Historically, -m added the empty string as sys.path
zero, meaning it resolved imports against the current
working directory, the same way -c and the interactive
prompt do.
This changes the sys.path initialisation to add the
*starting* working directory as sys.path[0] instead,
such that changes to the working directory while the
program is running will have no effect on imports
when using the -m switch.
(cherry picked from commit d5d9e02dd3)
* Use wider types (int => Py_ssize_t) to avoid integer overflows.
* Fix gc.get_freeze_count(): use Py_ssize_t type rather than int, since gc_list_size() returns a Py_ssize_t.
Modify locale.localeconv(), time.tzname, os.strerror() and other
functions to ignore the UTF-8 Mode: always use the current locale
encoding.
Changes:
* Add _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx(). On decoding or
encoding error, they return the position of the error and an error
message which are used to raise Unicode errors in
PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale().
* Replace _Py_DecodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_DecodeLocaleEx().
* PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() now uses _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() for all
cases, especially for the strict error handler.
* Add _Py_DecodeUTF8Ex(): return more information on decoding error
and supports the strict error handler.
* Rename _Py_EncodeUTF8_surrogateescape() to _Py_EncodeUTF8Ex().
* Replace _Py_EncodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_EncodeLocaleEx().
* Ignore the UTF-8 mode to encode/decode localeconv(), strerror()
and time zone name.
* Remove PyUnicode_DecodeLocale(), PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize()
and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale() now ignore the UTF-8 mode: always use
the "current" locale.
* Remove _PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocale(),
_PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocaleAndSize() and
_PyUnicode_EncodeCurrentLocale().
Add a new _Py_FindEnvConfigValue() function: code shared between
Windows and Unix implementations of _PyPathConfig_Calculate() to read
the pyenv.cfg file.
_Py_FindEnvConfigValue() now uses _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape()
instead of using a Python Unicode string, the Python API must not be
used early during Python initialization. Same change in Unix
search_for_exec_prefix(): use _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape().
Cleanup also encode_current_locale(): PyMem_RawFree/PyMem_Free can be
called with NULL.
Fix also "NUL byte" => "NULL byte" typo.
Merge _PyCoreConfig_ReadEnv() into _PyCoreConfig_Read(), and
_Py_CommandLineDetails usage is now restricted to pymain_cmdline().
Changes:
* _PyCoreConfig: Add nxoption, xoptions, nwarnoption and warnoptions
* Add _PyCoreConfig.program: argv[0] or ""
* Move filename, command, module and xoptions from
_Py_CommandLineDetails to _PyMain. xoptions _Py_OptList becomes
(int, wchar_t**) list.
* Add pymain_cmdline() function
* Rename copy_argv() to copy_wstrlist(). Rename clear_argv() to
clear_wstrlist(). Remove _Py_OptList structure: use (int,
wchar_t**) list instead.
* Rename pymain_set_flag_from_env() to pymain_get_env_flag()
* Rename pymain_set_flags_from_env() to pymain_get_env_flags()
* _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() now creates the warnoptions from
_PyCoreConfig.warnoptions
* Inline pymain_add_warning_dev_mode() and
pymain_add_warning_bytes_flag() into config_init_warnoptions()
* Inline pymain_get_program_name() into _PyCoreConfig_Read()
* _Py_CommandLineDetails: Replace warning_options with nwarnoption
and warnoptions. Replace env_warning_options with nenv_warnoption
and env_warnoptions.
* pymain_warnings_envvar() now has a single implementation for
Windows and Unix: use config_get_env_var_dup() to also get the
variable as wchar_t* on Unix.
_PyMainInterpreterConfig now contains Python objects, whereas
_PyCoreConfig contains wchar_t* strings.
Core config:
* Rename _PyMainInterpreterConfig_ReadEnv() to _PyCoreConfig_ReadEnv()
* Move 3 strings from _PyMainInterpreterConfig to _PyCoreConfig:
module_search_path_env, home, program_name.
* Add _PyCoreConfig_Clear()
* _PyPathConfig_Calculate() now takes core config rather than main
config
* _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() now requires also a core config
Main config:
* Add _PyMainInterpreterConfig.module_search_path: sys.path list
* Add _PyMainInterpreterConfig.argv: sys.argv list
* _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() now computes module_search_path
Changes:
* Split _PySys_SetArgvWithError() into subfunctions for Py_Main():
* Create the Python list object
* Set sys.argv to the list
* Compute argv0
* Prepend argv0 to sys.path
* Add _PyPathConfig_ComputeArgv0()
* Remove _PySys_SetArgvWithError()
* Py_Main() now splits the code to compute sys.argv/path0 and the
code to update the sys module: add pymain_compute_argv()
subfunction.
_PyPathConfig_Init() now also initialize home and program_name:
* Rename existing _PyPathConfig_Init() to _PyPathConfig_Calculate().
Add a new _PyPathConfig_Init() function in pathconfig.c which
handles the _Py_path_config variable and call
_PyPathConfig_Calculate().
* Add home and program_name fields to _PyPathConfig.home
* _PyPathConfig_Init() now initialize home and program_name
from main_config
* Py_SetProgramName(), Py_SetPythonHome() and Py_GetPythonHome() now
calls Py_FatalError() on failure, instead of silently ignoring
failures.
* config_init_home() now gets directly _Py_path_config.home to only
get the value set by Py_SetPythonHome(), or NULL if
Py_SetPythonHome() was not called.
* config_get_program_name() now gets directly
_Py_path_config.program_name to only get the value set by
Py_SetProgramName(), or NULL if Py_SetProgramName() was not called.
* pymain_init_python() doesn't call Py_SetProgramName() anymore,
_PyPathConfig_Init() now always sets the program name
* Call _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() in
pymain_parse_cmdline_envvars_impl() to control the memory allocator
* C API documentation: it's no more safe to call Py_GetProgramName()
before Py_Initialize().
* Factorize code from PC/getpathp.c and Modules/getpath.c to remove
duplicated code
* rename pathconfig_clear() to _PyPathConfig_Clear()
* Inline _PyPathConfig_Fini() in pymain_impl() and then remove it,
since it's a oneliner
