Printing to stdout, doesn't mean the data was actually written.
It depends on the buffering, so we need to flush. This will hopefully
really fix the buildbots getting killed due to no output on the slow bots.
- Warn-raise ImportWarning when importing would have picked up a directory
as package, if only it'd had an __init__.py. This swaps two tests (for
case-ness and __init__-ness), but case-test is not really more expensive,
and it's not in a speed-critical section.
- Test for the new warning by importing a common non-package directory on
sys.path: site-packages
- In regrtest.py, silence warnings generated by the build-environment
because Modules/ (which is added to sys.path for Setup-created modules)
has 'zlib' and '_ctypes' directories without __init__.py's.
This may be a useful style question for the docs -- should examples show
the necessary imports, or should it be assumed that the reader will
figure it out? In the What's New, I'm not consistent but usually opt
for omitting the imports.
tuples. Lots to be added, still, but this will give big-memory people
something to play with in 2.5 alpha 2, and hopefully get more people to
write these tests.
After the patch (45590) to add extra debug stats to the gc module, Python
was crashing on OpenBSD due to:
Fatal Python error: Interpreter not initialized (version mismatch?)
This seems to occur due to calling collect() when initialized (in pythonrun.c)
is set to 0. Now, the import will occur in the init function which
shouldn't suffer this problem.
uses of it in test_with.py. As a result, test_with has been skipped
(due to failing imports) on all buildbot boxes since. Alas, that's
not a test failure -- you have to pay attention to the
1 skip unexpected on PLATFORM:
test_with
kinds of output at the ends of test runs to notice that this got
broken.
It's likely that more renaming in test_with.py would be desirable.
MAXPATHLEN-sized buffers for various output-buffers (like to realpath()),
and that's correct on BSD platforms, but not Linux (which uses PATH_MAX, and
does not define MAXPATHLEN.) Cursory googling suggests Linux is following a
newer standard than BSD, but in cases like this, who knows. Using the
greater of PATH_MAX and 1024 as a fallback for MAXPATHLEN seems to be the
most portable solution.
