looks like I've gone a step too far there... (and test_contains.py
seem to have a bug too).

I've changed back to reporting all errors in PyUnicode_Contains()

Guido van Rossum 24bdb0474f Marc-Andre Lemburg:
The attached patch set includes a workaround to get Python with
Unicode compile on BSDI 4.x (courtesy Thomas Wouters; the cause
is a bug in the BSDI wchar.h header file) and Python interfaces
for the MBCS codec donated by Mark Hammond.

Also included are some minor corrections w/r to the docs of
the new "es" and "es#" parser markers (use PyMem_Free() instead
of free(); thanks to Mark Hammond for finding these).

The unicodedata tests are now in a separate file
(test_unicodedata.py) to avoid problems if the module cannot
be found.

Barry Warsaw 51ac58039f On 17-Mar-2000, Marc-Andre Lemburg said:
Attached you find an update of the Unicode implementation.

    The patch is against the current CVS version. I would appreciate
    if someone with CVS checkin permissions could check the changes
    in.

    The patch contains all bugs and patches sent this week and also
    fixes a leak in the codecs code and a bug in the free list code
    for Unicode objects (which only shows up when compiling Python
    with Py_DEBUG; thanks to MarkH for spotting this one).

Guido van Rossum 8746082175 Patch by Tim Peters:
Introduce a new builtin exception, UnboundLocalError, raised when ceval.c
tries to retrieve or delete a local name that isn't bound to a value.
Currently raises NameError, which makes this behavior a FAQ since the same
error is raised for "missing" global names too:  when the user has a global
of the same name as the unbound local, NameError makes no sense to them.
Even in the absence of shadowing, knowing whether a bogus name is local or
global is a real aid to quick understanding.

Example:

D:\src\PCbuild>type local.py
x = 42

def f():
    print x
    x = 13
    return x

f()

D:\src\PCbuild>python local.py
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "local.py", line 8, in ?
    f()
  File "local.py", line 4, in f
    print x
UnboundLocalError: x

D:\src\PCbuild>

Note that UnboundLocalError is a subclass of NameError, for compatibility
with existing class-exception code that may be trying to catch this as a
NameError.  Unfortunately, I see no way to make this wholly compatible
with -X (see comments in bltinmodule.c):  under -X, [UnboundLocalError
is an alias for NameError --GvR].

[The ceval.c patch differs slightly from the second version that Tim
submitted; I decided not to raise UnboundLocalError for DELETE_NAME,
only for DELETE_LOCAL.  DELETE_NAME is only generated at the module
level, and since at that level a NameError is raised for referencing
an undefined name, it should also be raised for deleting one.]

1998-10-24 19:47:34 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 36eef3c173 Changes by Greg Stein (code) and GvR (design).
Add a new member to the PyBufferProcs struct, bf_getcharbuffer.  For
backward compatibility, this member should only be used (this includes
testing for NULL!) when the flag Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_GETCHARBUFFER is set
in the type structure, below.  Note that if its flag is not set, we
may be looking at an extension module compiled for 1.5.1, which will
have garbage at the bf_getcharbuffer member (because the struct wasn't
as long then).  If the flag is one, the pointer may still be NULL.
The function found at this member is used in a similar manner as
bf_getreadbuffer, but it is known to point to 8-bit character data.
(See discussion in getargs.c checked in later.)

As a general feature for extending the type structure and the various
structures that (may) hang off it in a backwards compatible way, we
rename the tp_xxx4 "spare" slot to tp_flags.  In 1.5.1 and before,
this slot was always zero.  In 1.5.1, it may contain various flags
indicating extra fields that weren't present in 1.5.1.  The only flag
defined so far is for the bf_getcharbuffer member of the PyBufferProcs
struct.

Note that the new spares (tp_xxx5 - tp_xxx8), once they become used,
should also be protected by a flag (or flags) in tp_flags.

clear_carefully() used to do in import.c.  Differences: leave only
__builtins__ alone in the 2nd pass; and don't clear the dictionary (on
the theory that as long as there are references left to the
dictionary, those might be destructors that might expect __builtins__
to be alive when they run; and __builtins__ can't normally be part of
a cycle).

