test_commands does not work on IRIX
It assumes the output of "ls /bin/ls" is a line
that starts with a '-'. On IRIX that file is
a symbolic link, so the first character is an l.
This causes test_getstatus to fail.
XXX Remaining problems:
- The GC module doesn't know about these; I think it has its reasons
to disallow calling __del__, but for now, __del__ on new-style
objects is called when the GC module discards an object, for better
or for worse.
- The code to call a __del__ handler is really ridiculously
complicated, due to all the different debug #ifdefs. I've copied
this from the similar code in classobject.c, so I'm pretty sure I
did it right, but it's not pretty. :-(
- No tests yet.
dictionary instead of building a new one, and provide an overridable method
to allow subclasses to catch ADD_INFO records that are not part of the
initial block of ADD_INFO records created by the profiler itself.
to lists of values, giving the contents of all the ADD_INFO records
seen so far. This is initialized agressively when the log file is
opened, so that whoever is looking at the log reader can always see
the initial data loaded into the data stream. ADD_INFO events later
in the log file continue to be reported to the application layer as
before.
Add a new method, addinfo(), to the profiler. This can be used to
insert additional ADD_INFO records into the profiler log.
Fix the tp_flags and tp_name slots on the type objects.
And SF patch 473223 -- infinite getattr loop
Wrap select() and poll() calls with try/except for EINTR. If EINTR is
raised, treat as a response where no fd is ready.
In dispatcher constructor, make sure self.socket is always
initialized.
"socket.socket" -- on Windows, "socket.socket" is the wrapper class.
Also added the module name to the SSL type (which is not a new-style
class -- I don't want to mess with it yet).
constructor acts just like socket() before. All three arguments have
a sensible default now; socket() is equivalent to
socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM).
One minor issue: the socket() function and the SocketType had
different doc strings; socket.__doc__ gave the signature,
SocketType.__doc__ gave the methods. I've merged these for now, but
maybe the list of methods is no longer necessary since it can easily
be recovered through socket.__dict__.keys(). The problem with keeping
it is that the total doc string is a bit long (34 lines -- it scrolls
of a standard tty screen).
Another general issue with the socket module is that it's a big mess.
There's pages and pages of random platform #ifdefs, and the naming
conventions are totally wrong: it uses Py prefixes and CapWords for
static functions. That's a cleanup for another day... (Also I think
the big starting comment that summarizes the API can go -- it's a
repeat of the docstring.)
RISCOS/Makefile:
include structseq and weakrefobject;
changes to keep command line length below 2048
RISCOS/Modules/riscosmodule.c:
typos from the stat structseq patch
Include/pyport.h:
don't re-#define __attribute__(__x) on RISC OS as it is already defined in c library
object.h: Added PyType_CheckExact macro.
typeobject.c, type_new():
+ Use the new macro.
+ Assert that the arguments have the right types rather than do incomplete
runtime checks "sometimes".
+ If this isn't the 1-argument flavor() of type, and there aren't 3 args
total, produce a "types() takes 1 or 3 args" msg before
PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords produces a "takes exactly 3" msg.
+ Squash another potential buffer overrun.
+ Simplify the keyword-arg loop by decrementing the count of keywords
remaining instead of incrementing Yet Another Variable; also break
out early if the number of keyword args remaining hits 0.
Since I hit the function's closing curly brace with this patch, that's
enough of this for now <wink>.
the va_list until we are sure we have a format string and need to use it;
this avoid premature initialization and having to finalize it several
different places because of error returns.
The "need" for this was probably removed by an earlier patch that stopped
the loop right before it from passing NULL to a dict lookup routine.
I still haven't convinced myself that the next loop is correct, so am
leaving the next mysterious PyErr_Clear() call in for now.
+ Generally test nkeywords against 0 instead of keywords against NULL
(saves a little work if an empty keywords dict is passed, and is
conceptually more on-target regardless).
+ When a call erroneously specifies a keyword argument both by position
and by keyword name:
- It was easy to provoke this routine into an internal buffer overrun
by using a long argument name. Now uses PyErr_format instead (which
computes a safe buffer size).
- Improved the error msg.
+ Got rid of now-redundant dict typecheck.
+ Renamed nkwds to nkwlist. Now all the "counting" vrbls have names
related to the things they're counting in an obvious way.
+ Renamed argslen to nargs.
+ Renamed kwlen to nkeywords. This one was especially confusing because
kwlen wasn't the length of the kwlist argument, but of the keywords
argument.
+ Removed now-redundant tuple typecheck.
+ Renamed "tplen" local to "argslen" (it's the length of the "args"
argument; I suppose "tp" was for "Tim Peters should rename me
someday <wink>).
