Category: Extension Modules Group: Python 2.2.2 Status: Open Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Douglas Napoleone (derivin) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Py_Main() does not perform to spec Initial Comment: I consider this a code bug, not a documentation issue as the documentation is the behavior we want. >From http://www.python.org/doc/current/api/veryhigh.html#l2h- 47 : int Py_Main(int argc, char **argv) The main program for the standard interpreter. This is made available for programs which embed Python. The argc and argv parameters should be prepared exactly as those which are passed to a C program's main() function. It is important to note that the argument list may be modified (but the contents of the strings pointed to by the argument list are not). The return value will be the integer passed to the sys.exit() function, 1 if the interpreter exits due to an exception, or 2 if the parameter list does not represent a valid Python command line. I have checked the code for 2.2, 2.2.1, 2.2.2, and r2.3al In all cases the code will call exit(2) in C when an improper commandline is given instead of returning 2. ALL exit() calls should be removed from this module. The return value should be passed to exit or returned from main() by the caller of Py_Main() and NOT from within this call. python.c's main() would not need to be changed as it already does this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Facundo Batista (facundobatista) Date: 2005-01-11 00:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=752496 Effectively closing it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Douglas Napoleone (derivin) Date: 2003-04-21 15:33 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=541557 Patch was applied, just closing ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Douglas Napoleone (derivin) Date: 2003-01-21 17:50 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=541557 The max recursion limit problem in the re module is well-known.