Guido van Rossum 359bcaa539 This fix (across 4 files in 3 directories) solves a subtle problem with
signal handlers in a fork()ed child process when Python is compiled with
thread support.  The bug was reported by Scott <scott@chronis.icgroup.com>.

What happens is that after a fork(), the variables used by the signal
module to determine whether this is the main thread or not are bogus,
and it decides that no thread is the main thread, so no signals will
be delivered.

The solution is the addition of PyOS_AfterFork(), which fixes the signal
module's variables.  A dummy version of the function is present in the
intrcheck.c source file which is linked when the signal module is not
used.

Guido van Rossum 0474832d9c Introduce PyExc_Exception as the conceptual root class for all exceptions. 1997-09-16 18:43:15 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7ca65abb2f Set it to 1.5a4, now we have dotted-name import... 1997-09-08 02:17:31 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 114c1eabbb #Added prototype for PyObject_HasAttr() -- must've been an oversight. 1997-09-06 18:44:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 49bb0e32a0 Fix in trailing comment: PyDict_SetItemString() does *not* consume a reference
count, PyList_SetItem() does.  Very confusing!
1997-09-05 17:53:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 026de19906 Added PyImport_ImportModuleEx(name, globals, locals, fromlist); this
is like PyImport_ImporModule(name) but receives the globals and locals
dict and the fromlist arguments as well.  (The name is a char*; the
others are PyObject*s).
1997-09-05 07:11:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d7ed683a7e Inline PyObject_CallObject (Marc-Andre Lemburg). 1997-08-30 15:02:50 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3d90af967d Added NoSite flag. 1997-08-29 22:34:00 +00:00
Barry Warsaw d5a0ff972d Added extern definition for -X flag variable. 1997-08-29 22:01:11 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 0596c2ac28 Declarations for two phase initialization and finalization functions
for the built-in module.
1997-08-29 21:57:07 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 392d8272bf Added externs for three new exceptions PyExc_StandardError,
PyExc_NumberError, and PyExc_LookupError.  Also added extern for
pre-instantiated exception instance PyExc_MemoryErrorInst.

Removed extern of obsolete exception PyExc_AccessError.
1997-08-29 21:56:07 +00:00
Barry Warsaw c0dc92af7d Three new C API functions:
- int PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches(obj1, obj2)

  Returns 1 if obj1 and obj2 are the same object, or if obj1 is an
  instance of type obj2, or of a class derived from obj2

- int PyErr_ExceptionMatches(obj)

  Higher level wrapper around PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches() which uses
  PyErr_Occurred() as obj1.  This will be the more commonly called
  function.

- void PyErr_NormalizeException(typeptr, valptr, tbptr)

  Normalizes exceptions, and places the normalized values in the
  arguments.  If type is not a class, this does nothing.  If type is a
  class, then it makes sure that value is an instance of the class by:

  1. if instance is of the type, or a class derived from type, it does
     nothing.

  2. otherwise it instantiates the class, using the value as an
     argument.  If value is None, it uses an empty arg tuple, and if
     the value is a tuple, it uses just that.
1997-08-22 21:22:58 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e3c0d5eb34 Added new Py_IsInitalized() API function to test the 'initialized' flag. 1997-08-22 04:20:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ab589b945e Completely disable the declarations for malloc() and friends. Use
#ifdef though, so if you still need these for a really backwards
compiler you know what to do.
1997-08-21 16:13:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ef3138f9ad Moved assert.h to ../Parser directory 1997-08-19 12:07:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9faabb8d23 Added prototype for PyImport_Import(). 1997-08-14 19:52:09 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 142eeb8339 cPickle release 0.3 from Jim Fulton 1997-08-13 03:14:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3fb1aea0ae Added decls for stuff from myreadline. 1997-08-12 15:14:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8e5e4461a8 Added prototype for various finalizers. 1997-08-12 14:57:21 +00:00
Guido van Rossum bb301c53ed Added prototype for PyGrammar_RemoveAccelerators(). 1997-08-12 14:57:08 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 15974ad5e6 Bump MS_DLL_ID to 1.5.0. 1997-08-12 14:48:03 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1d529d1ecd Add a cast to the call to _Py_Dealloc in the expanded version of
Py_DECREF, to reduce the warnings when compiling with reference count
debugging on.  (There are still warnings for each call to
_Py_NewReference -- too bad.)
1997-08-05 02:30:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d085e88d3c Added Py_Malloc and friends as well as PyMem_Malloc and friends. 1997-08-05 01:59:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 29e46a9a12 Mass checkin (more to follow for other directories).
Introduce truly separate (sub)interpreter objects.  For now, these
must be used by separate threads, created from C.  See Demo/pysvr for
an example of how to use this.  This also rationalizes Python's
initialization and finalization behavior:

