dirname in sys.path. This means that you can create a symbolic link
foo in /usr/local/bin pointing to /usr/yourname/src/foo/foo.py, and
then invoking foo will insert /usr/yourname/src/foo in sys.path, not
/usr/local/bin. This makes it easier to have multifile programs
(before, the program would have to do an os.readlink(sys.argv[0])
itself and insert the resulting directory in sys.path -- Grail does
this).
Note that the expansion is only used for sys.path; sys.argv[0] is
still the original, unadorned filename (/usr/local/bin/foo in the
example).
2. Fix two bugs in complex():
- Memory leak when using complex(classinstance) -- r was never
DECREF'ed.
- Conversion of the second argument, if not complex, was done using
the type vector of the 1st.
recognized by the code generator and code generation for the test and
the subsequent suite is suppressed.
One must write *exactly* ``if __debug__:'' or ``elif __debug__:'' --
no parentheses or operators must be present, or the optimization is
not carried through. Whitespace doesn't matter. Other uses of
__debug__ will find __debug__ defined as 0 or 1 in the __builtin__
module.
Py_FdIsInteractive(). The flag is supposed to be set by the -i
command line option. The function is supposed to be called instead of
isatty(). This is used for Lee Busby's wish #1, to have an option
that pretends stdin is interactive even when it really isn't.
by the frameobject dealloc when it is time for the locals to go. When
there's still a traceback object referencing this stack frame, we
don't want the local variables to disappear yet.
(Hmm... Shouldn't they be copied to the f_locals dictionary?)
- Use co->... instead of f->f_code->...; save an extra lookup of what
we already have in a local variable).
- Remove test for nlocals > 0 before setting fastlocals to
f->f_localsplus; 0 is a rare case and the assignment is safe even
then.
called with keyword arguments -- the keyword and value were leaked.
This affected for instance with a __call__() method.
Bug reported and fix supplied by Jim Fulton.
i.e., counting opcode frequencies, or (with DXPAIRS defined) opcode
pair frequencies. Define DYNAMIC_EXECUTION_PROFILE on the command
line (for this file and for sysmodule.c) to enable.
table which is incorporated in the code object. This way, the runtime
overhead to keep track of line numbers is only incurred when an
exception has to be reported.
This is safe now that both intrcheck() and signalmodule.c schedule a
sigcheck() call via Py_AddPendingCall().
This gives another 7% speedup (never run such a test twice ;-).
