New submission from Oren Milman: The following code causes ElementTree.Element.__deepcopy__() to raise a SystemError:
class BadMemo: def get(*args): return None import xml.etree.ElementTree xml.etree.ElementTree.Element('foo').__deepcopy__(BadMemo()) this is because _elementtree_Element___deepcopy__() (in Modules/_elementtree.c) assumes that memo is a dictionary, and passes it to PyDict_SetItem(), which raises the SystemError. ---------- components: XML messages: 301953 nosy: Oren Milman priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: ElementTree.Element.__deepcopy__() raises a SystemError in case of a bad memo type: behavior versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue31428> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
