Tim Lesher <tles...@gmail.com> added the comment: I just hit this one myself, and was about to write a bug and patch.
On reviewing the patch: 1. This really has the same issue as the original code: it detects one of a few known return values, and will infinitely loop on an unexpected return value. It would be better to explicitly check for 0 (continue), E_EOF (exit normally), and any other result (exit abnormally). 2. I don't think you want to unconditionally call PyErr_Print(), because you don't know for sure that an exception is set. 3. Returning 0 from PyRun_InteractiveLoopFlags() when an error occurs is a behavior change, which makes its documentation incorrect (meaning there should also be a doc patch). But to be honest, I don't think it's correct to return 0 in this case. It seems better to return the actual error code (which also requires a doc patch) If you don't have time to update the patch, let me know and I'll put one together. ---------- nosy: +tlesher _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8070> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
