James added the comment: It turns out I don't really understand how frame objects work. My patch can crash python if you do this:
>>> class A: ... def f(*args): ... args = 1 ... print(super()) ... >>> A().f() python: Objects/typeobject.c:6516: super_init: Assertion `((((((PyObject*)(obj))->ob_type))->tp_flags & ((1L<<26))) != 0)' failed. Aborted Is there a way of checking if the first argument has been overwritten, or do you just have to assume that if it is still a tuple, it hasn't been? Should the super documentation mention that assigning to self (or args in this case) can make the no-argument version work incorrectly? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15753> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
