Jeremy Hylton c5007aa5c3 final patches from Neil Schemenauer for garbage collection 2000-06-30 05:02:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 632ea6e353 Bump version to 2.0b1. 2000-06-29 22:29:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 13634cf7a4 This patch addresses two main issues: (1) There exist some non-fatal
errors in some of the hash algorithms. For exmaple, in float_hash and
complex_hash a certain part of the value is not included in the hash
calculation. See Tim's, Guido's, and my discussion of this on
python-dev in May under the title "fix float_hash and complex_hash for
64-bit *nix"

(2) The hash algorithms that use pointers (e.g. func_hash, code_hash)
are universally not correct on Win64 (they assume that sizeof(long) ==
sizeof(void*))

As well, this patch significantly cleans up the hash code. It adds the
two function _Py_HashDouble and _PyHash_VoidPtr that the various
hashing routine are changed to use.

These help maintain the hash function invariant: (a==b) =>
(hash(a)==hash(b))) I have added Lib/test/test_hash.py and
Lib/test/output/test_hash to test this for some cases.

Guido van Rossum 5e3c632a90 Fredrik Lundh: get rid of warning in pythonrun.c 2000-06-26 14:37:53 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton d08b4c4524 part 2 of Neil Schemenauer's GC patches:
This patch modifies the type structures of objects that
participate in GC.  The object's tp_basicsize is increased when
GC is enabled.  GC information is prefixed to the object to
maintain binary compatibility.  GC objects also define the
tp_flag Py_TPFLAGS_GC.

Jeremy Hylton 94988067b9 Add new parser error code, E_OVERFLOW. This error is returned when
the number of children of a node exceeds the max possible value for
the short that is used to count them.  The Python runtime converts
this parser error into the SyntaxError "expression too long."

Greg Ward 9581144329 Typo fix in comment. 2000-05-28 20:29:48 +00:00
Barry Warsaw c094ac856f Now that standard exceptions are builtin, we don't need two phase init
or fini of the builtin module.

_PyBuiltin_Init_1 => _PyBuiltin_Init
_PyBuiltin_Init_2 removed
_PyBuiltin_Fini_1 removed
_PyBuiltin_Fini_2 removed

These functions are used to initialize the _exceptions module.

init_exceptions added
fini_exceptions added

Guido van Rossum b18618dab7 Vladimir Marangozov's long-awaited malloc restructuring.
For more comments, read the patches@python.org archives.
For documentation read the comments in mymalloc.h and objimpl.h.

(This is not exactly what Vladimir posted to the patches list; I've
made a few changes, and Vladimir sent me a fix in private email for a
problem that only occurs in debug mode.  I'm also holding back on his
change to main.c, which seems unnecessary to me.)

Guido van Rossum e326b1efe2 At last, this backward compatibility file bites the dust.
If you still haven't updated your extension since the Grand Renaming,
you don't deserve Python 1.6. :-)

Guido van Rossum e92e610a9e Christian Tismer -- total rewrite on trashcan code.
Improvements:
- does no longer need any extra memory
- has no relationship to tstate
- works in debug mode
- can easily be modified for free threading (hi Greg:)

Side effects:
Trashcan does change the order of object destruction.
Prevending that would be quite an immense effort, as
my attempts have shown. This version works always
the same, with debug mode or not. The slightly
changed destruction order should therefore be no problem.

Algorithm:
While the old idea of delaying the destruction of some
obejcts at a certain recursion level was kept, we now
no longer aloocate an object to hold these objects.
The delayed objects are instead chained together
via their ob_type field. The type is encoded via
ob_refcnt. When it comes to the destruction of the
chain of waiting objects, the topmost object is popped
off the chain and revived with type and refcount 1,
then it gets a normal Py_DECREF.

I am confident that this solution is near optimum
for minimizing side effects and code bloat.

Guido van Rossum 004d64f362 Marc-Andre Lemburg:

with the string.

