Tim Peters e5e065b669 New function sys.getcheckinterval(), to complement setcheckinterval(). 2003-07-06 18:36:54 +00:00
Martin v. Löwis 5467d4c0e3 Patch #612627: Add encoding attribute to file objects, and determine
the terminal encoding on Windows and Unix.

Martin v. Löwis c16f3bd8a3 Patch #708495: Port more stuff to OpenVMS. 2003-05-03 09:14:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a12fe4e81f - New function sys.call_tracing() allows pdb to debug code
recursively.
- pdb has a new command, "debug", which lets you step through
  arbitrary code from the debugger's (pdb) prompt.

Martin v. Löwis 73d538b9c6 Always initialize Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding on Unix in Py_Initialize,
and not as a side effect of setlocale. Expose it as sys.getfilesystemencoding.
Adjust test case.

Guido van Rossum 46d3dc37e4 - New function sys.exc_clear() clears the current exception. This is
rarely needed, but can sometimes be useful to release objects
  referenced by the traceback held in sys.exc_info()[2].  (SF patch
  #693195.)  Thanks to Kevin Jacobs!

Guido van Rossum 162e38c6a3 - sys.path[0] (the directory from which the script is loaded) is now
turned into an absolute pathname, unless it is the empty string.

Jeremy Hylton 985eba53f5 Small function call optimization and special build option for call stats.
-DCALL_PROFILE: Count the number of function calls executed.

When this symbol is defined, the ceval mainloop and helper functions
count the number of function calls made.  It keeps detailed statistics
about what kind of object was called and whether the call hit any of
the special fast paths in the code.

Optimization:

When we take the fast_function() path, which seems to be taken for
most function calls, and there is minimal frame setup to do, avoid
call PyEval_EvalCodeEx().  The eval code ex function does a lot of
work to handle keywords args and star args, free variables,
generators, etc.  The inlined version simply allocates the frame and
copies the arguments values into the frame.

The optimization gets a little help from compile.c which adds a
CO_NOFREE flag to code objects that don't have free variables or cell
variables.  This change allows fast_function() to get into the fast
path with fewer tests.

I measure a couple of percent speedup in pystone with this change, but
there's surely more that can be done.

Thomas Heller 27bb71e963 Patch #664376: sys.path[0] should contain absolute pathname.
This fixes the problem on Windows - that's the only system where I can
test it.

It leaves sys.argv alone and only changes sys.path[0] to an absolute
pathname.

Mark Hammond 8696ebcd28 Add os.path.supports_unicode_filenames for all platforms,
sys.getwindowsversion() on Windows (new enahanced Tim-proof <wink>
version), and fix test_pep277.py in a few minor ways.
Including doc and NEWS entries.

Skip Montanaro d581d7792b replace thread state objects' ticker and checkinterval fields with two
globals, _Py_Ticker and _Py_CheckInterval.  This also implements Jeremy's
shortcut in Py_AddPendingCall that zeroes out _Py_Ticker.  This allows the
test in the main loop to only test a single value.

The gory details are at

Skip Montanaro 8e790e7007 expose PYTHON_API_VERSION macro as sys.api_version. Closes patch # 601456. 2002-09-03 13:25:17 +00:00
Tim Peters 4be93d0e84 Rearranged and added comments to object.h, to clarify many things
that have taken me "too long" to reverse-engineer over the years.
Vastly reduced the nesting level and redundancy of #ifdef-ery.
Took a light stab at repairing comments that are no longer true.

sys_gettotalrefcount():  Changed to enable under Py_REF_DEBUG.
It was enabled under Py_TRACE_REFS, which was much heavier than
necessary.  sys.gettotalrefcount() is now available in a
Py_REF_DEBUG-only build.

Tim Peters faad5ad590 mysnprintf.c: Massive rewrite of PyOS_snprintf and PyOS_vsnprintf, to
use wrappers on all platforms, to make this as consistent as possible x-
platform (in particular, make sure there's at least one \0 byte in
the output buffer).  Also document more of the truth about what these do.

getargs.c, seterror():  Three computations of remaining buffer size were
backwards, thus telling PyOS_snprintf the buffer is larger than it
actually is.  This matters a lot now that PyOS_snprintf ensures there's a
trailing \0 byte (because it didn't get the truth about the buffer size,
it was storing \0 beyond the true end of the buffer).

sysmodule.c, mywrite():  Simplify, now that PyOS_vsnprintf guarantees to
produce a \0 byte.
2001-12-03 00:43:33 +00:00
Tim Peters 080d5b3f0b mywrite(): The test for trouble in PyOS_vsnprintf was wrong on both
ends.  Also, when there is trouble, ensure the buffer has a traiing
0 byte.
2001-12-02 08:29:16 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 5d3d134d56 Use PyOS_vsnprintf() and check its return value.
If it returns -1 (which indicates overflow on old Linux platforms and
perhaps on Windows) or size greater than buffer, write a message
indicating that the previous message was truncated.

