Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Windows Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Peter Klotz (pete_icoserve) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: python.exe 2.4.2 compiled with VS2005 crashes Initial Comment: The C runtime library shipped with Visual Studio 2005 performs strict checking of parameters. In function initsignal() in file Modules\signalmodule.c, an iteration over all signals from 1 to NSIG is performed. The function PyOS_getsig() is called with each of these integer values. PyOS_getsig() then calls signal() with the given value which leads to the crash. According to signal.h from VS2005 only these signals are allowed: #define SIGINT 2 #define SIGILL 4 #define SIGABRT_COMPAT 6 #define SIGFPE 8 #define SIGSEGV 11 #define SIGTERM 15 #define SIGBREAK 21 #define SIGABRT 22 A solution would be to restrict the loop in initsignal() to the above values under Windows. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Michael Hudson (mwh) Date: 2005-10-03 14:05 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=6656 Is VS2005 actually out now then? This behaviour violates the C standard, as far as we can tell, so we when VS2005 was in beta we hoped that they would fix it for the final release. If it is released, though, I guess we need to do something like you suggest (along with some colourful comments, I guess). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1311784&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
