Thomas Wouters 568f1d0eed Py_ssize_t issue; repr()'ing a very large string would result in a teensy
string, because of a cast to int.

Thomas Wouters dc5f808cbc Make s.replace() work with explicit counts exceeding 2Gb. 2006-04-19 15:38:01 +00:00
Thomas Wouters 4abb3660ca Use Py_ssize_t to hold the 'width' argument to the ljust, rjust, center and
zfill stringmethods, so they can create strings larger than 2Gb on 64bit
systems (even win64.) The unicode versions of these methods already did this
right.

Anthony Baxter a62862120d More low-hanging fruit. Still need to re-arrange some code (or find a better

solution.

Neal Norwitz 2aa9a5dfdd Use macro versions instead of function versions when we already know the type.
This will hopefully get rid of some Coverity warnings, be a hint to
developers, and be marginally faster.

Some asserts were added when the type is currently known, but depends
on values from another function.

Jeremy Hylton af68c874a6 Add const to several API functions that take char *.
In C++, it's an error to pass a string literal to a char* function
without a const_cast().  Rather than require every C++ extension
module to put a cast around string literals, fix the API to state the
const-ness.

I focused on parts of the API where people usually pass literals:
PyArg_ParseTuple() and friends, Py_BuildValue(), PyMethodDef, the type
slots, etc.  Predictably, there were a large set of functions that
needed to be fixed as a result of these changes.  The most pervasive
change was to make the keyword args list passed to
PyArg_ParseTupleAndKewords() to be a const char *kwlist[].

One cast was required as a result of the changes:  A type object
mallocs the memory for its tp_doc slot and later frees it.
PyTypeObject says that tp_doc is const char *; but if the type was
created by type_new(), we know it is safe to cast to char *.

Raymond Hettinger 3296e696db SF bug #1224347: int/long unification and hex()
Hex longs now print with lowercase letters like their int counterparts.
2005-06-29 23:29:56 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 57e7447c44 * Beef-up tests for str.count().
* Speed-up str.count() by using memchr() to fly between first char matches.
2005-02-20 09:54:53 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 7cbf1bcb3e * Beef-up testing of str.__contains__() and str.find().
* Speed-up "x in y" where x has more than one character.

The existing code made excessive calls to the expensive memcmp() function.
The new code uses memchr() to rapidly find a start point for memcmp().
In addition to knowing that the first character is a match, the new code
also checks that the last character is a match.  This significantly reduces
the incidence of false starts (saving memcmp() calls and making quadratic
behavior less likely).

Improves the timings on:
    python -m timeit -r7 -s"x='a'*1000" "'ab' in x"
    python -m timeit -r7 -s"x='a'*1000" "'bc' in x"

Once this code has proven itself, then string_find_internal() should refer
to it rather than running its own version.  Also, something similar may
apply to unicode objects.

Raymond Hettinger 674f241e9c SF Patch #1007087: Return new string for single subclass joins (Bug #1001011)

Armin Rigo 618fbf5469 This was quite a dark bug in my recent in-place string concatenation
hack: it would resize *interned* strings in-place!  This occurred because
their reference counts do not have their expected value -- stringobject.c
hacks them.  Mea culpa.

Jeremy Hylton 4c989ddc9c Subclasses of string can no longer be interned. The semantics of
interning were not clear here -- a subclass could be mutable, for
example -- and had bugs.  Explicitly interning a subclass of string
via intern() will raise a TypeError.  Internal operations that attempt
to intern a string subclass will have no effect.

Added a few tests to test_builtin that includes the old buggy code and
verifies that calls like PyObject_SetAttr() don't fail.  Perhaps these
tests should have gone in test_string.

Skip Montanaro ac4ea13a3a There are places in Python which assume bytes have 8-bits. Formalize that a

UCHAR_MAX if it's not defined as the old test did.)

Guido van Rossum 6c9e130524 - Removed FutureWarnings related to hex/oct literals and conversions
and left shifts.  (Thanks to Kalle Svensson for SF patch 849227.)
  This addresses most of the remaining semantic changes promised by
  PEP 237, except for repr() of a long, which still shows the trailing
  'L'.  The PEP appears to promise warnings for operations that
  changed semantics compared to Python 2.3, but this is not
  implemented; we've suffered through enough warnings related to
  hex/oct literals and I think it's best to be silent now.

