[Cython] Cython 0.17.3 released

2012-12-14 Thread Stefan Behnel
Hi all,

I'm happy to announce the next bug fix release of the current stable Cython
0.17 series: 0.17.3. It fixes two crash bugs, for weakrefs and for the
cleanup code on interpreter shutdown, so if you are using these features,
you might want to upgrade.

http://cython.org/release/Cython-0.17.3.tar.gz
http://cython.org/release/Cython-0.17.3.zip

github:

https://github.com/cython/cython/commit/1da2e2fa78504f2a01a999e6549d14219af62a1b

The release notes for the 0.17 series are here:

https://github.com/cython/cython/blob/0.17/CHANGES.rst

Have fun,

Stefan


Bugs fixed
--

* During final interpreter cleanup (with types cleanup enabled at compile
  time), extension types that inherit from base types over more than one
  level that were cimported from other modules could lead to a crash.
* Weak-reference support in extension types (with a "cdef __weakref__"
  attribute) generated incorrect deallocation code.
* In CPython 3.3, converting a Unicode character to the Py_UNICODE type
  could fail to raise an overflow for non-BMP characters that do not fit
  into a wchar_t on the current platform.
* Negative C integer constants lost their longness suffix in the generated
  C code.

I'm sure it's not - the compile time package resolution code in Cython was
written long before namespace packages were even being thought about. (For
comparison, remember that almost none of the existing CPython versions
supports namespaces packages either, 3.3 is the only exception).

Basically, the runtime import code should be ok, but the package resolution
at compile time, that is used mainly for cimports and for figuring out the
fully qualified module name of compiled modules, doesn't have any support
for packages that don't have an __init__.py.

Would you care to change that? You could try to come up with a patch, we'd
certainly appreciate it.

Stefan
