This is because PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefaultAndSize calls _PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE(), which already documents the potential NULL return value. /* Get the current interpreter state. The macro is unsafe: it does not check for error and it can return NULL. The caller must hold the GIL. See also _PyInterpreterState_Get() and _PyGILState_GetInterpreterStateUnsafe(). */ #define _PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE() (_PyThreadState_GET()->interp) > Python has a *very large* C API. It doesn't seem worth it to me to modify > every single Python function to detect when the API is misused. Understood, happy for this to be closed. Aware that I was misusing the API :-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36386> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