Raymond Hettinger 5d5e7c0e34 SF patch #664192 bug #661913: inconsistent error messages between string

Patch by Christopher Blunck.
2003-01-15 05:32:57 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 0a2f849b79 GvR's idea to use memset() for the most common special case of repeating
a single character.  Shaves another 10% off the running time by avoiding
the lg2(N) loops and cache effects for the other cases.
2003-01-06 22:42:41 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 698258a199 Optimize string_repeat.
Christian Tismer pointed out the high cost of the loop overhead and
function call overhead for 'c' * n where n is large.  Accordingly,
the new code only makes lg2(n) loops.

Interestingly, 'c' * 1000 * 1000 ran a bit faster with old code.  At some
point, the loop and function call overhead became cheaper than invalidating
the cache with lengthy memcpys.  But for more typical sizes of n, the new
code runs much faster and for larger values of n it runs only a bit slower.

Neal Norwitz 80a1bf4b5d Fix SF # 635969, No error "not all arguments converted"
When mwh added extended slicing, strings and unicode became mappings.

This fix raises an exception again when there are no formats
and % with a string value.

Martin v. Löwis a5f0907d79 Back out #479898. 2002-10-11 05:37:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 049cd6b563 Fix a nasty endcase reported by Armin Rigo in SF bug 618623:
'%2147483647d' % -123 segfaults.  This was because an integer overflow
in a comparison caused the string resize to be skipped.  After fixing
the overflow, this could call _PyString_Resize() with a negative size,
so I (1) test for that and raise MemoryError instead; (2) also added a
test for negative newsize to _PyString_Resize(), raising SystemError
as for all bad arguments.

An identical bug existed in unicodeobject.c, of course.

Will backport to 2.2.2.
2002-10-11 00:43:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8052f8921e Undo this part of the previous checkin:

because PyObject_Repr() and PyObject_Str() ensure that this can never
happen.  Added a helpful comment instead.
2002-10-09 19:14:30 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b00c07f038 The string formatting code has a test to switch to Unicode when %s
sees a Unicode argument.  Unfortunately this test was also executed
for %r, because %s and %r share almost all of their code.  This meant
that, if u is a unicode object while repr(u) is an 8-bit string
containing ASCII characters, '%r' % u is a *unicode* string containing
only ASCII characters!

Fixed by executing the test only for %s.

Also fixed an error message -- %s argument has non-string str()
doesn't make sense for %r, so the error message now differentiates
between %s and %r.

Guido van Rossum 45ec02aed1 SF patch 576101, by Oren Tirosh: alternative implementation of
interning.  I modified Oren's patch significantly, but the basic idea
and most of the implementation is unchanged.  Interned strings created
with PyString_InternInPlace() are now mortal, and you must keep a
reference to the resulting string around; use the new function
PyString_InternImmortal() to create immortal interned strings.

Guido van Rossum e3a8e7ed1d Call me anal, but there was a particular phrase that was speading to
comments everywhere that bugged me: /* Foo is inlined */ instead of
/* Inline Foo */.  Somehow the "is inlined" phrase always confused me
for half a second (thinking, "No it isn't" until I added the missing
"here").  The new phrase is hopefully unambiguous.

Guido van Rossum 078151da90 Implement stage B0 of PEP 237: add warnings for operations that
currently return inconsistent results for ints and longs; in
particular: hex/oct/%u/%o/%x/%X of negative short ints, and x<<n that
either loses bits or changes sign.  (No warnings for repr() of a long,
though that will also change to lose the trailing 'L' eventually.)

This introduces some warnings in the test suite; I'll take care of
those later.

Jeremy Hylton 938ace69a0 staticforward bites the dust.
The staticforward define was needed to support certain broken C
compilers (notably SCO ODT 3.0, perhaps early AIX as well) botched the
static keyword when it was used with a forward declaration of a static
initialized structure.  Standard C allows the forward declaration with
static, and we've decided to stop catering to broken C compilers.  (In
fact, we expect that the compilers are all fixed eight years later.)

I'm leaving staticforward and statichere defined in object.h as
static.  This is only for backwards compatibility with C extensions
that might still use it.

