missing PyObject_Del()'s, simplify some code by using Py_BuildValue()
instead of creating a tuple with items manually, stop clobbering builtin
exceptions in a few places, and guard against NULL-returning functions some
more.
This fixes 117 of the 780 (!?!#%@#$!!) reference leaks in test_bsddb3. I
ain't not done yet, although this review of 5kloc was just the easy part.
an error code, this let `self` leak. This is a disaster
on Windows, since `self` already points to a newly-opened
file object, and it was impossible for Python code to
close the thing since the only reference to it was in a
blob of leaked C memory.
test_hotshot test_bad_sys_path(): This new test provoked
the C bug above. This test passed, but left an open
"@test" file behind, which caused a massive cascade of
bogus test failures in later, unrelated tests on Windows.
Changed the test code to remove the @test file it leaves
behind, which relies on the change above to close that
file first.
to an unsigned int (and back again) on 64-bit machines, even though the
actual value of the Py_ssize_t variable is way below 31 bits. I suspect
compiler-error.
the sentinel value in the main function, rather than the helper. This
function could possibly do with an early-out if any of the helper calls ends
up with a len of 0, but I doubt it really matters (how common are malformed
hangul syllables, really?)
posix__getfullpathname().
In partial answer to the now-deleted XXX comment:
/* XXX(twouters) Why use 'et#' here at all? insize isn't used */
`insize` is an input parameter too, and it was left uninitialized,
leading to seemingly random failures.
non-32bit platforms. Will still only allow 32 bits in a timestamp on Win64,
but at least it won't crash, and it'll work right on platforms where longs
are big enough to contain time_t's.
(A better-working, although conceptually less-right fix would have been to
use Py_ssize_t here, but Martin and Tim won't let me.)
- New semantics for __exit__() -- it must re-raise the exception
if type is not None; the with-statement itself doesn't do this.
(See the updated PEP for motivation.)
- Added context managers to:
- file
- thread.LockType
- threading.{Lock,RLock,Condition,Semaphore,BoundedSemaphore}
- decimal.Context
- Added contextlib.py, which defines @contextmanager, nested(), closing().
- Unit tests all around; bot no docs yet.
- IMPORT_NAME takes an extra argument from the stack: the relativeness of
the import. Only passed to __import__ when it's not -1.
- __import__() takes an optional 5th argument for the same thing; it
__defaults to -1 (old semantics: try relative, then absolute)
- 'from . import name' imports name (be it module or regular attribute)
from the current module's *package*. Likewise, 'from .module import name'
will import name from a sibling to the current module.
- Importing from outside a package is not allowed; 'from . import sys' in a
toplevel module will not work, nor will 'from .. import sys' in a
(single-level) package.
- 'from __future__ import absolute_import' will turn on the new semantics
for import and from-import: imports will be absolute, except for
from-import with dots.
Includes tests for regular imports and importhooks, parser changes and a
NEWS item, but no compiler-package changes or documentation changes.
