slot_tp_del(), but while the latter had to cater to types
that don't participate in GC, we know that generators do.
That allows strengthing an assert().
- In functions where we already hold the same object in differently typed
pointers, use the correctly typed pointer instead of casting the other
pointer a second time.
problems: first, PyGen_NeedsFinalizing() had an off-by-one bug that
prevented it from ever saying a generator didn't need finalizing, and
second, frame objects cleared themselves in a way that caused their
owning generator to think they were still executable, causing a double
deallocation of objects on the value stack if there was still a loop
on the block stack. This revision also removes some unnecessary
close() operations from test_generators that are now appropriately
handled by the cycle collector.
that are suspended outside of any try/except/finally blocks to be
garbage collected even if they are part of a cycle. Generators that
suspend inside of an active try/except or try/finally block (including
those created by a ``with`` statement) are still not GC-able if they
are part of a cycle, however.
added message attribute compared to the previous version of Exception. It is
also a new-style class, making all exceptions now new-style. KeyboardInterrupt
and SystemExit inherit from BaseException directly. String exceptions now
raise DeprecationWarning.
Applies patch 1104669, and closes bugs 1012952 and 518846.
* Allow the 3rd argument to generator.throw() to be None.
The 'raise' statement does the same, and anyway it follows the
general policy that optional arguments of built-ins should, when
reasonable, have a default value specifiable from Python.
was never called during interpreter shutdown GC, so the f_back!=NULL
assertion was correct. Now that generators get close()d during GC,
the assertion was being triggered because the generator close() was being
called as the top-level frame. However, nothing actually is broken by
this; it's just that the condition was unexpected in previous Python
versions.
