Guido van Rossum 359bcaa539 This fix (across 4 files in 3 directories) solves a subtle problem with
signal handlers in a fork()ed child process when Python is compiled with
thread support.  The bug was reported by Scott <scott@chronis.icgroup.com>.

What happens is that after a fork(), the variables used by the signal
module to determine whether this is the main thread or not are bogus,
and it decides that no thread is the main thread, so no signals will
be delivered.

The solution is the addition of PyOS_AfterFork(), which fixes the signal
module's variables.  A dummy version of the function is present in the
intrcheck.c source file which is linked when the signal module is not
used.

Guido van Rossum 114c1eabbb #Added prototype for PyObject_HasAttr() -- must've been an oversight. 1997-09-06 18:44:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 49bb0e32a0 Fix in trailing comment: PyDict_SetItemString() does *not* consume a reference
count, PyList_SetItem() does.  Very confusing!
1997-09-05 17:53:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 026de19906 Added PyImport_ImportModuleEx(name, globals, locals, fromlist); this
is like PyImport_ImporModule(name) but receives the globals and locals
dict and the fromlist arguments as well.  (The name is a char*; the
others are PyObject*s).

Barry Warsaw 392d8272bf Added externs for three new exceptions PyExc_StandardError,
PyExc_NumberError, and PyExc_LookupError.  Also added extern for
pre-instantiated exception instance PyExc_MemoryErrorInst.

Removed extern of obsolete exception PyExc_AccessError.

Barry Warsaw c0dc92af7d Three new C API functions:
- int PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches(obj1, obj2)

  Returns 1 if obj1 and obj2 are the same object, or if obj1 is an
  instance of type obj2, or of a class derived from obj2

- int PyErr_ExceptionMatches(obj)

  Higher level wrapper around PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches() which uses
  PyErr_Occurred() as obj1.  This will be the more commonly called
  function.

- void PyErr_NormalizeException(typeptr, valptr, tbptr)

  Normalizes exceptions, and places the normalized values in the
  arguments.  If type is not a class, this does nothing.  If type is a
  class, then it makes sure that value is an instance of the class by:

  1. if instance is of the type, or a class derived from type, it does
     nothing.

  2. otherwise it instantiates the class, using the value as an
     argument.  If value is None, it uses an empty arg tuple, and if
     the value is a tuple, it uses just that.

Guido van Rossum e3c0d5eb34 Added new Py_IsInitalized() API function to test the 'initialized' flag. 1997-08-22 04:20:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ab589b945e Completely disable the declarations for malloc() and friends. Use
#ifdef though, so if you still need these for a really backwards
compiler you know what to do.

Guido van Rossum 1d529d1ecd Add a cast to the call to _Py_Dealloc in the expanded version of
Py_DECREF, to reduce the warnings when compiling with reference count
debugging on.  (There are still warnings for each call to
_Py_NewReference -- too bad.)
1997-08-05 02:30:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d085e88d3c Added Py_Malloc and friends as well as PyMem_Malloc and friends. 1997-08-05 01:59:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 29e46a9a12 Mass checkin (more to follow for other directories).
Introduce truly separate (sub)interpreter objects.  For now, these
must be used by separate threads, created from C.  See Demo/pysvr for
an example of how to use this.  This also rationalizes Python's
initialization and finalization behavior:

Py_Initialize() -- initialize the whole interpreter
Py_Finalize() -- finalize the whole interpreter

tstate = Py_NewInterpreter() -- create a new (sub)interpreter
Py_EndInterpreter(tstate) -- delete a new (sub)interpreter

There are also new interfaces relating to threads and the interpreter
lock, which can be used to create new threads, and sometimes have to
be used to manipulate the interpreter lock when creating or deleting
sub-interpreters.  These are only defined when WITH_THREAD is defined:

PyEval_AcquireLock() -- acquire the interpreter lock
PyEval_ReleaseLock() -- release the interpreter lock

PyEval_AcquireThread(tstate) -- acquire the lock and make the thread current
PyEval_ReleaseThread(tstate) -- release the lock and make NULL current

Other administrative changes:

- The header file bltinmodule.h is deleted.

- The init functions for Import, Sys and Builtin are now internal and
  declared in pythonrun.h.

- Py_Setup() and Py_Cleanup() are no longer declared.

- The interpreter state and thread state structures are now linked
  together in a chain (the chain of interpreters is a static variable
  in pythonrun.c).

- Some members of the interpreter and thread structures have new,
  shorter, more consistent, names.

- Added declarations for _PyImport_{Find,Fixup}Extension() to import.h.

Guido van Rossum 766118525a Changed the patch level to 1.5a3, to avoid confusion with a2 (I'm not

1997-07-19 23:46:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 57d8e3f1c7 Added declarations for Py_{Set,Get}ProgramName() and a bunch of other
Py_Get*() functions.

Guido van Rossum 618af4b3ef Include pystate.h earlier so it can be referenced by ceval.h. 1997-07-18 23:59:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 2fca21f762 PyEval_SaveThread() and PyEval_RestoreThread() now return/take a
PyThreadState pointer instead of a (frame) PyObject pointer.  This
makes much more sense.  It is backward incompatible, but that's no
problem, because (a) the heaviest users are the Py_{BEGIN,END}_
ALLOW_THREADS macros here, which have been fixed too; (b) there are
very few direct users; (c) those who use it are there will probably
appreciate the change.

Also, added new functions PyEval_AcquireThread() and
PyEval_ReleaseThread() which allows the threads created by the thread
module as well threads created by others (!) to set/reset the current
thread, and at the same time acquire/release the interpreter lock.

Much saner.
