If micropython.native decorator doesn't compile, then we skill all
native/viper tests.
This patch also re-enables the ujson_loads test on NT.
Addresses issue #861, and partially addresses issue #856.
In CPython IOError (and EnvironmentError) is deprecated and aliased to
OSError. All modules that used to raise IOError now raise OSError (or a
derived exception).
In Micro Python we never used IOError (except 1 place, incorrectly) and
so don't need to keep it.
See http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3151/ for background.
Viper can now do the following:
def store(p:ptr8, c:int):
p[0] = c
This does a store of c to the memory pointed to by p using a machine
instructions inline in the code.
For the sake of older versions of gcc (and other compilers), don't use
the #warning CPP directive, nor the -Wno-error=cpp option.
Also, fix a strict alias warning in modffi.c for older compilers, and
add a test for ffi module.
Addresses issue #847.
Previously, mpz was restricted to using at most 15 bits in each digit,
where a digit was a uint16_t.
With this patch, mpz can use all 16 bits in the uint16_t (improvement
to mpn_div was required). This gives small inprovements in speed and
RAM usage. It also yields savings in ROM code size because all of the
digit masking operations become no-ops.
Also, mpz can now use a uint32_t as the digit type, and hence use 32
bits per digit. This will give decent improvements in mpz speed on
64-bit machines.
Test for big integer division added.
Because (for Thumb) a function pointer has the LSB set, pointers to
dynamic functions in RAM (eg native, viper or asm functions) were not
being traced by the GC. This patch is a comprehensive fix for this.
Addresses issue #820.
Multiplication of a tuple, list, str or bytes now yields an empty
sequence (instead of crashing). Addresses issue #799
Also added ability to mult bytes on LHS by integer.
Can now index ranges with integers and slices, and reverse ranges
(although reversing is not very efficient).
Not sure how useful this stuff is, but gets us closer to having all of
Python's builtins.
reversed function now implemented, and works for tuple, list, str, bytes
and user objects with __len__ and __getitem__.
Renamed mp_builtin_len to mp_obj_len to make it publically available (eg
for reversed).
With unicode enabled, this patch allows reading a fixed number of
characters from text-mode streams; eg file.read(5) will read 5 unicode
chars, which can made of more than 5 bytes.
For an ASCII stream (ie no chars > 127) it only needs to do 1 read. If
there are lots of non-ASCII chars in a stream, then it needs multiple
reads of the underlying object.
Adds a new test for this case. Enables unicode support by default on
unix and stmhal ports.
This script uses expected test results as generated by run-tests --write-exp,
and requires only standard unix shell funtionality (no bash). It is useful
to run testsuite on embedded systems, where there's no CPython and Bash.
Both "bound" (like, length known) and "unbound" (length unknown) are tested.
All of list, tuple, bytes, bytesarray offer approximately the same
performance, with "unbound" case being 30 times slower.
This will allow roughly the same behavior as Python3 for non-ASCII strings,
for example, print("<phrase in non-Latin script>".split()) will print list
of words, not weird hex dump (like Python2 behaves). (Of course, that it
will print list of words, if there're "words" in that phrase at all, separated
by ASCII-compatible whitespace; that surely won't apply to every human
language in existence).
Functionality we provide in builtin io module is fairly minimal. Some
code, including CPython stdlib, depends on more functionality. So, there's
a choice to either implement it in C, or move it _io, and let implement other
functionality in Python. 2nd choice is pursued. This setup matches CPython
too (_io is builtin, io is Python-level).
See http://bugs.python.org/issue19995 for rationale. As micropython currently
aims for Python 3.3 compatibility I have not changed behaviour, but this
change allows the test suite to be run against a newer Python without having
spurious failures.
Add keyword args to dict.update(), and ability to take a dictionary as
argument.
dict() class constructor can now use dict.update() directly.
This patch loses fast path for dict(other_dict), but is that really
needed? Any anyway, this idiom will now re-hash the dictionary, so is
arguably more memory efficient.
Addresses issue #647.
This is not fully correct re: error handling, because we should check that
that types are used consistently (only str's or only bytes), but magically
makes lot of functions support bytes.
Two things are handled here: allow to compare native subtypes of tuple,
e.g. namedtuple (TODO: should compare type too, currently compared
duck-typedly by content). Secondly, allow user sunclasses of tuples
(and its subtypes) be compared either. "Magic" I did previously in
objtype.c covers only one argument (lhs is many), so we're in trouble
when lhs is native type - there's no other option besides handling
rhs in special manner. Fortunately, this patch outlines approach with
fast path for native types.
This was hit when trying to make urlparse.py from stdlib run. Took
quite some time to debug.
TODO: Reconsile bound method creation process better, maybe callable is
to generic type to bind at all?
"object" type in MicroPython currently doesn't implement any methods, and
hopefully, we'll try to stay like that for as long as possible. Even if we
have to add something eventually, look up from there might be handled in
adhoc manner, as last resort (that's not compliant with Python3 MRO, but
we're already non-compliant). Hence: 1) no need to spend type trying to
lookup anything in object; 2) no need to allocate subobject when explicitly
inheriting from object; 3) and having multiple bases inheriting from object
is not a case of incompatible multiple inheritance.
You can now do:
X = const(123)
Y = const(456 + X)
and the compiler will replace X and Y with their values.
See discussion in issue #266 and issue #573.
... and we have not that bad mapping type after all - lookup time is ~ the
same as in one-attr instance. My namedtuple implementation on the other
hand degrades awfully.
So, need to rework it. First observation is that named tuple fields are
accessed as attributes, so all names are interned at the program start.
Then, really should store field array as qstr[], and do quick 32/64 bit
scan thru it.
Need to have a policy as to how far we go adding keyword support to
built ins. It's nice to have, and gets better CPython compatibility,
but hurts the micro nature of uPy.
Addresses issue #577.
