From 272044897e178835f596c96740c5a1800ec6f9fb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Biesinger Date: Tue, 13 Aug 2019 14:48:05 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Make GDB compile with Python 3 on MinGW PyFile_FromString and PyFile_AsFile have been removed in Python 3. There is no obvious replacement that works here, and we can't just pass our FILE* to a DLL in Windows because it may use a different C runtime. So we just call a Python function which reads and executes file contents. Care must be taken to execute it in the context of __main__. Tested by inverting the ifdef and running the testsuite on Debian Linux (even without the patch, I failed at running the testsuite on Windows). I did test with both Python 2 and 3. gdb/ChangeLog: 2019-08-22 Christian Biesinger * python/lib/gdb/__init__.py (_execute_file): New function. * python/python.c (python_run_simple_file): Call gdb._execute_file on Windows. --- gdb/ChangeLog | 6 ++++++ gdb/python/lib/gdb/__init__.py | 26 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ gdb/python/python.c | 23 ++++++++++++++--------- 3 files changed, 46 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/gdb/ChangeLog b/gdb/ChangeLog index b6d200d3d8e..ac84245c340 100644 --- a/gdb/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,9 @@ +2019-08-22 Christian Biesinger + + * python/lib/gdb/__init__.py (_execute_file): New function. + * python/python.c (python_run_simple_file): Call gdb._execute_file + on Windows. + 2019-08-22 Andrew Burgess * f-exp.y (yylex): Remove is_a_field_of_this local variable, and diff --git a/gdb/python/lib/gdb/__init__.py b/gdb/python/lib/gdb/__init__.py index 8af9e47117e..9c23970f39a 100644 --- a/gdb/python/lib/gdb/__init__.py +++ b/gdb/python/lib/gdb/__init__.py @@ -106,6 +106,32 @@ def _execute_unwinders(pending_frame): return None +def _execute_file(filepath): + """This function is used to replace Python 2's PyRun_SimpleFile. + + Loads and executes the given file. + + We could use the runpy module, but its documentation says: + "Furthermore, any functions and classes defined by the executed code are + not guaranteed to work correctly after a runpy function has returned." + """ + globals = sys.modules['__main__'].__dict__ + set_file = False + # Set file (if not set) so that the imported file can use it (e.g. to + # access file-relative paths).
