run the test simultaneously. The simplest thing I found that worked
on both Windows and Unix was to use the PID. It's unique so should be
sufficient. This should prevent many of the spurious failures of
the automated tests since they run as different users.
Also cleanup the directory consistenly in the tearDown methods.
It would be nice if someone ensured that the directories are always
created with a consistent name.
NULL bytes it would cause the database all sorts of problems in the future
leading to very strange random failures and corrupt dbtables.bsdTableDb dbs.
keyword argument whenever possible to avoid bugs and confusion. (dbtables.py
line 447 self.db.get using txn as a non-keyword was an actual bug due to this)
string key (and probably a few other situations with string keys).
This was reported with a patch as pybsddb sourceforge bug 1708868 by
jjjhhhlll at gmail.
The problem is that _DB_get_type() can't be called without the GIL
because it calls a bunch of PyErr_* APIs when an error occurs.
There were no other cases in this file that it was called without the GIL.
Removing the BEGIN/END THREAD around _DB_get_type() made everything work.
Will backport.
now works reliably. It has been updated to use automatic BerkeleyDB
deadlock detection and the bsddb.dbutils.DeadlockWrap wrapper to retry
database calls that would previously deadlock. [SF python bug #775414]
aborts the db transaction safely when a modifier callback fails.
Fixes SF python patch/bug #1408584.
Also cleans up the bsddb.dbtables docstrings since thats the only
documentation that exists for that unadvertised module. (people
really should really just use sqlite3)
in BerkeleyDB >= 4.2 it tried to construct a list out of an uninitialized
char **log_list.
feature: export the DB_ARCH_REMOVE flag by name in the module on BerkeleyDB >= 4.2.
bsddb.*open() methods cachesize parameter wouldn't work (raised an
internal bsddb.db exception when it was given). The set_cachesize
call needed to be moved from the DB object to the DBEnv since the env
was introduced to allow for threading.
(will backport to 2.4)
Using None for a filename with the 'n' flag when calling bsddb.btopen
would cause an error while checking if the file None existed. error
not likely to be seen as anyone using None for a filename would likely
use the 'c' flag in the first place.
between a TestCase instance, the database it opened (or a cursor to a
database) and a bound method as a registered database callback, and a lack
of GC-handling in bsddb caused the TestCases to linger. Fix the test, for
now, as backward compatibility makes adding GC to bsddb annoying.
