How can I tell if an object in a ZODB is being activated? Concerns zope.app.module.importer.
by Ross Patterson 04 Aug '07

04 Aug '07

I'm working on zope.app.module.ZopePersistentModuleImporter. As noted in zodbcode.module.PersistentModuleImporter.__doc__, if the persistent module registry which is consulted on import queries a persistent site manager then the site manager must be activated before being queried or a circular import problem occurs when the ZODB attempts to import the globals necessary to activate the site manager. The site manager will, however, eventually be deactivated, by a transaction.abort() for example. So I'm looking for a way that the importer can know whether or now it's being called as a part of activating the site manager. I've written (and attached diffs for) a very ugly function that inspects the frame stack to detect if the site manager is being activated just to demonstrate what I'm looking for. Is there a way to ask an object if it's being activated? Or what might be a better approach to solving this problem? Ross

Is "if sys.exc_info()[2].tb_next is not None: raise" Evil? Concerns Products.GenericSetup, zope.configuration and others
by Ross Patterson 03 Aug '07

03 Aug '07

While trying to use zope.app.modul.ZopePersistentModuleImporter, I ran across an interaction with code that uses the following hack to try and discern where an exception was raised. >>> if sys.exc_info()[2].tb_next is not None: >>> raise The problem is occurs when an application provides an __import__ function written in python. In that case then there is a tb_next for all ImportError exceptions and this hack no longer indicates when the error was deeper. The same problem would occur if the hack were used while catching AttributeError and there was a python implementation for attribute access involved. This hack counts on the fact that C code which raises an error doesn't get included in the stack. It counts on this fact, however, at points where Python specifically allows application specific implementations written in Python. See the first paragraph of the __import__ documentation. http://docs.python.org/lib/built-in-funcs.html#l2h-6 Here's a grep of the Zope 2.10 branch. These first two are catching TypeError: ./Zope/lib/python/zope/component/_api.py:73: if sys.exc_info()[2].tb_next is not None: ./Zope/lib/python/zope/interface/interface.py:644: if sys.exc_info()[2].tb_next is not None: And these are catching ImportError: ./Zope/lib/python/zope/configuration/config.py:186: if sys.exc_info()[2].tb_next is not None: ./Zope/lib/python/zope/configuration/config.py:208: if sys.exc_info()[2].tb_next is not None: For zope.configuration.config.ConfigurationContext.resolve, this hack makes the difference between an ImportError being raised or a ConfigurationError. This inturn interacts with zope.app.component.back35.LayerField.fromUnicode which only catches ConfigurationError and doesn't catch ImportError. And here's the GenericSetup 1.3 branch, it is also catching ImportError: ./Products/GenericSetup/utils.py:89: if sys.exc_info()[2].tb_next is not None: raise Products.GenericSetup.utils._resolveDottedName is particularly troublesome since the except ImportError is inside a while loop so when __import__ is a python function and it raises ImportError, _resolveDottedName ends up not continuing with the while loop as it should. It seems like the root of the problem is that Python doesn't provide a way to distinguish between an error and a deeper error of the same type. This hack is trying to make that distinction but it interferes with places that Python specifically allows application specific implementations written in Python. Does that mean that code using this hack is broken? Also, zope.dottedname.resolve.resolve, zope.app.introspector.resolve, zope.app.component.site.resolve, zope.app.module.resolve, zope.configuration.name.resolve, zope.configuration.config.ConfigurationContext.resolve, Products.GenericSetup.utils._resolveDottedName. How many versions of this wheel do we need? :) Thoughts? Corrections? Suggested solutions. Ross
