/* Error handling -- see also run.c */

|
|
/* New error handling interface.
|
|
|
|
The following problem exists (existed): methods of built-in modules
|
|
are called with 'self' and 'args' arguments, but without a context
|
|
argument, so they have no way to raise a specific exception.
|
|
The same is true for the object implementations: no context argument.
|
|
The old convention was to set 'errno' and to return NULL.
|
|
The caller (usually call_function() in eval.c) detects the NULL
|
|
return value and then calls puterrno(ctx) to turn the errno value
|
|
into a true exception. Problems with this approach are:
|
|
- it used standard errno values to indicate Python-specific errors,
|
|
but this means that when such an error code is reported by UNIX the
|
|
user gets a confusing message
|
|
- errno is a global variable, which makes extensions to a multi-
|
|
threading environment difficult; e.g., in IRIX, multi-threaded
|
|
programs must use the function getoserror() (sp.?) instead of
|
|
looking in errno
|
|
- there is no portable way to add new error numbers for specic
|
|
situations -- the value space for errno is reserved to the OS, yet
|
|
the way to turn module-specific errors into a module-specific
|
|
exception requires module-specific values for errno
|
|
- there is no way to add a more situation-specific message to an
|
|
error.
|
|
|
|
The new interface solves all these problems. To return an error, a
|
|
built-in function calls err_set(exception), err_set(valexception,
|
|
value) or err_setstr(exception, string), and returns NULL. These
|
|
functions save the value for later use by puterrno(). To adapt this
|
|
scheme to a multi-threaded environment, only the implementation of
|
|
err_setval() has to be changed.