Fred Drake 8f51f54319 Rationalize the events passed to the profiler (no changes for the tracer).
The profiler does not need to know anything about the exception state,
so we no longer call it when an exception is raised.  We do, however,
make sure we *always* call the profiler when we exit a frame.  This
ensures that timing events are more easily isolated by a profiler and
finally clauses that do a lot of work don't have their time
mis-allocated.

When an exception is propogated out of the frame, the C callback for
the profiler now receives a PyTrace_RETURN event with an arg of NULL;
the Python-level profile hook function will see a 'return' event with
an arg of None.  This means that from Python it is impossible for the
profiler to determine if the frame exited with an exception or if it
returned None, but this doesn't matter for profiling.  A C-based
profiler could tell the difference, but this doesn't seem important.

ceval.c:eval_frame():  Simplify the code in two places so that the
                       profiler is called for every exit from a frame
                       and not for exceptions.

sysmodule.c:profile_trampoline():  Make sure we don't expose Python
                                   code to NULL; use None instead.

Martin v. Löwis 339d0f720e Patch #445762: Support --disable-unicode
- Do not compile unicodeobject, unicodectype, and unicodedata if Unicode is disabled
- check for Py_USING_UNICODE in all places that use Unicode functions
- disables unicode literals, and the builtin functions
- add the types.StringTypes list
- remove Unicode literals from most tests.

Fred Drake 5755ce693d Revise the interface to the profiling and tracing support for the
Python interpreter.

This change adds two new C-level APIs:  PyEval_SetProfile() and
PyEval_SetTrace().  These can be used to install profile and trace
functions implemented in C, which can operate at much higher speeds
than Python-based functions.  The overhead for calling a C-based
profile function is a very small fraction of a percent of the overhead
involved in calling a Python-based function.

The machinery required to call a Python-based profile or trace
function been moved to sysmodule.c, where sys.setprofile() and
sys.setprofile() simply become users of the new interface.

As a side effect, SF bug #436058 is fixed; there is no longer a
_PyTrace_Init() function to declare.

Martin v. Löwis ce9b5a55e1 Encode surrogates in UTF-8 even for a wide Py_UNICODE.
Implement sys.maxunicode.
Explicitly wrap around upper/lower computations for wide Py_UNICODE.
When decoding large characters with UTF-8, represent expected test
results using the \U notation.
2001-06-27 06:28:56 +00:00
Fred Drake d083839fb4 Instead of initializing & interning the strings passed to the profile
and trace functions lazily, which incurs extra argument pushing and checks
in the C overhead for profiling/tracing, create the strings semi-lazily
when the Python code first registers a profile or trace function.  This
simplifies the trampoline into the profile/trace functions.

Guido van Rossum bceccf5f43 Updated version of RISCOS support. SF patch 411213 by Dietmar Schwertberger 2001-04-10 22:07:43 +00:00
Ka-Ping Yee b5c5132d1a Add sys.excepthook.
Update docstring and library reference section on 'sys' module.
New API PyErr_Display, just for displaying errors, called by excepthook.
Uncaught exceptions now call sys.excepthook; if that fails, we fall back
    to calling PyErr_Display directly.
Also comes with sys.__excepthook__ and sys.__displayhook__.

Guido van Rossum 03df3b3bc1 Neil discovered a bad DECREF on warnoptions, that caused repeated
re-initializing Python (Py_Finalize() followed by Py_Initialize()) to
blow up quickly.  With the DECREF removed I can't get it to fail any
more.  (Except it still leaks, but that's probably a separate issue.)

Fred Drake 592f2d6c85 _PySys_Init(): When setting up sys.version_info, use #if/#elif.../#endif

Fred Drake ccede59889 The attempt to protect against MS_WIN16 compilers that do not support long
string literals has not been tested on an MS_WIN16 platform; the trailing
";" was inside the #ifndef MS_WIN16, which should cause an error (missing
semi-colon) when compiled with that symbol #defined.

Thomas Wouters 1e0c2f4bee Create a new section of pyport.h to hold all external function declarations
for systems that are missing those declarations from system include files.
Start by moving a pointy-haired ones from their previous locations to the
new section.

(The gethostname() one, for instance, breaks on several systems, because
some define it as (char *, size_t) and some as (char *, int).)

I purposely decided not to include the summary of used #defines like Tim did
in the first section of pyport.h. In my opinion, the number of #defines
likedly to be used by this section would make such an overview unwieldy. I
would suggest documenting the non-obvious ones, though.