XXX I haven't updated the documentation.
2002-07-17 16:30:39 +00:00
Tim Peters 3459251d5a object.h special-build macro minefield: renamed all the new lexical
helper macros to something saner, and used them appropriately in other
files too, to reduce #ifdef blocks.

classobject.c, instance_dealloc():  One of my worst Python Memories is
trying to fix this routine a few years ago when COUNT_ALLOCS was defined
but Py_TRACE_REFS wasn't.  The special-build code here is way too
complicated.  Now it's much simpler.  Difference:  in a Py_TRACE_REFS
build, the instance is no longer in the doubly-linked list of live
objects while its __del__ method is executing, and that may be visible
via sys.getobjects() called from a __del__ method.  Tough -- the object
is presumed dead while its __del__ is executing anyway, and not calling
_Py_NewReference() at the start allows enormous code simplification.

typeobject.c, call_finalizer():  The special-build instance_dealloc()
pain apparently spread to here too via cut-'n-paste, and this is much
simpler now too.  In addition, I didn't understand why this routine
was calling _PyObject_GC_TRACK() after a resurrection, since there's no
plausible way _PyObject_GC_UNTRACK() could have been called on the
object by this point.  I suspect it was left over from pasting the
instance_delloc() code.  Instead asserted that the object is still
tracked.  Caution:  I suspect we don't have a test that actually
exercises the subtype_dealloc() __del__-resurrected-me code.

Guido van Rossum cacfc07d08 - A new type object, 'string', is added. This is a common base type
for 'str' and 'unicode', and can be used instead of
  types.StringTypes, e.g. to test whether something is "a string":
  isinstance(x, string) is True for Unicode and 8-bit strings.  This
  is an abstract base class and cannot be instantiated directly.

Tim Peters 5de9842b34 Repair widespread misuse of _PyString_Resize. Since it's clear people
don't understand how this function works, also beefed up the docs.  The
most common usage error is of this form (often spread out across gotos):

	if (_PyString_Resize(&s, n) < 0) {
		Py_DECREF(s);
		s = NULL;
		goto outtahere;
	}

The error is that if _PyString_Resize runs out of memory, it automatically
decrefs the input string object s (which also deallocates it, since its
refcount must be 1 upon entry), and sets s to NULL.  So if the "if"
branch ever triggers, it's an error to call Py_DECREF(s):  s is already
NULL!  A correct way to write the above is the simpler (and intended)

	if (_PyString_Resize(&s, n) < 0)
		goto outtahere;

Bugfix candidate.

PEP 285.  Everything described in the PEP is here, and there is even
some documentation.  I had to fix 12 unit tests; all but one of these
were printing Boolean outcomes that changed from 0/1 to False/True.
(The exception is test_unicode.py, which did a type(x) == type(y)
style comparison.  I could've fixed that with a single line using
issubtype(x, type(y)), but instead chose to be explicit about those
places where a bool is expected.

Still to do: perhaps more documentation; change standard library

object.c, PyObject_Str:  Don't try to optimize anything except exact

same as non-str objects.  This allows overrides of tp_str to take
effect.

  object, get one from PyObject_Str.

+ string_str (str's tp_str):  Make a genuine-string copy of the object if

Guido van Rossum 9475a2310d Enable GC for new-style instances. This touches lots of files, since
many types were subclassable but had a xxx_dealloc function that
called PyObject_DEL(self) directly instead of deferring to
self->ob_type->tp_free(self).  It is permissible to set tp_free in the
type object directly to _PyObject_Del, for non-GC types, or to
_PyObject_GC_Del, for GC types.  Still, PyObject_DEL was a tad faster,
so I'm fearing that our pystone rating is going down again.  I'm not
sure if doing something like

void xxx_dealloc(PyObject *self)
{
	if (PyXxxCheckExact(self))
		PyObject_DEL(self);
	else
		self->ob_type->tp_free(self);
}

is any faster than always calling the else branch, so I haven't
attempted that -- however those types whose own dealloc is fancier
(int, float, unicode) do use this pattern.

Tim Peters 111f60964e If interning an instance of a string subclass, intern a real string object

Barry Warsaw 7c47beb860 Two improvements suggested by Greg Stein:
PyString_FromFormatV(): In the final resize at the end, we can use
    PyString_AS_STRING() since we know the object is a string and can
    avoid the typechecking.

PyString_FromFormat(): GS sez: "For safety/propriety, you should call

Tim Peters 6af5bbb565 PyString_FromFormatV: Massage platform %p output to match what gcc does,
at least in the first two characters.  %p is ill-defined, and people will
forever commit bad tests otherwise ("bad" in the sense that they fall
over (at least on Windows) for lack of a leading '0x'; 5 of the 7 tests
in test_repr.py failed on Windows for that reason this time around).
2001-08-25 03:02:28 +00:00
Barry Warsaw dadace004b PyString_FromFormat() and PyString_FromFormatV(): Largely ripped from
PyErr_Format() these new C API methods can be used instead of
    sprintf()'s into hardcoded char* buffers.  This allows us to fix
    many situation where long package, module, or class names get
    truncated in reprs.

