2014-03-03py: Factor and improve issubclass.Damien George
2014-03-03Add mp_obj_is_subclass_fast() - intended for fast argument checking.Paul Sokolovsky
I.e. as replacement of MP_OBJ_IS_TYPE(), which takes into account subclassing.
2014-02-15Implement proper exception type hierarchy.Damien George
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.
2014-02-15Change mp_obj_type_t.name from const char * to qstr.Damien George
Ultimately all static strings should be qstr. This entry in the type structure is only used for printing error messages (to tell the type of the bad argument), and printing objects that don't supply a .print method.
2014-02-12Remove mp_obj_new_exception_msg_1_arg and _2_arg.Damien George
2014-02-12Replace global "static" -> "STATIC", to allow "analysis builds". Part 1.Paul Sokolovsky
Some tools do not support local/static symbols (one example is GNU ld map file). Exposing all functions will allow to do detailed size comparisons, etc. Also, added bunch of statics where they were missing, and replaced few identity functions with global mp_identity().
2014-02-08py: Add some qstrs to the global table.Damien George
2014-02-06Add staticmethod and classmethod to builtin namespace.Damien George
2014-02-05py: Fix bug with dual initialisation of RT_UNARY_OP_NOT.Damien George
Fixes Issue #261.
2014-02-05py: Add built-in super.Damien George
2014-02-02py: Add very basic implementation of dir() builtin.Damien George
Only works on modules and class instances.
2014-02-02py: Partially fix native emitter to work with latest runtime.Damien George
Native emitter has been broken since stack order has changed from reverse to standard. This fix gets it partially working.
2014-02-01py: Tidy up BINARY_OPs; negation done by special NOT bytecode.Damien George
IS_NOT and NOT_IN are now compiled to IS + NOT and IN + NOT, with a new special NOT bytecode.
2014-01-30py: Improve __bool__ and __len__ dispatch; add slots for them.Damien George
2014-01-25Remove obsoleted comment.Damien George
2014-01-25py: Implement iterator support for object that has __getitem__.Damien George
Addresses Issue #203.
2014-01-22Second stage of qstr revamp: uPy str object can be qstr or not.Damien George
2014-01-21Revamp qstrs: they now include length and hash.Damien George
Can now have null bytes in strings. Can define ROM qstrs per port using qstrdefsport.h
2014-01-18Improve method lookup in mp_obj_class_lookup.Damien George
Now searches both locals_dict and methods. Partly addresses Issue #145.
2014-01-18Implement framework for class-defined built-in operators.Damien George
Now working for class-defined methods: __getitem__, __setitem__, __add__, __sub__. Easy to add others.
2014-01-18Make VM stack grow upwards, and so no reversed args arrays.Damien George
Change state layout in VM so the stack starts at state[0] and grows upwards. Locals are at the top end of the state and number downwards. This cleans up a lot of the interface connecting the VM to C: now all functions that take an array of Micro Python objects are in order (ie no longer in reverse). Also clean up C API with keyword arguments (call_n and call_n_kw replaced with single call method that takes keyword arguments). And now make_new takes keyword arguments. emitnative.c has not yet been changed to comply with the new order of stack layout.
2014-01-15type->print(): Distinguish str() and repr() variety by passing extra param.Paul Sokolovsky
2014-01-11py: Implement staticmethod and classmethod (internally).Damien George
Still need to make built-ins by these names, and write tests.
2014-01-09py: Implement base class lookup, issubclass, isinstance.Damien George
2014-01-09Improved type/class/instance code; mp_obj_type_t now has load_attr, store_attr.Damien George
Creating of classes (types) and instances is much more like CPython now. You can use "type('name', (), {...})" to create classes.
2014-01-08py: Proper framework for built-in 'type'.Damien George
2014-01-07Merge branch 'cplusplus' of https://github.com/ian-v/micropython into ↵Damien George
ian-v-cplusplus Conflicts: py/objcomplex.c
2014-01-06Co-exist with C++ (issue #85)ian-v
2014-01-05Convert many object types structs to use C99 tagged initializer syntax.Paul Sokolovsky
2014-01-04Convert Python types to proper Python type hierarchy.Damien George
Now much more inline with how CPython does types.
2014-01-02py: Add framework for built-in "type()" function.Damien George
2013-12-21Change object representation from 1 big union to individual structs.Damien
A big change. Micro Python objects are allocated as individual structs with the first element being a pointer to the type information (which is itself an object). This scheme follows CPython. Much more flexible, not necessarily slower, uses same heap memory, and can allocate objects statically. Also change name prefix, from py_ to mp_ (mp for Micro Python).
