Category: Core (C code) Group: Python 2.3 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Michael Stone (mbrierst) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: fix bug #670311: sys.exit and PYTHONINSPECT Initial Comment: So we want to stop SystemExit from causing an actual exit() when using python -i. This patch introduces two new API calls, PyRun_BlockSysExit and PyRun_UnblockSysExit, to set a flag toavoid the exit() call in PyErr_PrintEx. There are several other ways to fix this bug, but I think all of the others I came up with would cause more backwards compatibilty problems and/or be a lot more work. Some possibilities, if anyone is interested, would be: 1) Add a new PyCompilerFlags flag This seems a bit ugly, as it's not really a "compile flag". 2) Add some special run routines that block the exit. 3) Add another parameter to existing run routines. 4) Change PyErr_PrintEx so it doesn't exit when printing a SystemError, instead having the run routines responsible for exiting when catching that exception. What do you think? Is my patch good enough, or would you like something else? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Georg Brandl (gbrandl) Date: 2007-03-07 00:35 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=849994 Originator: NO Committed a variant as rev. 54188. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Georg Brandl (birkenfeld) Date: 2005-02-23 18:29 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1188172 While it works for me, I am not sure whether this is too much overhead for fixing a glitch no one else complained about. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=697613&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
