- removes PY_WARN_ON_C_LOCALE build time flag
- locale coercion and compatibility warnings are now always compiled
in, but are off by default
- adds PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=warn runtime option to aid in
debugging potentially locale related compatibility problems
Due to not-yet-resolved test failures on *BSD systems (including
Mac OS X), this also temporarily disables UTF-8 as a locale coercion
target, and skips testing the interpreter's behavior in the POSIX locale.
- new PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE config setting
- coerces legacy C locale to C.UTF-8, C.utf8 or UTF-8 by default
- always uses C.UTF-8 on Android
- uses `surrogateescape` on stdin and stdout in the coercion
target locales
- configure option to disable locale coercion at build time
- configure option to disable C locale warning at build time
* Cannot seem to link directly to main options from the “unittest” module,
because that module has its own set of options
* Mask out linking for options that no longer exist in Python 3
SHOW_ALLOC_COUNT or SHOW_TRACK_COUNT macros is now off by default. It can
be re-enabled using the "-X showalloccount" option. It now outputs to stderr
instead of stdout.
Issue #26249: PyMem_Malloc() allocator family now uses the pymalloc allocator
rather than system malloc(). Applications calling PyMem_Malloc() without
holding the GIL can now crash: use PYTHONMALLOC=debug environment variable to
validate the usage of memory allocators in your application.
Issue #26516:
* Add PYTHONMALLOC environment variable to set the Python memory
allocators and/or install debug hooks.
* PyMem_SetupDebugHooks() can now also be used on Python compiled in release
mode.
* The PYTHONMALLOCSTATS environment variable can now also be used on Python
compiled in release mode. It now has no effect if set to an empty string.
* In debug mode, debug hooks are now also installed on Python memory allocators
when Python is configured without pymalloc.
The previous fix only handled the case of the parent package of __main__
failing to initialize.
Also make the "Error while finding spec" formatting slightly more appealing,
and document and test that the module name must be absolute.
The concept of .pyo files no longer exists. Now .pyc files have an
optional `opt-` tag which specifies if any extra optimizations beyond
the peepholer were applied.
Add also a PYTHONASYNCIODEBUG environment variable to debug coroutines since
Python startup, to be able to debug coroutines defined directly in the asyncio
module.
-I
Run Python in isolated mode. This also implies -E and -s. In isolated mode
sys.path contains neither the script’s directory nor the user’s
site-packages directory. All PYTHON* environment variables are ignored,
too. Further restrictions may be imposed to prevent the user from
injecting malicious code.
