  • Debugging Reference Count Problems

    ...repr on it just before I need it? Could this be a problem with refcounting objects inserted in the dictionary (doesn't seem likely given that PyDict_SetItem is said to store it's own references to objects). As I said, it's not the printing, it's the repr() call. I don't expect repr() to save a reference to your object, unless you implemented the object type yourself (then it could be a bug in your tp_repr or tp_str function). 3) Anyone else becoming _really_ interested in a b...

  • Python 1.6

    ...repr() functions are now different more often. For long integers, str() no longer appends a 'L'. Thus, str(1L) == '1', which used to be '1L'; repr(1L) is unchanged and still returns '1L'. For floats, repr() now gives 17 digits of precision, to ensure no precision is lost (on all current hardware). The -X option is gone. Built-in exceptions are now always classes. Many more library modules also have been converted to class-based exceptions. Binary Incompatibiliti...
