test_no_semis_header_splitter(): Test for SF bug # 471918, Generator
splitting long headers.
Mostly by Toby Dickenson and Titus Brown.
Add an optional argument to a decompression object's decompress()
method. The argument specifies the maximum length of the return
value. If the uncompressed data exceeds this length, the excess data
is stored as the unconsumed_tail attribute. (Not to be confused with
unused_data, which is a separate issue.)
Difference from SF patch: Default value for unconsumed_tail is ""
rather than None. It's simpler if the attribute is always a string.
object.c, PyObject_Str: Don't try to optimize anything except exact
string objects here; in particular, let str subclasses go thru tp_str,
same as non-str objects. This allows overrides of tp_str to take
effect.
stringobject.c:
+ string_print (str's tp_print): If the argument isn't an exact string
object, get one from PyObject_Str.
+ string_str (str's tp_str): Make a genuine-string copy of the object if
it's of a proper str subclass type. str() applied to a str subclass
that doesn't override __str__ ends up here.
test_descr.py: New str_of_str_subclass() test.
Remove the log file after we are done with it. This should clean up after
the test even on Windows, since the file is now closed before we attempt
removal.
Simply commented it out, and then test_hotshot passes on Windows.
Leaving to Fred to fix "the right way" (it seems to be a feature of
unittest that all unittests try to unlink open files <wink>).
inherit_slots(): tp_as_buffer was getting inherited as if it were a
method pointer, rather than a pointer to a vector of method pointers. As
a result, inheriting from a type that implemented buffer methods was
ineffective, leaving all the tp_as_buffer slots NULL in the subclass.
corresponding to a dispatch slot (e.g. __getitem__ or __add__) is set,
calculate the proper dispatch slot and propagate the change to all
subclasses. Because of multiple inheritance, there's no easy way to
avoid always recursing down the tree of subclasses. Who cares?
(There's more to do, but this works. There's also a test for this now.)
the problem that slots weren't inherited properly. override_slots()
no longer exists; in its place comes fixup_slot_dispatchers() which
does more and different work and is table-based. (Eventually I want
this table also to replace all the little tab_foo tables.)
Also add a wrapper for __delslice__; this required a change in
test_descrtut.py.
without the Py_TPFLAGS_CHECKTYPES flag) in the wrappers. This
required a few changes in test_descr.py to cope with the fact that the
complex type has __int__, __long__ and __float__ methods that always
raise an exception.
this type of test fails, vereq() does a better job of reporting than
verify().
Change vereq(x, y) to use "not x == y" rather than "x != y" -- it
makes a difference is some overloading tests.
many types were subclassable but had a xxx_dealloc function that
called PyObject_DEL(self) directly instead of deferring to
self->ob_type->tp_free(self). It is permissible to set tp_free in the
type object directly to _PyObject_Del, for non-GC types, or to
_PyObject_GC_Del, for GC types. Still, PyObject_DEL was a tad faster,
so I'm fearing that our pystone rating is going down again. I'm not
sure if doing something like
void xxx_dealloc(PyObject *self)
{
if (PyXxxCheckExact(self))
PyObject_DEL(self);
else
self->ob_type->tp_free(self);
}
is any faster than always calling the else branch, so I haven't
attempted that -- however those types whose own dealloc is fancier
(int, float, unicode) do use this pattern.
For a dynamically constructed type object, fill in the tp_doc slot with
a copy of the argument dict's "__doc__" value, provided the latter exists
and is a string.
NOTE: I don't know what to do if it's a Unicode string, so in that case
tp_doc is left NULL (which shows up as Py_None if you do Class.__doc__).
Note that tp_doc holds a char*, not a general PyObject*.
it deals correctly with some anomalous cases; according to this test
suite I've fixed it right.
The anomalous cases had to do with 'exception' events: these aren't
generated when they would be most helpful, and the profiler has to
work hard to recover the right information. The problems occur when C
code (such as hasattr(), which is used as the example here) calls back
into Python code and clears an exception raised by that Python code.
Consider this example:
def foo():
hasattr(obj, "bar")
Where obj is an instance from a class like this:
class C:
def __getattr__(self, name):
raise AttributeError
The profiler sees the following sequence of events:
call (foo)
call (__getattr__)
exception (in __getattr__)
return (from foo)
Previously, the profiler would assume the return event returned from
__getattr__. An if statement checking for this condition and raising
an exception was commented out... This version does the right thing.
test for modifying __getattr__ works, now that slot_tp_getattr_hook
zaps the slot if there's no hook. Added an XXX comment with a ref
back to slot_tp_getattr_hook.
Taught doctest about static methods, class methods, and property docstrings
in new-style classes. As for inspect.py/pydoc.py before it, the new stuff
needed didn't really fit into the old architecture (but was less of a
strain to force-fit here).
New-style class docstrings still aren't found, but that's the subject
of a different bug and I want to fix that right instead of hacking around
it in doctest.
instances).
Also added GC support to various auxiliary types: super, property,
descriptors, wrappers, dictproxy. (Only type objects have a tp_clear
field; the other types are.)
One change was necessary to the GC infrastructure. We have statically
allocated type objects that don't have a GC header (and can't easily
be given one) and heap-allocated type objects that do have a GC
header. Giving these different metatypes would be really ugly: I
tried, and I had to modify pickle.py, cPickle.c, copy.py, add a new
invent a new name for the new metatype and make it a built-in, change
affected tests... In short, a mess. So instead, we add a new type
slot tp_is_gc, which is a simple Boolean function that determines
whether a particular instance has GC headers or not. This slot is
only relevant for types that have the (new) GC flag bit set. If the
tp_is_gc slot is NULL (by far the most common case), all instances of
the type are deemed to have GC headers. This slot is called by the
PyObject_IS_GC() macro (which is only used twice, both times in
gcmodule.c).
I also changed the extern declarations for a bunch of GC-related
functions (_PyObject_GC_Del etc.): these always exist but objimpl.h
only declared them when WITH_CYCLE_GC was defined, but I needed to be
able to reference them without #ifdefs. (When WITH_CYCLE_GC is not
defined, they do the same as their non-GC counterparts anyway.)
- The test for deepcopy() in pickles() was indented wrongly, so it got
run twice (one for binary pickle mode, one for text pickle mode; but
the test doesn't depend on the pickle mode).
- In verbose mode, show which subtest (pickle/cPickle/deepcopy, text/bin).
in run_test() referenced two non-existent variables, and in
non-verbose mode, the tests didn't report the actual number, when it
differed from the expected number. Fixed this.
Also added an extra call to gc.collect() at the start of test_all().
This will be needed when I check in the changes to add GC to new-style
classes.
from Tim Hochberg. Also mucho fiddling to change the way doctest
determines whether a thing is a function, module or class. Under 2.2,
this really requires the functions in inspect.py (e.g., types.ClassType
is close to meaningless now, if not outright misleading).
staticness when __dynamic__ = 1 becomes the default:
- Some classes which are used to test the difference between static
and dynamic.
- Subclasses of complex: complex uses old-style numbers and the slot
wrappers used by dynamic classes only support new-style numbers.
(Ideally, the complex type should be fixed, but that looks like a
labor-intensive job.)
