New submission from Julian Andres Klode <j...@jak-linux.org>: The given example function initspam fails if an
Based on some experience with my own code, I have found out that the function import_spam() fails when the module is not importable. In this case, it returns 0, although it should return -1 when an error occurs. This causes a standalone program to crash if it has a main() function like: Py_Initialize(); if (import_spam() < 0) { Py_Finalize(); return 1; } Py_Finalize(); The function should return -1, so we can know there is an error and are able to handle it. ---------- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation messages: 90325 nosy: georg.brandl, jak severity: normal status: open title: import_spam() in extending python can fail without setting the error. type: crash versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6446> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
