Guido van Rossum bffd683f73 The rest of the changes by Trent Mick and Dale Nagata for warning-free
compilation on NT Alpha.  Mostly added casts etc.

Guido van Rossum a400d8a96d Fix a bug in exec_statement() noted incidentally by Tim Peters in
PR#175 -- when exec is passed a code object, it didn't sync the locals
from the dictionary back into their fast representation.

Also took the time to remove some repetitive code there and to do the
syncing even when an exception is raised (since a partial effect
should still be synced).

Guido van Rossum 96a8fb7e99 Cleanup patches from Greg Stein:
* in import.c, #ifdef out references to dynamic loading based on
  HAVE_DYNAMIC_LOADING

* clean out the platform-specific crud from importdl.c.
  [ maybe fold this function into import.c and drop the importdl.c file? Greg.]

* change GetDynLoadFunc's "funcname" parameter to "shortname". change
  "name" to "fqname" for clarification.

* each GetDynLoadFunc now creates its own funcname value.

  WARNING: as I mentioned previously, we may run into an issue with a
  missing "_" on some platforms. Testing will show this pretty quickly,
  however.

* move pathname munging into dynload_shlib.c

Guido van Rossum 96b5ee88ee Vladimir Marangozov:
Here's a patch that avoids a warning caused by the "const char* pathname"
declaration for _PyImport_GetDynLoadFunc (in dynload_aix). The "aix_load"
function's 1st arg is prototyped as "char *pathname".

from two static tables (one standard, one provided by the platform's
dynload_*.c variant).

Guido van Rossum 22a1d3671b The old platform-specific contents of importdl.c, broken down into one
file per platform (really: per style of Dl API; e.g. all platforms
using dlopen() are grouped together in dynload_shlib.c.).

Guido van Rossum 001b9bebca Patch by Vladimir Marangozov, inspired by a bug report from Gary
Duzan, for AIX, to support C++ objects with static initializers, when
using the genuine IBM C++ compiler (namely xlC/xlC_r).

Guido van Rossum ba98a42a0f Change the last PyErr_Format %s format to %.400s. 1999-11-15 19:29:33 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 25da5bebd8 Fix PR117. The error message is "keywords must be strings". Perhaps
not as descriptive as what Barry suggests, but this also catches the
(in my opinion important) case where some other C code besides apply()
constructs a kwdict that doesn't have the right format.  All the other
possibilities of getting it wrong (non-dict, wrong keywords etc) are
already caught so this makes sense to check here.

Guido van Rossum be2033697f In PySys_GetObject(), it's possible that tstate->interp->sysdict is

Guido van Rossum 933c91ebcf Vladimir Marangozov fixes an AIX-specific problem, writing:
"""
Following up Robin Dunn's troubles with freeze, here's a patch that
fixes an oddity regarding the import logic of shared modules on AIX.

Symbol resolution of shared modules is now handled properly for the cases
when the python library is linked to a binary with an arbitrary name.
This includes the standard python[version] executable, but also applications
that are embedding the python core (i.e. linked with libpython[version].a,
the latter being static or shared).

Guido van Rossum 7c85ab829d Marc-Andre Lemburg discovered that the switch from .pyc to .pyo files,
done by _PyImport_Init(), comes to late to affect the import of
exceptions.py by _PyBuiltin_Init_2().  Move  _PyImport_Init() up few lines.

Guido van Rossum 8746082175 Patch by Tim Peters:
Introduce a new builtin exception, UnboundLocalError, raised when ceval.c
tries to retrieve or delete a local name that isn't bound to a value.
Currently raises NameError, which makes this behavior a FAQ since the same
error is raised for "missing" global names too:  when the user has a global
of the same name as the unbound local, NameError makes no sense to them.
Even in the absence of shadowing, knowing whether a bogus name is local or
global is a real aid to quick understanding.

Example:

D:\src\PCbuild>type local.py
x = 42

def f():
    print x
    x = 13
    return x

f()

D:\src\PCbuild>python local.py
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "local.py", line 8, in ?
    f()
  File "local.py", line 4, in f
    print x
UnboundLocalError: x

D:\src\PCbuild>

Note that UnboundLocalError is a subclass of NameError, for compatibility
with existing class-exception code that may be trying to catch this as a
NameError.  Unfortunately, I see no way to make this wholly compatible
with -X (see comments in bltinmodule.c):  under -X, [UnboundLocalError
is an alias for NameError --GvR].

[The ceval.c patch differs slightly from the second version that Tim
submitted; I decided not to raise UnboundLocalError for DELETE_NAME,
only for DELETE_LOCAL.  DELETE_NAME is only generated at the module
level, and since at that level a NameError is raised for referencing
an undefined name, it should also be raised for deleting one.]

Guido van Rossum 1d5ad90c1c CRITICAL PATCH!
We occasionally received reports from people getting "invalid tstate"
crashes (this is a fatal error in PyThreadState_Delete()).  Finally
several people were able to reproduce it reliably and Tim Peters
discovered that there is a race condition when multiple threads are
calling this function without holding the global interpreter lock (the
function may be called without holding that).

Solved the race condition by adding a lock around the mutating uses of
interp->tstate_head.  Tim and Jonathan Giddy have run tests that make
it likely that this fixes the crashes -- although Tim hasn't heard
from the person who reported the original problem.

Guido van Rossum 7f85186921 # Darn! Local variable l declared but not used in abstract_issubclass(). 1999-06-17 19:12:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 668213d3b8 Patch by Jim Fulton (code style tweaked a bit) to support
ExtensionClasses in isinstance() and issubclass().

  - abstract instance and class protocols are used *only* in those
    cases that would generate errors before the patch.  That is, there's
    no penalty for the normal case.

  - instance protocol: an object smells like an instance if it
    has a __class__ attribute that smells like a class.

  - class protocol: an object smells like a class if it has a
    __bases__ attribute that is a tuple with elements that
    smell like classes (although not all elements may actually get
    sniffed ;).

Guido van Rossum 495894ee66 While I can't really test this thoroughly, Pat Knight and the Solaris

I'll do that.

Guido van Rossum 124eff0225 Patch by Tim Peters to improve the range checks for range() and
xrange(), especially for platforms where int and long are different
sizes (so sys.maxint isn't actually the theoretical limit for the
length of a list, but the largest C int is -- sys.maxint is the
largest Python int, which is actually a C long).
