STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@gmail.com> added the comment: I wrote a new "_PyInitError" type to report more information when something goes wrong:
* indicate if it's an user error: don't abort() in that case * function name where the error was raised * error message Example: --- $ PYTHONHASHSEED=x ./python Fatal Python error: _Py_HashRandomization_Init: PYTHONHASHSEED must be "random" or an integer in range [0; 4294967295] --- => Python doesn't fail with abort() anymore => notice the new "_Py_HashRandomization_Init" function name which gives context to the error message Previously, Python called abort() and so might dump a core file: --- $ PYTHONHASHSEED=x python3 Fatal Python error: PYTHONHASHSEED must be "random" or an integer in range [0; 4294967295] Aborted (core dumped) --- ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32030> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