    PyString_FromFormat() is the varargs variety.
    PyString_FromFormatV() is the va_list variety

    Original PyErr_Format() code was modified to allow %p and %ld
    expansions.

    Many reprs were converted to this, checkins coming soo.  Not
    changed: complex_repr(), float_repr(), float_print(), float_str(),
    int_repr().  There may be other candidates not yet converted.

pprint.pprint() in 2.2 <wink>.

I don't consider this a bugfix candidate, as it's a performance boost.

Added _PyString_Join() to the internal string API.  If we want that in the

asserts.

Marc-André Lemburg 2d9204199f This patch changes the way the string .encode() method works slightly
and introduces a new method .decode().

The major change is that strg.encode() will no longer try to convert
Unicode returns from the codec into a string, but instead pass along
the Unicode object as-is. The same is now true for all other codec
return types. The underlying C APIs were changed accordingly.

Note that even though this does have the potential of breaking
existing code, the chances are low since conversion from Unicode
previously took place using the default encoding which is normally
set to ASCII rendering this auto-conversion mechanism useless for
most Unicode encodings.

The good news is that you can now use .encode() and .decode() with
much greater ease and that the door was opened for better accessibility
of the builtin codecs.

As demonstration of the new feature, the patch includes a few new
codecs which allow string to string encoding and decoding (rot13,
hex, zip, uu, base64).

Tim Peters cf5ad5d6f6 My change to string_item() left an extra reference to each 1-character

2001-05-09 00:24:55 +00:00
Tim Peters 5b4d477568 Intern 1-character strings as soon as they're created. As-is, they aren't
interned when created, so the cached versions generally aren't ever
interned.  With the patch, the
		Py_INCREF(t);
		*p = t;
		Py_DECREF(s);
		return;
indirection block in PyString_InternInPlace() is never executed during a
full run of the test suite, but was executed very many times before.  So
I'm trading more work when creating one-character strings for doing less
work later.  Note that the "more work" here can happen at most 256 times
per program run, so it's trivial.  The same reasoning accounts for the
patch's simplification of string_item (the new version can call
PyString_FromStringAndSize() no more than 256 times per run, so there's
no point to inlining that stuff -- if we were serious about saving time
here, we'd pre-initialize the characters vector so that no runtime testing
at all was needed!).

Tim Peters 2cfe368283 Make unicode.join() work nice with iterators. This also required a change
to string.join(), so that when the latter figures out in midstream that
it really needs unicode.join() instead, unicode.join() can actually get
all the sequence elements (i.e., there's no guarantee that the sequence
passed to string.join() can be iterated over *again* by unicode.join(),
so string.join() must not pass on the original sequence object anymore).

C std says %#x and %#X conversion of 0 do not add the 0x/0X base marker.
Metrowerks apparently does.  Mark Favas reported the same bug under a
Compaq compiler on Tru64 Unix, but no other libc broken in this respect
is known (known to be OK under MSVC and gcc).
So just try the damn thing at runtime and see what the platform does.
Note that we've always had bugs here, but never knew it before because
a relevant test case didn't exist before 2.1.

when it does %#x, and taking away that *Python* produced 0x0 when
formatting 0L (the "long" flavor of 0) under %#x itself.  But after talking
with Guido, we agreed it would be better to supply 0x for the short int
case too, despite that it's inconsistent with C, because C is inconsistent
with itself and with Python's hex(0) (plus, while "%#x" % 0 didn't work
before, "%#x" % 0L *did*, and returned "0x0").  Similarly for %#X conversion.

Tim Peters 711088d9b8 Fix for SF bug #415514: "%#x" % 0 caused assertion failure/abort.
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=415514&group_id=5470&atid=105470
For short ints, Python defers to the platform C library to figure out what
%#x should do.  The code asserted that the platform C returned a string
beginning with "0x".  However, that's not true when-- and only when --the
*value* being formatted is 0.  Changed the code to live with C's inconsistency
here.  In the meantime, the problem does not arise if you format a long 0 (0L)
instead.  However, that's because the code *we* wrote to do %#x conversions on
longs produces a leading "0x" regardless of value.  That's probably wrong too:
we should drop leading "0x", for consistency with C, when (& only when) formatting
0L.  So I changed the long formatting code to do that too.

