New submission from Gregory P. Smith: If a bsddb.db.DB object is closed before any DBCursor objects referencing it are closed, python will crash when the cursors are closed or deleted.
Workaround: never close a database with open cursors. this is annoying in unittest code where a tearDown method closes the DB in the exception handling path on a test failure before the cursors have been closed or garbage collected. I've got a test in my sandbox, I'll check it in with the fix as its a crasher otherwise. ---------- assignee: gregory.p.smith components: Extension Modules messages: 56383 nosy: gregory.p.smith severity: normal status: open title: bsddb closing a DB object before all DBCursors using it are closed crashes type: crash __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1275> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
