This commit fixes a regression that sneaked into Python 3.3 where importlib
was not respecting -E when checking for the PYTHONCASEOK environment variable.
importlib._bootstrap._get_sourcefile().
Thanks to its only use by the C API, it was never properly tested
until now.
Thanks to Neal Norwitz for discovering the bug and Madison May for the patch.
importlib.machinery.FileFinder when the directory has become
unreadable or a file. This brings semantics in line with Python 3.2
import.
Reported and diagnosed by David Pritchard.
fromlist of __import__ propagate.
The problem previously was that if something listed in fromlist didn't
exist then that's okay. The fix for that was too broad in terms of
catching ImportError.
The trick with the solution to this issue is that the proper
refactoring of import thanks to importlib doesn't allow for a way to
distinguish (portably) between an ImportError because finders couldn't
find a loader, or a loader raised the exception. In Python 3.4 the
hope is to introduce a new exception (e.g. ModuleNotFound) to make it
clean to differentiate why ImportError was raised.
When the fromlist argument is specified for __import__() and the
attribute doesn't already exist, an import is attempted. If that fails
(e.g. module doesn't exist), the ImportError will now be silenced (for
backwards-compatibility). This *does not* affect
``from ... import ...`` statements.
Thanks to Eric Snow for the patch and Simon Feltman for reporting the
regression.
state of the import system. Also make importlib.invalidate_caches()
work with sys.meta_path instead of sys.path_importer_cache to
completely separate the path-based import system from the overall
import system.
Patch by Eric Snow.
Lib/imp.py for imp.source_from_cache() instead of its own C version.
Also change PyImport_ExecCodeModuleObject() to not infer the source
path from the bytecode path like
PyImport_ExecCodeModuleWithPathnames() does. This makes the function
less magical.
This also has the side-effect of removing all uses of MAXPATHLEN in
Python/import.c which can cause failures on really long filenames.
statement (e.g. ``from distutils import msvc9compiler``) that triggers
an ImportError of its own (e.g. the non-existence of winreg), let that
exception propagate instead of raising a generic ImportError for the
module being requested (e.g. msvc9compiler).
