Also fixes li_std_vector_enum testcase when run with -threads.
Patch supplied on swig-devel mailing list on 12 Sep with details...
==============================================
I just wanted to mention that I found a crash issue in bug..
I am using SWIG 2.0.11 with python and have –threads enabled. I have a C++ std::vector that I instantiate in SWIG with %template. I also have a method in a class that returns this vector. I also include std_vector.i, btw..
When I iterate like so:
children = Action.getActionList()
for child in children:
pass
Everything is fine..
When I iterate like this:
for child in Action.getActionList()
pass
Product crashes.
The problem is the following. This code gets called first:
SWIGINTERN PyObject *_wrap_delete_SwigPyIterator(PyObject *SWIGUNUSEDPARM(self), PyObject *args) {
PyObject *resultobj = 0;
swig::SwigPyIterator *arg1 = (swig::SwigPyIterator *) 0 ;
void *argp1 = 0 ;
int res1 = 0 ;
PyObject * obj0 = 0 ;
if(!PyArg_UnpackTuple(args,(char *)"delete_SwigPyIterator",1,1,&obj0)) SWIG_fail;
res1 = SWIG_ConvertPtr(obj0, &argp1,SWIGTYPE_p_swig__SwigPyIterator, SWIG_POINTER_DISOWN | 0 );
if (!SWIG_IsOK(res1)) {
SWIG_exception_fail(SWIG_ArgError(res1), "in method '" "delete_SwigPyIterator" "', argument " "1"" of type '" "swig::SwigPyIterator *""'");
}
arg1 = reinterpret_cast< swig::SwigPyIterator * >(argp1);
{
SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_BEGIN_ALLOW;
delete arg1;
SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_END_ALLOW;
}
resultobj = SWIG_Py_Void();
return resultobj;
fail:
return NULL;
}
Note the SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_BEGIN_ALLOW/END_ALLOW. In between those two statements, we delete arg1. That in turn will eventually end up in this code:
namespace swig {
class SwigPtr_PyObject {
protected:
PyObject *_obj;
public:
… snip! …
~SwigPtr_PyObject()
{
Py_XDECREF(_obj);
}
Uh-oh! We call Py_XDECREF when we aren’t supposed to because we are in a SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_BEGIN_ALLOW/END_ALLOW section!
This takes care of the issue:
namespace swig {
class SwigPtr_PyObject {
protected:
PyObject *_obj;
public:
… snip! …
~SwigPtr_PyObject()
{
SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_BEGIN_BLOCK;
Py_XDECREF(_obj);
SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_END_BLOCK;
}
There are several other methods in this class that use the Python API, but don’t have the BEGIN/END block defined. I’m not sure if they are required for all of them, but I believe they are..
I have attached a modified pyclasses.swg with what I believe are the correct changes. This code is from 2.0.11, but as far as I can tell, it’s the same as what is in 3.0.2…
Apologies for not doing more here (making/running tests, getting it in the code repository, etc..), but I’m under some pressure to get some unrelated things done…
director method - PHP NULL gets returned by the subclassed method
in this case, so the directorout typemap needs to allow that (at
least if an exception is active).
- in configure.ac: modify sed expression to only look at first line of
gccgo --version, extract the last numeric token, and remove periods;
this parses e.g. "gccgo (Debian 4.7.2-5) 4.7.2"
- in goruntime.swg: fix typo in __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ (SF Bug #1298)
- in Lib/gcj/cni.i: remove JvAllocObject(), change
JvCreateJavaVM() argument from void* to JvVMInitArgs*
- in Examples/{python|perl5|ruby|tcl}/java/Makefile:
pass full class name to gcjh, add Example.h as dependency,
do not override CXX for compiling C++ sources
- in Examples/python/java/example.i:
add destructor to class to prevent memory loss complaint
C#/Java - Enums which have been ignored via %ignore and are subsequently
used are handled slightly differently. Type wrapper classes are now generated
which are effectively a wrapper of an empty enum. Previously in Java uncompilable
code was generated and in C# an int was used.
For D, this fixes a segfault in SWIG.
Java, C#, D, Go now produce code that compiles, although the definition of the
enum is needed in order to use the enum properly from the target language.
Fixes problem with method overloading when some methods are added by %extend
and others are real methods and using template default parameters with smart pointers.
This is noticeable as a regression since 2.0.12 when using the default smart pointer
handling for some languages when the smart pointer wraps std::map and other STL containers.
Fixes SF Bug 1363
