annotate text signatures in docstrings, resulting in fewer false
positives. "self" parameters are also explicitly marked, allowing
inspect.Signature() to authoritatively detect (and skip) said parameters.
Issue #20326: Argument Clinic now generates separate checksums for the
input and output sections of the block, allowing external tools to verify
that the input has not changed (and thus the output is not out-of-date).
PyMethodDescr_Type, _PyMethodWrapper_Type, and PyWrapperDescr_Type)
have been modified to provide introspection information for builtins.
Also: many additional Lib, test suite, and Argument Clinic fixes.
crash when a generator is created in a C thread that is destroyed while the
generator is still used. The issue was that a generator contains a frame, and
the frame kept a reference to the Python state of the destroyed C thread. The
crash occurs when a trace function is setup.
str.encode, bytes.decode and bytearray.decode now use an
internal API to throw LookupError for known non-text encodings,
rather than attempting the encoding or decoding operation and
then throwing a TypeError for an unexpected output type.
The latter mechanism remains in place for third party non-text
encodings.
- output type errors now redirect users to the type-neutral
convenience functions in the codecs module
- stateless errors that occur during encoding and decoding
will now be automatically wrapped in exceptions that give
the name of the codec involved
_PyUnicode_CompareWithId() is faster than PyUnicode_CompareWithASCIIString()
when both strings are equal and interned.
Add also _PyId_builtins identifier for "builtins" common string.
instead of creating temporary Unicode string objects
Add also more identifiers in pythonrun.c to avoid temporary Unicode string
objets for the interactive interpreter.
- don't call PyErr_NoMemory with interpreter is not initialised
- note that it's OK to call _PyMem_RawStrDup here
- don't include this in the limited API
- capitalise "IO"
- be explicit that a non-zero return indicates an error
- include versionadded marker in docs
This new pre-initialization API allows embedding
applications like Blender to force a particular
encoding and error handler for the standard IO streams.
Also refactors Modules/_testembed.c to let us start
testing multiple embedding scenarios.