Py_Initialize() -- initialize the whole interpreter
Py_Finalize() -- finalize the whole interpreter

tstate = Py_NewInterpreter() -- create a new (sub)interpreter
Py_EndInterpreter(tstate) -- delete a new (sub)interpreter

There are also new interfaces relating to threads and the interpreter
lock, which can be used to create new threads, and sometimes have to
be used to manipulate the interpreter lock when creating or deleting
sub-interpreters.  These are only defined when WITH_THREAD is defined:

PyEval_AcquireLock() -- acquire the interpreter lock
PyEval_ReleaseLock() -- release the interpreter lock

PyEval_AcquireThread(tstate) -- acquire the lock and make the thread current
PyEval_ReleaseThread(tstate) -- release the lock and make NULL current

Other administrative changes:

- The header file bltinmodule.h is deleted.

- The init functions for Import, Sys and Builtin are now internal and
  declared in pythonrun.h.

- Py_Setup() and Py_Cleanup() are no longer declared.

- The interpreter state and thread state structures are now linked
  together in a chain (the chain of interpreters is a static variable
  in pythonrun.c).

- Some members of the interpreter and thread structures have new,
  shorter, more consistent, names.

- Added declarations for _PyImport_{Find,Fixup}Extension() to import.h.
1997-08-02 02:56:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7a2d6112d9 Add cast to PyInt_AS_LONG macro, as suggested by Marc Lemburg. 1997-08-02 02:41:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 2981bc7a65 Add cast to PyFloat_AS_DOUBLE macro, as suggested by Marc Lemburg. 1997-08-02 02:40:58 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 766118525a Changed the patch level to 1.5a3, to avoid confusion with a2 (I'm not
ready for a release yet).
1997-07-19 23:46:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 57d8e3f1c7 Added declarations for Py_{Set,Get}ProgramName() and a bunch of other
Py_Get*() functions.
1997-07-19 19:50:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5617f32c5c Added decl for PyInt_GetMax(). 1997-07-19 19:49:11 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a847889607 Moved PyEval_InitThreads to inside WITH_THREAD, where it belongs. 1997-07-19 19:27:30 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e6fb2043ce Got rid of "suppres printing" flag. 1997-07-19 19:26:38 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 618af4b3ef Include pystate.h earlier so it can be referenced by ceval.h. 1997-07-18 23:59:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 2fca21f762 PyEval_SaveThread() and PyEval_RestoreThread() now return/take a
PyThreadState pointer instead of a (frame) PyObject pointer.  This
makes much more sense.  It is backward incompatible, but that's no
problem, because (a) the heaviest users are the Py_{BEGIN,END}_
ALLOW_THREADS macros here, which have been fixed too; (b) there are
very few direct users; (c) those who use it are there will probably
appreciate the change.

Also, added new functions PyEval_AcquireThread() and
PyEval_ReleaseThread() which allows the threads created by the thread
module as well threads created by others (!) to set/reset the current
thread, and at the same time acquire/release the interpreter lock.

