Two independent changes (oops): · dcc0c13f

Guido van Rossum authored Aug 29, 1997

- Changed semantics for initialized flag (again); forget the ref
counting, forget the fatal errors -- redundant calls to
Py_Initialize() or Py_Finalize() calls are simply ignored.

- Automatically import site.py on initialization, unless a flag is set
not to do this by main().

that class based exceptions are enabled by default.  -X disables them

Removed obsolete exception PyExc_AccessError. · 757af0e7

Barry Warsaw authored Aug 29, 1997

Added PyErr_MemoryErrorInst to hold the pre-instantiated instance when
using class based exceptions.

Simplified the creation of all built-in exceptions, both class based
and string based.  Actually, for class based exceptions, the string
ones are still created just in case there's a problem creating the
class based ones (so you still get *some* exception handling!).  Now
the init and fini functions run through a list of structure elements,
creating the strings (and optionally classes) for every entry.

initerrors(): the new base class exceptions StandardError,
LookupError, and NumberError are initialized when using string
exceptions, to tuples containing the list of derived string
exceptions.  This GvR trick enables forward compatibility!  One bit of
nastiness is that the C code has to know the inheritance tree embodied
in exceptions.py.

Added the two phase init and fini functions.

the -X command line option.

Py_Initialize(): Handle the two phase initialization of the built-in
module.

Py_Finalize(): Handle the two phase finalization of the built-in
module.

parse_syntax_error(): New function which parses syntax errors that
PyErr_Print() will catch.  This correctly parses such errors
regardless of whether PyExc_SyntaxError is an old-style string
exception or new-fangled class exception.

PyErr_Print(): Many changes:

    1. Normalize the exception.

    2. Handle SystemExit exceptions which might be class based.  Digs
       the exit code out of the "code" attribute.  String based
       SystemExit is handled the same as before.

    3. Handle SyntaxError exceptions which might be class based.  Digs
       the various information bits out of the instance's attributes
       (see parse_syntax_error() for details).  String based
       SyntaxError still works too.

    4. Don't write the `:' after the exception if the exception is
       class based and has an empty string str() value.

PyErr_NoMemory(): If the pre-instantiated memory exception is non-null · 2d8adff1

(PyExc_MemoryErrorInst) raise this instead of PyExc_MemoryError.  This
only happens when exception classes are enabled (e.g. when Python is
