Category: Python Interpreter Core Group: Python 2.5 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 8 Submitted By: Neil Schemenauer (nascheme) Assigned to: Phillip J. Eby (pje) Summary: gen_send_ex: Assertion `f->f_back != ((void *)0)' failed. Initial Comment: Triggering is trival. Create a script that contains: def f(): yield 1 g = f() Run with a debug version of Python: python: ../Objects/genobject.c:85: gen_send_ex: Assertion `f->f_back != ((void *)0)' failed. Aborted (core dumped) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Phillip J. Eby (pje) Date: 2005-08-13 03:29 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=56214 Sadly, this is not the cause of the IDLE problem, because it's the assert that's wrong here. The problem that's occurring is that f->f_back is NULL because the final garbage collection at shutdown is occurring with a NULL tstate->frame. Changing the assert to check that f->f_back==tstate->frame makes the (meaningless) error go away. Basically, the problem here is because this code used to be the iternext routine, and it was never called by the GC. Now, generators are closed when they are garbage collected, so they can be executed during interpreter shutdown. I've checked in a corrected assertion. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Raymond Hettinger (rhettinger) Date: 2005-08-13 00:09 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=80475 I believe this is related to IDLE crash that I've been seeing. The problem did not occur just before the checkin: cvs up -D "2005-08-01 18:00" But emerged immediately after: cvs up -D "2005-08-01 21:00" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1257960&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
