New submission from aliles <aaron.i...@gmail.com>: Python 3.2 will exit with a segmentation fault if a byte string is used as a field name in a subclass of ctypes.Structure.
Python 3.2.2 (default, Dec 18 2011, 18:56:20) [GCC 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.1.00)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import ctypes >>> class Point(ctypes.Structure): ... _fields_ = ((b'x', ctypes.c_int), (b'y', ctypes.c_int)) ... Segmentation fault: 11 This also occurs if None or an int is used as the field name. I would expect that a TypeError exception would be raised if an attempt is made to use an invalid type for the field name. ---------- components: ctypes files: segfault.py messages: 158127 nosy: aliles priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Segmentation fault on ctypes.Structure subclass with byte string field names type: crash versions: Python 3.2 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file25189/segfault.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14563> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
