Blanket wide to all .c and .h files. Some files originating from ST are
difficult to deal with (license wise) so it was left out of those.
Also merged modpyb.h, modos.h, modstm.h and modtime.h in stmhal/.
alloca() is declared in alloca.h which als happens to be included by stdlib.h.
On mingw however it resides in malloc.h only.
So if we include alloca.h directly, and add an alloca.h for mingw in it's port
directory we can get rid of the mingw-specific define to include malloc.h
and the other ports are happy as well.
That was easy - just avoid erroring out on seeing candidate dir for namespace
package. That's far from being complete though - namespace packages should
support importing portions of package from different sys.path entries, here
we require first matching entry to contain all namespace package's portions.
And yet, that's a way to put parts of the same Python package into multiple
installable package - something we really need for *Micro*Python.
Per https://docs.python.org/3.3/reference/import.html , this is the way to
tell module from package: "Specifically, any module that contains a __path__
attribute is considered a package." And it for sure will be needed to
implement relative imports.
Finishes addressing issue #424.
In the end this was a very neat refactor that now makes things a lot
more consistent across the py code base. It allowed some
simplifications in certain places, now that everything is a dict object.
Also converted builtins tables to dictionaries. This will be useful
when we need to turn builtins into a proper module.
Pretty much everyone needs to include map.h, since it's such an integral
part of the Micro Python object implementation. Thus, the definitions
are now in obj.h instead. map.h is removed.
Mostly just a global search and replace. Except rt_is_true which
becomes mp_obj_is_true.
Still would like to tidy up some of the names, but this will do for now.
http://docs.python.org/3.3/library/functions.html#__import__ :
"When the name variable is of the form package.module, normally, the
top-level package (the name up till the first dot) is returned, not
the module named by name. However, when a non-empty fromlist argument
is given, the module named by name is returned."
Each built-in exception is now a type, with base type BaseException.
C exceptions are created by passing a pointer to the exception type to
make an instance of. When raising an exception from the VM, an
instance is created automatically if an exception type is raised (as
opposed to an exception instance).
Exception matching (RT_BINARY_OP_EXCEPTION_MATCH) is now proper.
Handling of parse error changed to match new exceptions.
mp_const_type renamed to mp_type_type for consistency.
sys.path is not initialized by rt_init(), that's left for platform-specific
startup code. (For example, bare metal port may have some hardcoded defaults,
and let user change sys.path directly; while port for OS with environment
feature can take path from environment). If it's not explicitly initialized,
modules will be imported only from a current directory.
