New submission from STINNER Victor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: test_thread_state() doesn't check that the argument is a function and doesn't check function call result and so the exception is catched later:
Non callable argument: import _testcapi _testcapi._test_thread_state(10) # no exception raise here import gc # exception raised too late! => TypeError: 'int' object is not callable Callback error: import _testcapi def err(): raise ValueError("xxx") _testcapi._test_thread_state(err) # no exception raise here import gc # exception raised too late! => ValueError: xxx So I wrote a patch which fixes that but also raise_exception() which have to check that the argument is an exception class. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: testcapi_py26.patch keywords: patch messages: 71714 nosy: haypo severity: normal status: open title: Add more checks to testcapi type: feature request versions: Python 2.6, Python 3.0 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file11204/testcapi_py26.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3643> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
