To make sure there is no issue with code that is both Python 2 and 3
compatible, there are no plans to remove the module any sooner than
Python 4 (unless the community moves to Python 3 solidly before then).
* Add a new PyMemAllocators structure
* New functions:
- PyMem_RawMalloc(), PyMem_RawRealloc(), PyMem_RawFree(): GIL-free memory
allocator functions
- PyMem_GetRawAllocators(), PyMem_SetRawAllocators()
- PyMem_GetAllocators(), PyMem_SetAllocators()
- PyMem_SetupDebugHooks()
- _PyObject_GetArenaAllocators(), _PyObject_SetArenaAllocators()
* Add unit test for PyMem_Malloc(0) and PyObject_Malloc(0)
* Add unit test for new get/set allocators functions
* PyObject_Malloc() now falls back on PyMem_Malloc() instead of malloc() if
size is bigger than SMALL_REQUEST_THRESHOLD, and PyObject_Realloc() falls
back on PyMem_Realloc() instead of realloc()
* PyMem_Malloc() and PyMem_Realloc() now always call malloc() and realloc(),
instead of calling PyObject_Malloc() and PyObject_Realloc() in debug mode
Forgot to raise ModuleNotFoundError when None is found in sys.modules.
This led to introducing the C function PyErr_SetImportErrorSubclass()
to make setting ModuleNotFoundError easier.
Also updated the reference docs to mention ModuleNotFoundError
appropriately. Updated the docs for ModuleNotFoundError to mention the
None in sys.modules case.
Lastly, it was noticed that PyErr_SetImportError() was not setting an
exception when returning None in one case. That issue is now fixed.
ImportError.
The exception is raised by import when a module could not be found.
Technically this is defined as no viable loader could be found for the
specified module. This includes ``from ... import`` statements so that
the module usage is consistent for all situations where import
couldn't find what was requested.
This should allow for the common idiom of::
try:
import something
except ImportError:
pass
to be updated to using ModuleNotFoundError and not accidentally mask
ImportError messages that should propagate (e.g. issues with a
loader).
This work was driven by the fact that the ``from ... import``
statement needed to be able to tell the difference between an
ImportError that simply couldn't find a module (and thus silence the
exception so that ceval can raise it) and an ImportError that
represented an actual problem.
to interp->modules) and that deleting essential items from the dict
can cause Python to blow up.
Thanks to Terry Reedy for coming up with initial wording and Yogesh
Chaudhari for coming up with a patch using that wording in parallel to
my own patch.
