Bug fixes:
* Use fresh copy of globals/locals so the script being debugged can't access
the pdb namespace (e.g.: p line_prefix will no longer work).
* Remove pdb.py's path from sys.path. Having it in there is normally not a
problem, but it could prove irritating when messing with PYTHONPATH or
invoking pdb via /usr/bin/pdf.
* You can now set a breakpoint on the script being debugged, even if the script
doesn't end with a '.py' extension. Also, setting breakpoints with absolute
paths now works reliably.
Enhancements:
* Go directly to the first line of the script.
* Enter post-mortem debugging if the script being debugged doesn't catch an
exception.
* Restart the script being debugged and preserve debugger state when the script
being debugged exits.
Cleanup:
* Moved the __main__ method into a main() function.
* Kill the (undocumented, not in __all__) mainmodule/mainpyfile globals, add a
mainpyfile attribute to pdb.
Thanks Ilya Sandler for the patch!
popen2.popen2/3/4 functions can be a sequence. All texts are a variation on the
following:
On \UNIX, \var{cmd} may be a sequence, in which case arguments will be passed
directly to the program without shell intervention (as with
\function{os.spawnv()}). If \var{cmd} is a string it will be passed to the shell
(as with \function{os.system()}).
thread's id can't get duplicated, because (of course!) the current thread
is still running. The code should work either way, but reverting the
gratuitous change should make backporting easier, and gets the bad
reasoning out of 2.35's new comments.
capturing_preamble but we found a StartBoundaryNotFoundDefect, we need to
consume all lines from the current position to the EOF, which we'll set as the
epilogue of the current message. If we're not at EOF when we return from
here, the outer message's capturing_preamble assertion will fail.
can fail, check its return value, and die if it does fail.
_PyGILState_Init(): Assert that the thread doesn't already have an
association for autoTLSkey. If it does, PyThread_set_key_value() will
ignore the attempt to (re)set the association, which the code clearly
doesn't want.
code.
PyThread_set_key_value(): It's clear that this code assumes the passed-in
value isn't NULL, so document that it must not be, and assert that it
isn't. It remains unclear whether existing callers want the odd semantics
actually implemented by this function.
calling .lower() on it. This fixes the problem described in SF patch # 866982
where in the tr_TR.ISO-8859-9 locale, 'I'.lower() isn't 'i'. unicodes are
locale insensitive.
The shutils.rmtree() implementation uses an excessive amount of memory when
deleting large directory hierarchies. Before actually deleting any files, it
builds up a list of (function, filename) tuples for all the files that it is
going to remove.
