with this change.]
Cause a PyObject_Malloc() failure to trigger a MemoryError, and then
add 'if (PyErr_Occurred())' checks to various places so that NULL is
returned properly.
* unified the way intobject, longobject and mystrtoul handle
values around -sys.maxint-1.
* in general, trying to entierely avoid overflows in any computation
involving signed ints or longs is extremely involved. Fixed a few
simple cases where a compiler might be too clever (but that's all
guesswork).
* more overflow checks against bad data in marshal.c.
* 2.5 specific: fixed a number of places that were still confusing int
and Py_ssize_t. Some of them could potentially have caused
"real-world" breakage.
* list.pop(x): fixing overflow issues on x was messy. I just reverted
to PyArg_ParseTuple("n"), which does the right thing. (An obscure
test was trying to give a Decimal to list.pop()... doesn't make
sense any more IMHO)
* trying to write a few tests...
The cast function did not accept c_char_p or c_wchar_p instances
as first argument, and failed with a 'bad argument to internal function'
error message.
Anonymous structure fields that have a bit-width specified did not work,
and they gave a strange error message from PyArg_ParseTuple:
function takes exactly 2 arguments (3 given).
Fixed a few bugs on cjkcodecs:
- gbk and gb18030 codec now handle U+30FB KATAKANA MIDDLE DOT correctly.
- iso2022_jp_2 codec now encodes into G0 for KS X 1001, GB2312
codepoints to conform the standard.
- iso2022_jp_3 and iso2022_jp_2004 codec can encode JIS X 0213:2
codepoints now.
Add asserts to check for 'impossible' NULL values, with comments.
In one place where I'm not 1000% sure about the non-NULL, raise
a RuntimeError for safety.
This should fix the klocwork issues that Neal sent me. If so,
it should be applied to the release25-maint branch also.
of the Python part of a callback function to C. If it cannot be
converted, call PyErr_WriteUnraisable with the exception we got.
Before, arbitrary data has been passed to the calling C code in this
case.
(I'm not really sure the NEWS entry is understandable, but I cannot
find better words)
PyObject_stgdict() and PyType_stgdict() calls are non-NULL before
dereferencing the result. Hopefully this fixes what klocwork is
complaining about.
Fix a few other nits as well.
ctypes instances no longer have the internal and undocumented
'_as_parameter_' attribute which was used to adapt them to foreign
function calls; this mechanism is replaced by a function pointer in
the type's stgdict.
In the 'from_param' class methods, try the _as_parameter_ attribute if
other conversions are not possible.
This makes the documented _as_parameter_ mechanism work as intended.
Change the ctypes version number to 1.0.1.
I modified this patch some by fixing style, some error checking, and adding
XXX comments. This patch requires review and some changes are to be expected.
I'm checking in now to get the greatest possible review and establish a
baseline for moving forward. I don't want this to hold up release if possible.
This is the first batch of fixes that should be easy to verify based on context.
This fixes problem numbers: 220 (ast), 323-324 (symtable),
321-322 (structseq), 215 (array), 210 (hotshot), 182 (codecs), 209 (etree).
storage before converting the result to C data. See the comment in
the code for details.
Provide a better context for errors when the conversion of a callback
function's result cannot be converted.
This provides the proper warning for struct.pack().
PyErr_Warn() is now deprecated in favor of PyErr_WarnEx().
As mentioned by Tim Peters on python-dev.
We didn't notice these before because test_defaultdict didn't
actually do anything before Georg fixed that earlier today.
Neal's next refleak run then showed test_defaultdict leaking
9 references on each run. That's repaired by this checkin.
inspect.py, and pydoc.py. Specifically, this allows for querying the type of
an object against these built-in C types and more importantly, for getting
their docstrings printed in the interactive interpreter's help() function.
This patch includes a new built-in module called _types which provides
definitions of getset and member descriptors for use by the types.py module.
These types are exposed as types.GetSetDescriptorType and
types.MemberDescriptorType. Query functions are provided as
inspect.isgetsetdescriptor() and inspect.ismemberdescriptor(). The
implementations of these are robust enough to work with Python implementations
other than CPython, which may not have these fundamental types.
The patch also includes documentation and test suite updates.
I commit these changes now under these guiding principles:
1. Silence is assent. The release manager has not said "no", and of the few
people that cared enough to respond to the thread, the worst vote was "0".
2. It's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
3. It's so dang easy to revert stuff in svn, that you could view this as a
forcing function. :)
Windows build patches will follow.
it definitely could use some review to ensure I'm not off by one
and there's no possible overflow/wrap-around of bytes_left.
Reported by Klocwork #1.
Fix a problem if there is a failure allocating self->db.
Found with failmalloc.
Also fix a few memory leaks in other failure scenarios.
It seems that if b_objects == Py_None, we will have an extra ref to
b_objects. Add XXX comment so hopefully someone documents why the
else isn't necessary or adds it in.
Reported by Klocwork #20
of values in the time tuple passed in. Unfortunately people came to rely on
undocumented behaviour of setting unneeded values to 0, regardless of if it was
within the valid range. Now those values force the value internally to the
minimum value when 0 is passed in.
