New submission from Thomas Wouters: unittest.installHandler incorrectly assumes signal.SIGINT will always be set to a callable object, rather than signal.SIG_DFL or signal.SIG_IGN. This breaks if the test is being executed in an environment that e.g. ignores signal.SIGINT, like a bash script that executes 'make' in a subshell, because an attempt to call the original handler (for whatever reason) causes it to try and call an integer.
On top of that, the *tests* for unittest.installHandler in unittest/tests/test_break.py assume not just that signal.SIGINT is set to a callable object, but that they're set to signal.default_int_handler. ---------- components: Tests messages: 166910 nosy: twouters priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: unittest.installHandler incorrectly assumes SIGINT handler is set. type: crash versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15505> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
