New submission from STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@gmail.com>: Lib/test/crashers/nasty_eq_vs_dict.py does crash Python because of an infinite loop in the dictionary lookup. The script modifies the dictionary at each lookup, whereas Python tries a new lookup each time that the dictionary is modified.
I proposed to make the lookup fail with a RuntimeError if the dictionary has been modified during a lookup. It should not occur if you are not doing something evil. ---------- components: Interpreter Core files: dict_lookup.patch keywords: patch messages: 154976 nosy: haypo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Raise an error if a dict is modified during a lookup versions: Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file24740/dict_lookup.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14205> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
