New submission from Christian Theune: I run long-running server processes (web apps, etc) a lot and I keep encountering the situation that many applications will not properly deal with MemoryError exceptions but end up in an unusable state.
>From an operational perspective I wish the process in this case would just >fail and exit. I talked to Guido about this general idea at EuroPython2012 and he encouraged me to look into this. Here's a patch: https://bitbucket.org/ctheune/cpython/changeset/323bb572344d46df669d3dbec4431cf6720fc5b4 I think it does what I want it to do, but a) my C knowledge is really bad and b) I'm not sure whether this is the right approach anyway. I'd appreciate feedback and possibly inclusion in the core. ---------- components: Interpreter Core hgrepos: 158 messages: 174413 nosy: ctheune, gvanrossum priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Introduce option to force the interpreter to exit upon MemoryErrors type: enhancement versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16381> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
