I get this from valgrind (no suppression file but thgis probably is not covered by the suppressor anyway): ==6108== Invalid read of size 4 ==6108== at 0x48D19F4: lookdict_string (dictobject.c:359) ==6108== by 0x48D1B59: PyDict_GetItem (dictobject.c:554) ==6108== by 0x48B1657: instance_getattr2 (classobject.c:741) ==6108== by 0x48B701D: instance_getattr1 (classobject.c:725) ==6108== by 0x48B2670: instance_getattr (classobject.c:764) ==6108== by 0x48D6500: PyObject_GetAttr (object.c:1088) ==6108== by 0x48D6355: PyObject_GetAttrString (object.c:1031)
so i wonder if the PyObject i gave to PyObject_GetAttrString to gnaw on is in good shape. is assert(obj->ob_refcnt>0); a good way to check if i'm dealing with a valid PyObject or there is a helper that can do this for me? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
