var_decl: Declared variable "stm" without initializer
ninit_use_in_call: Using uninitialized value "stm" (field "stm".tm_zone uninitialized) in call to function "mktime"
using a custom, nearly-identical macro. This probably changes how some of
these functions are compiled, which may result in fractionally slower (or
faster) execution. Considering the nature of traversal, visiting much of the
address space in unpredictable patterns, I'd argue the code readability and
maintainability is well worth it ;P
arbitrary bytes before the actual zip compatible archive. Zipfiles
containing comments at the end of the file are still not supported.
Add a testcase to test_zipimport, and update NEWS.
This closes sf #775637 and sf #669036.
Fix off-by-1 error in normalize_line_endings():
when *p == '\0' the NUL was copied into q and q was auto-incremented,
the loop was broken out of,
then a newline was appended followed by a NUL.
So the function, in effect, was strcpy() but added two extra chars
which was caught by obmalloc in debug mode, since there was only
room for 1 additional newline.
Get test working under regrtest (added test_main).
Lesson learned: kids should not be allowed to use API's starting
with an underscore :-/
zipimport in 2.3a1 is even more broken than I thought: I attemped
to _PyString_Resize a string created by PyString_FromStringAndSize,
which fails for strings with length 0 or 1 since the latter returns
an interned string in those cases. This would cause a SystemError
with empty source files (and no matching pyc) in the zip archive.
I rewrote the offending code to simply allocate a new buffer and
avoid _PyString_Resize altogether.
Added a test that would've caught the problem.
the test set as it only tested with a zip archive in the current directory,
but it doesn't work at all for packages when the zip archive was specified
as an absolute path. It's a real embarrassing bug: a strchr call should
have been strrchr; fever apparently implies dyslexia.
Second stupid bug: the zipimport test failed with a name error
__importer__ (which I had renamed to __loader__ everywhere but here).
I would've sworn I ran the test after that change but that can't be true.
What I don't understand that noone reported a failing test_zipimport.py
before the release of 2.3a1.
- new import hooks in import.c, exposed in the sys module
- new module called 'zipimport'
- various changes to allow bootstrapping from zip files
I hope I didn't break the Windows build (or anything else for that
matter), but then again, it's been sitting on sf long enough...
Regarding the latest discussions on python-dev: zipimport sets
pkg.__path__ as specified in PEP 273, and likewise, sys.path item such as
/path/to/Archive.zip/subdir/ are supported again.
