STINNER Victor added the comment: "When we completely switch Windows builds over to VC14, we're going to encounter some new assert dialogs from the CRT. (...) A number of tests attempt operations on bad file descriptors, which will assert and terminate in MSVCRT (I have a fix for the termination coming, but the assertions will still appear)."
Can you give some examples of tests which fail with an assertion error? _PyVerify_fd() doesn't protect use against the assertion error? I would prefer to keep CRT error checks, to protect us against bugs. -- Instead of patching faulthandler, you should patch test.support.SuppressCrashReport.__enter__. This function already calls SetErrorMode(). Instead of ctypes, the function may be exposed in the _winapi module for example. I'm talking about SetErrorMode() *and* _CrtSetReportMode(). +#if defined MS_WINDOWS && defined _DEBUG + if ((p = Py_GETENV("PYTHONNOCRTASSERT")) && *p != '\0') { + _CrtSetReportMode(_CRT_ASSERT, 0); + } +#endif The function is not available if _DEBUG is not defined? Why not calling the function if _DEBUG is not defined? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23314> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