Tim Peters 19fe14e76a Derivative of patch #102549, "simpler, faster(!) implementation of string.join".
Also fixes two long-standing bugs (present in 2.0):
1. .join() didn't check that the result size fit in an int.
2. string.join(s) when len(s)==1 returned s[0] regardless of s[0]'s
   type; e.g., "".join([3]) returned 3 (overly optimistic optimization).
I resisted a keen temptation to make .join() apply str() automagically.

Marc-André Lemburg 3a645e4dd4 Added checks to prevent PyUnicode_Count() from dumping core
in case the parameters are out of bounds and fixes error handling
for .count(), .startswith() and .endswith() for the case of
mixed string/Unicode objects.

This patch adds Python style index semantics to PyUnicode_Count()
indices (including the special handling of negative indices).

The patch is an extended version of patch #103249 submitted
by Michael Hudson (mwh) on SF. It also includes new test cases.

Tim Peters 38fd5b6413 Derived from Martin's SF patch 110609: support unbounded ints in %d,i,u,x,X,o formats.
Note a curious extension to the std C rules:  x, X and o formatting can never produce
a sign character in C, so the '+' and ' ' flags are meaningless for them.  But
unbounded ints *can* produce a sign character under these conversions (no fixed-
width bitstring is wide enough to hold all negative values in 2's-comp form).  So
these flags become meaningful in Python when formatting a Python long which is too
big to fit in a C long.  This required shuffling around existing code, which hacked
x and X conversions to death when both the '#' and '0' flags were specified:  the
hacks weren't strong enough to deal with the simultaneous possibility of the ' ' or
'+' flags too, since signs were always meaningless before for x and X conversions.
Isomorphic shuffling was required in unicodeobject.c.
Also added dozens of non-trivial new unbounded-int test cases to test_format.py.

Marc-André Lemburg d1ba443206 This patch adds a new Python C API called PyString_AsStringAndSize()
which implements the automatic conversion from Unicode to a string
object using the default encoding.

The new API is then put to use to have eval() and exec accept
Unicode objects as code parameter. This closes bugs #110924
and #113890.

As side-effect, the traditional C APIs PyString_Size() and
PyString_AsString() will also accept Unicode objects as
parameters.

Tim Peters 8f422461b4 Fix for bug 113934. string*n and unicode*n did no overflow checking at
all, either to see whether the # of chars fit in an int, or that the

the alternative is silently wrong answers (as in the bug report) or
core dumps (which were easy to provoke using Unicode strings).

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 ;)

Tim Peters c2e7da9859 Somebody started playing with const, so of course the outcome
was cascades of warnings about mismatching const decls.  Overall,
I think const creates lots of headaches and solves almost
nothing.  Added enough consts to shut up the warnings, but
this did require casting away const in one spot too (another
usual outcome of starting down this path):  the function
mymemreplace can't return const char*, but sometimes wants to
return its first argument as-is, which latter must be declared
const char* in order to avoid const warnings at mymemreplace's
call sites.  So, in the case the function wants to return the
first arg, that arg's declared constness must be subverted.

Guido van Rossum c682140de7 Trent Mick:
Fix the string methods that implement slice-like semantics with
optional args (count, find, endswith, etc.) to properly handle
indeces outside [INT_MIN, INT_MAX]. Previously the "i" formatter
for PyArg_ParseTuple was used to get the indices. These could overflow.

This patch changes the string methods to use the "O&" formatter with
the slice_index() function from ceval.c which is used to do the same
job for Python code slices (e.g. 'abcabcabc'[0:1000000000L]). slice_index()
is renamed _PyEval_SliceIndex() and is now exported. As well, the return
values for success/fail were changed to make slice_index directly
usable as required by the "O&" formatter.

Guido van Rossum 90daa87569 Marc-Andre Lemburg:
* string_contains now calls PyUnicode_Contains() only when the other
  operand is a Unicode string (not whenever it's not a string).

* New format style '%r' inserts repr(arg) instead of str(arg).

* '...%s...' % u"abc" now coerces to Unicode just like
  string methods. Care is taken not to reevaluate already formatted
  arguments -- only the first Unicode object appearing in the
  argument mapping is looked up twice. Added test cases for
  this to test_unicode.py.
