* object.[ch], bltinmodule.c, fileobject.c: changed str() to call strobject() which calls an object's __str__ method if it has one. strobject() is also called by writeobject() when PRINT_RAW is passed. * ceval.c: rationalize code for PRINT_ITEM (no change in function!) * funcobject.c, codeobject.c: added compare and hash functionality. Functions with identical code objects and the same global dictionary are equal. Code objects are equal when their code, constants list and names list are identical (i.e. the filename and code name don't count). (hash doesn't work yet since the constants are in a list and lists can't be hashed -- suppose this should really be done with a tuple now we have resizetuple!)

|
|
|
|
Objects are structures allocated on the heap. Special rules apply to
|
|
the use of objects to ensure they are properly garbage-collected.
|
|
Objects are never allocated statically or on the stack; they must be
|
|
accessed through special macros and functions only. (Type objects are
|
|
exceptions to the first rule; the standard types are represented by
|
|
statically initialized type objects.)
|
|
|
|
An object has a 'reference count' that is increased or decreased when a
|
|
pointer to the object is copied or deleted; when the reference count
|
|
reaches zero there are no references to the object left and it can be
|
|
removed from the heap.
|
|
|
|
An object has a 'type' that determines what it represents and what kind
|
|
of data it contains. An object's type is fixed when it is created.
|
|
Types themselves are represented as objects; an object contains a
|
|
pointer to the corresponding type object. The type itself has a type
|
|
pointer pointing to the object representing the type 'type', which
|
|
contains a pointer to itself!).
|
|
|
|
Objects do not float around in memory; once allocated an object keeps
|
|
the same size and address. Objects that must hold variable-size data
|
|
can contain pointers to variable-size parts of the object. Not all
|
|
objects of the same type have the same size; but the size cannot change
|
|
after allocation. (These restrictions are made so a reference to an
|
|
object can be simply a pointer -- moving an object would require
|
|
updating all the pointers, and changing an object's size would require
|
|
moving it if there was another object right next to it.)
|
|
|
|
Objects are always accessed through pointers of the type 'object *'.
|
|
The type 'object' is a structure that only contains the reference count
|
|
and the type pointer. The actual memory allocated for an object
|
|
contains other data that can only be accessed after casting the pointer
|
|
to a pointer to a longer structure type. This longer type must start
|
|
with the reference count and type fields; the macro OB_HEAD should be
|
|
used for this (to accomodate for future changes). The implementation
|
|
of a particular object type can cast the object pointer to the proper
|
|
type and back.
|
|
|
|
A standard interface exists for objects that contain an array of items
|
|
whose size is determined when the object is allocated.

Type objects contain a string containing the type name (to help somewhat
|
|
in debugging), the allocation parameters (see newobj() and newvarobj()),
|
|
and methods for accessing objects of the type. Methods are optional,a
|
|
nil pointer meaning that particular kind of access is not available for
|
|
this type. The DECREF() macro uses the tp_dealloc method without
|
|
checking for a nil pointer; it should always be implemented except if
|
|
the implementation can guarantee that the reference count will never
|
|
reach zero (e.g., for type objects).
|
|
|
|
NB: the methods for certain type groups are now contained in separate
|
|
method blocks.

|
|
The macros INCREF(op) and DECREF(op) are used to increment or decrement
|
|
reference counts. DECREF calls the object's deallocator function; for
|
|
objects that don't contain references to other objects or heap memory
|
|
this can be the standard function free(). Both macros can be used
|
|
whereever a void expression is allowed. The argument shouldn't be a
|
|
NIL pointer. The macro NEWREF(op) is used only to initialize reference
|
|
counts to 1; it is defined here for convenience.
|
|
|
|
We assume that the reference count field can never overflow; this can
|
|
be proven when the size of the field is the same as the pointer size
|
|
but even with a 16-bit reference count field it is pretty unlikely so
|
|
we ignore the possibility. (If you are paranoid, make it a long.)
|
|
|
|
Type objects should never be deallocated; the type pointer in an object
|
|
is not considered to be a reference to the type object, to save
|
|
complications in the deallocation function. (This is actually a
|
|
decision that's up to the implementer of each new type so if you want,
|
|
you can count such references to the type object.)
|
|
|
|
*** WARNING*** The DECREF macro must have a side-effect-free argument
|
|
since it may evaluate its argument multiple times. (The alternative
|
|
would be to mace it a proper function or assign it to a global temporary
|
|
variable first, both of which are slower; and in a multi-threaded
|
|
environment the global variable trick is not safe.)

More conventions
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
Argument Checking
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Functions that take objects as arguments normally don't check for nil
|
|
arguments, but they do check the type of the argument, and return an
|
|
error if the function doesn't apply to the type.
|
|
|
|
Failure Modes
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Functions may fail for a variety of reasons, including running out of
|
|
memory. This is communicated to the caller in two ways: an error string
|
|
is set (see errors.h), and the function result differs: functions that
|
|
normally return a pointer return NULL for failure, functions returning
|
|
an integer return -1 (which could be a legal return value too!), and
|
|
other functions return 0 for success and -1 for failure.
|
|
Callers should always check for errors before using the result.
|
|
|
|
Reference Counts
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
It takes a while to get used to the proper usage of reference counts.
|
|
|
|
Functions that create an object set the reference count to 1; such new
|
|
objects must be stored somewhere or destroyed again with DECREF().
|
|
Functions that 'store' objects such as settupleitem() and dictinsert()
|
|
don't increment the reference count of the object, since the most
|
|
frequent use is to store a fresh object. Functions that 'retrieve'
|
|
objects such as gettupleitem() and dictlookup() also don't increment
|
|
the reference count, since most frequently the object is only looked at
|
|
quickly. Thus, to retrieve an object and store it again, the caller
|
|
must call INCREF() explicitly.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: functions that 'consume' a reference count like dictinsert() even
|
|
consume the reference if the object wasn't stored, to simplify error
|
|
handling.
|
|
|
|
It seems attractive to make other functions that take an object as
|
|
argument consume a reference count; however this may quickly get
|
|
confusing (even the current practice is already confusing). Consider
|
|
it carefully, it may safe lots of calls to INCREF() and DECREF() at
|
|
times.