Much saner.
1997-07-18 23:56:58 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4b11c74f7c Only add 1 byte to all malloc calls when it is known that malloc(0) or
realloc(p, 0) returns NULL.  See changes to configure script to be
checked in later.
1997-07-10 22:40:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 745b8cff08 flushline and writestring can now return an error 1997-05-22 22:23:46 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 59943ba718 Added Py_PROTO macros for SunOS 4.x /bin/cc. 1997-05-20 22:07:46 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 2ec9031b55 Subsumed mappingobject.h in dictobject.h. 1997-05-13 21:23:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6a33de9526 Get rid of obsolete ACCESS_MODE opcode. 1997-05-09 00:39:04 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6778f257b7 Oops, rename2.h was included by some other headers. 1997-05-07 23:50:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b05a5c7698 Instead of importing graminit.h whenever one of the three grammar 'root'
symbols is needed, define these in Python.h with a Py_ prefix.
1997-05-07 17:46:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum fdf95dd525 Checkin of Jack's buffer mods.
Not really checked, but didn't fail any tests either...
1997-05-05 22:15:02 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a027efa5bf Massive changes for separate thread state management.
All per-thread globals are moved into a struct which is manipulated
separately.
1997-05-05 20:56:21 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4a43cc67db Remove sys_* defines that are internal only and about to disappear 1997-05-05 20:46:18 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 84bf42531c Finally deleted this obsolete crud. 1997-05-02 04:01:08 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d27b4f2a3f Several oopsies -- Py_ALLOBJECTS_H -> Py_PYTHON_H, temporarily removed
pystate.h (to be restored later when that code is debugged), removed
accessobject.h.
1997-05-02 04:00:11 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 174f95adf7 Moved allobjects.h to Python.h (without rename2.h).
allobjects.h disappears -- old-style extensions must include Python.h
and rename2.h.
1997-05-02 03:55:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 87490eb3b0 Renamed inittab. 1997-04-29 20:31:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e601c0f55d Added new name for inittab! 1997-04-29 16:23:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 63c35e5407 Remove macros that are only used for cgensupport.[ch].
Fixed typo in PyArg_VaParse (not PyArgs_*).
1997-04-29 16:21:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 92e8782217 Moved cgensupport.h to Modules (awaiting oblivion). 1997-04-29 16:08:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1818b7702b Moved rename2's macros relevant to this module here and added comment
about the file's obsolescence.
1997-04-29 15:35:28 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 45c3aaba56 Got rid of the static decl of PyCObject_Import, which was a 1.4
compatibility hack.
1997-04-09 18:04:08 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0a73dd5f35 Changed the way the C API was exported. Jim Fulton. 1997-04-09 17:34:28 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8ecd1ad785 Added assert grammar. 1997-04-02 05:24:08 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6fa4466cec Added AssertionError. 1997-04-02 05:22:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 94dbd99483 Remove ConflictError (which was also removed from bltinmodule.c, even
though the checkin message failed to note that).
1997-03-31 17:19:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e053c67780 Remove err_input -- there is no such global! 1997-03-14 05:09:30 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f0958064f9 Remove redundant references to thread stuff -- long, long ago, there
was some locking code in this file that needed it...
1997-03-14 04:25:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 74277916a9 Add Macros defining new names for all external symbols. 1997-03-14 04:24:08 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1f06beeedd Change PyFPE_END_PROTECT to PyFPE_END_PROTECT(v). v should be the
last variable to which a floating point expression is assigned.  The
macro passes its address to a dummy function so that the optimizer
can't delay calculating its value until after the macro.
1997-03-14 04:23:42 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f39fc43f31 A few comment alignment and clarifications. 1997-03-04 18:31:47 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 7d4266ed5a Changes for Lee Busby's SIGFPE patch set.
New file pyfpe.h, new exception FloatingPointError.
1997-02-14 22:53:12 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1ca407f3e4 Fix the comments for bitwise and/or. 1997-02-14 22:51:40 +00:00

