STINNER Victor added the comment: Hum, my explanation is maybe not clear.
Without the patch, the operation succeed, but a MemoryError is raised, and the caller is not notified. So you enter an inconsistent state because your function may "succeed" whereas an exception is set. With the patch, the operation succeed, but you get a MemoryError and the caller is notified of the failure. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19578> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
