See PEP 539 for details.
Highlights of changes:
- Add Thread Specific Storage (TSS) API
- Document the Thread Local Storage (TLS) API as deprecated
- Update code that used TLS API to use TSS API
* group the (stateful) runtime globals into various topical structs
* consolidate the topical structs under a single top-level _PyRuntimeState struct
* add a check-c-globals.py script that helps identify runtime globals
Other globals are excluded (see globals.txt and check-c-globals.py).
`PYTHONFRAMEWORK` is defined in `Makefile` and it shoulnd't be used
in `pyconfig.h`.
`sysconfig.py --generate-posix-vars` reads config vars from Makefile
and `pyconfig.h`. Conflicting variables should be avoided.
Especially, string config variables in Makefile are unquoted, but
in `pyconfig.h` are keep quoted. So it should be private (starts with
underscore).
* bpo-30362 Add list options to launcher.
* bpo-30362 Add list options to help message.
* To avoid possible later conflict with python replaced flags with --launcher-list and --launcher-list-paths
* bpo-30362 Changed flag to -0 as suggested on review.
* bpo-30362: Modified to default to not path for -0, -0p to dispaly path and append * to default
* bpo-30362: Modified to display list on required version not found.
* bpo-30362 add --list and --list-paths added back in following review by paul.moore
* bpo-30362 Cleaner handing of -0 & -0p by not calling exit directly per review by @zooba
* bpo-30362: Tidy up and add news & what's new
Removed commented out line of code in PC/launcher.c.
Added the results of using blurb to add details of bpo-30362 & bpo-30291.
Updated Doc/whatsnew/3.7.rst to add a Windows only section covering both tickets.
* bpo-30362 Resolve conflict in Doc/whatsnew/3.7.rst
* bpo-30362:Address Whitespace Issue in Doc\whatsnew\3.7.rst
* Shorten NEWS message for bpo-30362
* Shorten NEWS item for bpo-30291
* bpo-29585: Fix PC/pyconfig.h whitespaces
Run "make patchcheck".
* bpo-29585: Define PYTHONFRAMEWORK in PC/pyconfig.h
* site: Fix path separator in _get_path() on Windows
Based on patch by Victor Stinner.
Add private C API function _PyUnicode_AsUnicode() which is similar to
PyUnicode_AsUnicode(), but checks for null characters.
The function '_PyArg_ParseStack()' and
'_PyArg_UnpackStack' were failing (with error
"XXX() takes Y argument (Z given)") before
the function '_PyArg_NoStackKeywords()' was called.
Thus, the latter did not raise its more meaningful
error : "XXX() takes no keyword arguments".
There was few cases of using literal 0 instead of NULL in the context of
pointers. While this was a legitimate C code, using NULL rather than 0 makes
the code clearer.
a macro if Py_LIMITED_API is not set or set to the value between 0x03050400
and 0x03060000 (not including) or 0x03060100 or higher. Added functions
PySlice_Unpack() and PySlice_AdjustIndices().