Guido van Rossum 52c2359a59 Marc-Andre Lemburg: New exported API PyUnicode_Resize(). 2000-04-10 13:41:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 08df3ac066 Bump version to 1.6a2 -- to be released one of these days. 2000-04-06 15:01:30 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9e896b37c7 Marc-Andre's third try at this bulk patch seems to work (except that
his copy of test_contains.py seems to be broken -- the lines he
deleted were already absent).  Checkin messages:


New Unicode support for int(), float(), complex() and long().

- new APIs PyInt_FromUnicode() and PyLong_FromUnicode()
- added support for Unicode to PyFloat_FromString()
- new encoding API PyUnicode_EncodeDecimal() which converts
  Unicode to a decimal char* string (used in the above new
  APIs)
- shortcuts for calls like int(<int object>) and float(<float obj>)
- tests for all of the above

Unicode compares and contains checks:
- comparing Unicode and non-string types now works; TypeErrors
  are masked, all other errors such as ValueError during
  Unicode coercion are passed through (note that PyUnicode_Compare
  does not implement the masking -- PyObject_Compare does this)
- contains now works for non-string types too; TypeErrors are
  masked and 0 returned; all other errors are passed through

Better testing support for the standard codecs.

Misc minor enhancements, such as an alias dbcs for the mbcs codec.

Changes:
- PyLong_FromString() now applies the same error checks as
  does PyInt_FromString(): trailing garbage is reported
  as error and not longer silently ignored. The only characters
  which may be trailing the digits are 'L' and 'l' -- these
  are still silently ignored.
- string.ato?() now directly interface to int(), long() and
  float(). The error strings are now a little different, but
  the type still remains the same. These functions are now
  ready to get declared obsolete ;-)
- PyNumber_Int() now also does a check for embedded NULL chars
  in the input string; PyNumber_Long() already did this (and
  still does)

Followed by:

Looks like I've gone a step too far there... (and test_contains.py
seem to have a bug too).

I've changed back to reporting all errors in PyUnicode_Contains()
and added a few more test cases to test_contains.py (plus corrected
the join() NameError).

Guido van Rossum 24bdb0474f Marc-Andre Lemburg:
The attached patch set includes a workaround to get Python with
Unicode compile on BSDI 4.x (courtesy Thomas Wouters; the cause
is a bug in the BSDI wchar.h header file) and Python interfaces
for the MBCS codec donated by Mark Hammond.

Also included are some minor corrections w/r to the docs of
the new "es" and "es#" parser markers (use PyMem_Free() instead
of free(); thanks to Mark Hammond for finding these).

The unicodedata tests are now in a separate file
(test_unicodedata.py) to avoid problems if the module cannot
be found.

Fred Drake 0e12bcd243 Updated comment: in PyTypeObject:
/* More standard operations (at end for binary compatibility) */

should now be:

	/* More standard operations (here for binary compatibility) */

since they're no longer at the end!

Barry Warsaw 51ac58039f On 17-Mar-2000, Marc-Andre Lemburg said:
Attached you find an update of the Unicode implementation.

    The patch is against the current CVS version. I would appreciate
    if someone with CVS checkin permissions could check the changes
    in.

    The patch contains all bugs and patches sent this week and also
    fixes a leak in the codecs code and a bug in the free list code
    for Unicode objects (which only shows up when compiling Python
    with Py_DEBUG; thanks to MarkH for spotting this one).

Guido van Rossum d0d366b5e6 Marc-Andre Lemburg: add declaration for PyUnicode_Contains(). 2000-03-13 23:22:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d724b23420 Christian Tismer's "trashcan" patch:
Added wrapping macros to dictobject.c, listobject.c, tupleobject.c,
frameobject.c, traceback.c that safely prevends core dumps
on stack overflow. Macros and functions in object.c, object.h.
The method is an "elevator destructor" that turns cascading
deletes into tail recursive behavior when some limit is hit.
