New submission from Karthikeyan Singaravelan <tir.kar...@gmail.com>:
I was looking into format issues and came across msg99839 . The example causes segfault in master, 3.7 and 3.6 branches. This used to pass in 3.7 and 3.6. I searched for open issues and cannot come across an issue for this. I guess this is caused due to issue33954 which adds an assert as I can see from the segfault. Compiling in release mode works fine but debug build fails. Are asserts removed in release builds? $ python3.7 Python 3.7.1rc2 (v3.7.1rc2:6c06ef7dc3, Oct 13 2018, 05:10:29) [Clang 6.0 (clang-600.0.57)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> format(float(123), "00") '123.0' Master master $ ./python.exe Python 3.8.0a0 (heads/35559:c1b4b0f616, Dec 22 2018, 15:00:08) [Clang 7.0.2 (clang-700.1.81)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> format(float(123), "00") Assertion failed: (0 <= min_width), function _PyUnicode_InsertThousandsGrouping, file Objects/unicodeobject.c, line 9394.

Commenting out the assert line gives me the correct result but I have limited knowledge of the C code and I guess release builds remove asserts where it cannot be reproduced? I am tagging issue33954 devs who might have a better understanding of this and there might be limited bandwidth for someone to look into this along with other cases since it's holiday season. # Release mode works fine ./python.exe -c 'print(format(float(123), "00"))' 123.0 ---------- messages: 332342 nosy: eric.smith, serhiy.storchaka, vstinner, xtreak priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: format(float(123), "00") causes segfault in debug builds type: crash versions: Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35560> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