Guido van Rossum fb76f1af9b djgpp support. 1997-02-14 16:36:08 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 767579854c Add co_firstlineno and co_lnotab, for the line number table generated
by the compiler (in lieu of SET_LINENO instructions).
1997-01-24 03:41:09 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e0e696282f Added PyCObject_Import. 1997-01-22 20:48:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c1ef39f795 Bump version to 1.5a1. 1997-01-22 03:46:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cdf578ebaf New lay-out of frame object, for fewer mallocs.
See frameobject.c checkin message.
1997-01-20 04:16:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ee5cf9b672 Bump API version due to the various speedup hacks. 1997-01-18 07:54:03 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1e6e9a2368 Two speedup hacks. Caching the hash saves recalculation of a string's
hash value.  Interning strings (which requires hash caching) tries to
ensure that only one string object with a given value exists, so
equality tests are one pointer comparison.  Together, these can speed
the interpreter up by as much as 20%.  Each costs the size of a long
or pointer per string object.  In addition, interned strings live
until the end of times.  If you are concerned about memory footprint,
simply comment the #define out here (and rebuild everything!).
1997-01-18 07:53:23 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3f6e408a31 Add co_stacksize field to codeobject structure, and stacksize argument
to PyCode_New() argument list.  Also add CO_MAXBLOCKS constant
indicating the maximum static nesting supported by the compiler.
1997-01-17 20:59:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d81a1baa5f Jim's latest version 1997-01-06 22:50:12 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 9c5494a1b9 added PyTuple_GET_SIZE macro 1997-01-06 22:44:27 +00:00
Barry Warsaw accfb849f9 added PyString_GET_SIZE macro
for both PyString_GET_SIZE and PyString_AS_STRING, cast first argument
to a PyStringObject*
1997-01-06 22:42:50 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 1f2bd07aed added PyList_GET_SIZE macro
for both PyList_GET_SIZE and PyList_GET_ITEM, cast first argument to a
PyListObject*
1997-01-06 22:42:00 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 53756b1097 Added PyLong_FromUnsignedLong() and PyLong_AsUnsignedLong(). 1997-01-03 17:14:46 +00:00
Barry Warsaw f3f41a9e57 Added declaration for PyErr_SetInterrupt. 1997-01-03 00:15:03 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 408027ea46 Rename DEBUG macro to Py_DEBUG 1996-12-30 16:17:54 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 2adf06b04c Added missing for PySequence_List. 1996-12-05 21:48:50 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d266eb460e New permission notice, includes CNRI. 1996-10-25 14:44:06 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 58055847f4 Changed version to plain "1.4". 1996-10-22 03:09:46 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b75fba04c7 Forget about Ellipses b/w compatibility. 1996-10-16 04:18:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e449af7da9 Ellipses -> Ellipsis rename (the dictionary really says that it should
be Ellipsis!).
Bumped the API version because a linker-visible symbol is affected.
Old C code will still compile -- there's a b/w compat macro.
Similarly, old Python code will still run, builtin exports both
Ellipses and Ellipsis.
1996-10-11 16:25:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a63518436a Add waitflag to down_sema(). 1996-10-08 14:21:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c8ce571c16 Rationalized PC compiler defines: require MS_WINDOWS or __BORLANDC__
or __WATCOMC__.  Add ALTSEP for PC filesystems.
1996-09-11 20:20:58 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a25e5e9ae9 PyMapping_DelItem[String] are actually macros. 1996-09-06 13:48:38 +00:00

Guido van Rossum ace527cbc2 Change comments/#ifdef structure for declaration for hypot(). 1996-08-29 18:12:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 2a516c8f2c Bump patchlevel (a bit early, but what the heck...) 1996-08-22 23:15:05 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 2ea0b06498 Add PYTHON_API_STRING, which is PYTHON_API_VERSION as a string literal.
Under Windows, add MS_DLL_ID and MS_DLL_VERSION_ID for Mark H.

Independent change: if Py_TRACE_REFS is defined, rename Py_InitModule4
so so linking with incompatible modules will create a link time error.

[Backing out of previous changes (also for modsupport.c) to test
the latter at runtime.]
1996-08-22 22:55:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6cdc6f4146 Added PyObject_DelItem and PySequence_Del{Item,Slice}. 1996-08-21 17:41:54 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 0693dd232e Added tp_getattro, tp_setattro (Sjoerd) 1996-08-09 20:48:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1d60614d42 Correctly use Py_PROTO, not obsolete PROTO. 1996-08-08 18:44:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6f90e9862e Renamed errors. -> pyerrors.h (for Mac, where Errors.h is a system header). 1996-08-08 18:43:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 578cedde35 Typo: PySequence_Lenth -> PySequence_Length. 1996-08-08 18:43:10 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9caf77a485 Put definition of _REENTRANT in config.h 1996-08-01 00:52:26 +00:00
