spread the extern "C" { } magic pixie dust around. Python itself builds now

Thu, 13 Apr 2006 02:06:09 +0000

spread the extern "C" { } magic pixie dust around. Python itself builds now
using a C++ compiler. Still lots and lots of errors in the modules built by
setup.py, and a bunch of warnings from g++ in the core.

This patch fixes possible overflow in the use of
PyOS_GetLastModificationTime in getmtime.c and Python/import.c.

Currently PyOS_GetLastModificationTime returns a C long. This can
overflow on Win64 where sizeof(time_t) > sizeof(long). Besides it
should logically return a time_t anyway (this patch changes this).

As well, import.c uses PyOS_GetLastModificationTime for .pyc
timestamping. There has been recent discussion about the .pyc header
format on python-dev. This patch adds oveflow checking to import.c so
that an exception will be raised if the modification time
overflows. There are a few other minor 64-bit readiness changes made
to the module as well:

- size_t instead of int or long for function-local buffer and string
length variables

- one buffer overflow check was added (raises an exception on possible
overflow, this overflow chance exists on 32-bit platforms as well), no
other possible buffer overflows existed (from my analysis anyway)

Closes SourceForge patch #100509.

First part of package support.

First part of package support.

This doesn't yet support "import a.b.c" or "from a.b.c import x", but
it does recognize directories. When importing a directory, it
initializes __path__ to a list containing the directory name, and
loads the __init__ module if found.

The (internal) find_module() and load_module() functions are
restructured so that they both also handle built-in and frozen modules
and Mac resources (and directories of course). The imp module's
find_module() and (new) load_module() also have this functionality.
Moreover, imp unconditionally defines constants for all module types,
and has two more new functions: find_module_in_package() and
find_module_in_directory().

There's also a new API function, PyImport_ImportModuleEx(), which
takes all four __import__ arguments (name, globals, locals, fromlist).
The last three may be NULL. This is currently the same as
PyImport_ImportModule() but in the future it will be able to do
relative dotted-path imports.

Other changes:

- bltinmodule.c: in __import__, call PyImport_ImportModuleEx().

- ceval.c: always pass the fromlist to __import__, even if it is a C
function, so PyImport_ImportModuleEx() is useful.

- getmtime.c: the function has a second argument, the FILE*, on which
it applies fstat(). According to Sjoerd this is much faster. The
first (pathname) argument is ignored, but remains for backward
compatibility (so the Mac version still works without changes).

By cleverly combining the new imp functionality, the full support for
dotted names in Python (mini.py, not checked in) is now about 7K,
lavishly commented (vs. 14K for ni plus 11K for ihooks, also lavishly
commented).

Good night!
