- regenerate ast.py
- add future flags for absolute-import and with-statement so they
(hopefully) properly get set in code-object flags
- try out if/else expressions in actual code for the hell of it.
Seems to generate the same kind of bytecode as the normal compiler.
The culprit was an expression-less yield -- the first apparently in
the standard library. I added a unit test for this.
Also removed the hack to force compilation of test_with.py.
SF patch #1015989
The basic idea of this patch is to compute lineno attributes for all AST nodes. The actual
implementation lead to a lot of restructing and code cleanup.
The generated AST nodes now have an optional lineno argument to constructor. Remove the
top-level asList(), since it didn't seem to serve any purpose. Add an __iter__ to ast nodes.
Use isinstance() instead of explicit type tests.
Change transformer to use the new lineno attribute, which replaces three lines of code with one.
Use universal newlines so that we can get rid of special-case code for line endings. Use
lookup_node() in a few more frequently called, but simple com_xxx methods(). Change string
exception to class exception.
[ 1009560 ] Fix @decorator evaluation order
From the description:
Changes in this patch:
- Change Grammar/Grammar to require
newlines between adjacent decorators.
- Fix order of evaluation of decorators
in the C (compile.c) and python
(Lib/compiler/pycodegen.py) compilers
- Add better order of evaluation check
to test_decorators.py (test_eval_order)
- Update the decorator documentation in
the reference manual (improve description
of evaluation order and update syntax
description)
and the comment:
Used Brett's evaluation order (see
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2004-August/047835.html)
(I'm checking this in for Anthony who was having problems getting SF to
talk to him)
(Code contributed by Jiwon Seo.)
The documentation portion of the patch is being re-worked and will be
checked-in soon. Likewise, PEP 289 will be updated to reflect Guido's
rationale for the design decisions on binding behavior (as described in
in his patch comments and in discussions on python-dev).
The test file, test_genexps.py, is written in doctest format and is
meant to exercise all aspects of the the patch. Further additions are
welcome from everyone. Please stress test this new feature as much as
possible before the alpha release.
A variety of changes from Michael Hudson to get the compiler working
with 2.3. The primary change is the handling of SET_LINENO:
# The set_lineno() function and the explicit emit() calls for
# SET_LINENO below are only used to generate the line number table.
# As of Python 2.3, the interpreter does not have a SET_LINENO
# instruction. pyassem treats SET_LINENO opcodes as a special case.
A few other small changes:
- Remove unused code from pycodegen and pyassem.
- Fix error handling in parsermodule. When PyParser_SimplerParseString()
fails, it sets an exception with detailed info. The parsermodule
was clobbering that exception and replacing it was a generic
"could not parse string" exception. Keep the original exception.
SF bug #522264 reported by Evelyn Mitchell.
The code included a comment about "STAR STAR" which was translated
into the code as the bogus attribute token.STARSTAR. This name never
caused an attribute error because it was never retrieved. The code
was based on an old version of the grammar that specified kwargs as
two tokens ('*' '*'). I checked as far back as 2.1 and didn't find
this production.
The fix is simple, because token.DOUBLESTAR is the only token
allowed. Also update the grammar fragment in com_arglist().
XXX I'll bet lots of other grammar fragments in comments are out of
date, probably in this module and in compile.c.
compile() becomes replacement for builtin compile()
compileFile() generates a .pyc from a .py
both are exported in __init__
compiler.parse() gets optional second argument to specify compilation
mode, e.g. single, eval, exec
Add AbstractCompileMode as parent class and Module, Expression, and
Interactive as concrete subclasses. Each corresponds to a compilation
mode.
THe AbstractCompileMode instances in turn delegate to CodeGeneration
subclasses specialized for their particular functions --
ModuleCodeGenerator, ExpressionCodeGeneration,
InteractiveCodeGenerator.
Remove the only test in the syntax module. It ends up that the
transformer must handle this error case.
In the transformer, check for a list compression in com_assign_list()
by looking for a list_for node where a comma is expected.
In pycodegen.compile() re-raise the SyntaxError rather than catching
it and exiting
Avoid if/elif/elif/else tests where the final else is supposed to
handle exactly one case instead of all other cases. When the list of
operators is extended, the catchall else treats all new operators as
the last operator in the set of tests. Instead, raise an exception if
an unexpected operator occurs.
The use of com_node() introduces a lot of extra stack frames, enough
to cause a stack overflow compiling test.test_parser with the standard
interpreter recursionlimit. The com_node() is a convenience function
that hides the dispatch details, but comes at a very high cost. It is
more efficient to dispatch directly in the callers. In these cases,
use lookup_node() and call the dispatched node directly.
Also handle yield_stmt in a way that will work with Python 2.1
(suggested by Shane Hathaway)
Fix com_NEWLINE() so that is accepts arguments, which occurs for lines like:
stmt; # note trailing semicolon
Add XXX about checking for assignment to list comps
