handlers "return void", according to ANSI C.
Removed the new Py_RETURN_FROM_SIGNAL_HANDLER macro.
Left RETSIGTYPE in the config stuff, because it's not clear to
me that others aren't relying on it (e.g., extension modules).
#if RETSIGTYPE != void
That isn't C, and MSVC properly refuses to compile it.
Introduced new Py_RETURN_FROM_SIGNAL_HANDLER macro in pyport.h
to expand to the correct thing based on RETSIGTYPE. However,
only void is ANSI! Do we still have platforms that return int?
The Unix config mess appears to #define RETSIGTYPE by magic
without being asked to, so I assume it's "a problem" across
Unices still.
to return something if RETSIGTYPE isn't void, in functions that are defined
to return RETSIGTYPE. Work around an argumentlist mismatch ('void' vs.
'void *') by using a static wrapper function.
and a couple of functions that were missed in the previous batches. Not
terribly tested, but very carefully scrutinized, three times.
All these were found by the little findkrc.py that I posted to python-dev,
which means there might be more lurking. Cases such as this:
long
func(a, b)
long a;
long b; /* flagword */
{
and other cases where the last ; in the argument list isn't followed by a
newline and an opening curly bracket. Regexps to catch all are welcome, of
course ;)
comments, docstrings or error messages. I fixed two minor things in
test_winreg.py ("didn't" -> "Didn't" and "Didnt" -> "Didn't").
There is a minor style issue involved: Guido seems to have preferred English
grammar (behaviour, honour) in a couple places. This patch changes that to
American, which is the more prominent style in the source. I prefer English
myself, so if English is preferred, I'd be happy to supply a patch myself ;)
* There was no error reported if the .read() method returns a non-string
* If read() returned too much data, the buffer would be overflowed causing a
core dump
* Used strncpy, not memcpy, which seems incorrect if there are embedded \0s.
* The args and bytes objects were leaked
The first two warnings seem harmless enough,
but the last one looks like a potential bug: an
uninitialized int is returned on error. (I also
ended up reformatting some of the code,
because it was hard to read.)
about int size mismatches at two calls to s_rand. Stuffed in
casts to make the code do what it did before but w/o warnings --
although unclear that's correct!
