Fred Drake bc875f5a36 Allocating a new weakref object can cause existing weakref objects for
the same object to be collected by the cyclic GC support if they are
only referenced by a cycle.  If the weakref being collected was one of
the weakrefs without callbacks, some local variables for the
constructor became invalid and have to be re-computed.

The test caused a segfault under a debug build without the fix applied.

Fred Drake 6a2852cd48 Fix bug in interpretation of the "callback" argument in the constructors for
weakref ref and proxy objects; None was not being treated as identical to
NULL, though it was documented as equivalent.

Tim Peters 403a203223 SF bug 839548: Bug in type's GC handling causes segfaults.
Also SF patch 843455.

This is a critical bugfix.
I'll backport to 2.3 maint, but not beyond that.  The bugs this fixes
have been there since weakrefs were introduced.

Fred Drake fe89cc186c Remove proxy_print(), since that caused an inconsistency between
"print repr(proxy(a))" and "proxy(a)" at an interactive prompt.
Closes SF bug #722763.

Raymond Hettinger d693a81595 Fix SF 762891: "del p[key]" on proxy object raises SystemError() 2003-06-30 04:18:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c1f6e8cbc1 - The repr() of a weakref object now shows the __name__ attribute of
the referenced object, if it has one.

Also use %p to format pointers consistently, and use <weakproxy ...>
in proxy_repr(), to match the type name.

Fred Drake f16c3dc81b Add support for the iterator protocol to weakref proxy objects.
Part of fixing SF bug #591704.

Neil Schemenauer 38a8916134 Remove weakref free list. This has the side effect of fixing a memory
management bug.  Also, move some duplicated code into the new_weakref
fucntion.

Fred Drake 2a908f6b7b proxy_compare(): Make sure that we unwrap both objects being compared if
both are proxy objects.

Fred Drake ef8ebd1e74 Make sure that when we invoke callback functions associated with weak
references, we do not allow any outstanding exceptions "leak" into the
callback's execution state.
This closes SF bug #478534.

Barry Warsaw d586756dc5 weakref_repr(), proxy_repr(): Conversion of sprintf() to
PyOS_snprintf() for buffer overrun avoidance.

Fred Drake 31f4d1fa4b Remove an unnecessary check for NULL. 2001-10-18 19:21:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 73006d0237 When weakref proxies are involved in binary & ternary slot operations,
the left-hand operand may not be the proxy in all cases.  If it isn't,
we end up doing two things: a) unwrapping something that isn't a
PyWeakReference (later resulting in a core dump) and b) passing a
proxy as the right-hand operand anyway, even though that can't be
handled by the actual handler (maybe eventually causing a core dump).

This is fixed by always unwrapping all the proxies involved before
passing anything to the actual handler.

Fred Drake 8844d5264f The weak reference implementation, separated from the weakref module. 2001-10-05 21:52:26 +00:00
