Python extension objects that support __dict__ must inherit from gdbpy_dict_wrapper, a wrapper class that stores the PyObject corresponding to the __dict__ attribute. Because this dictionary is not managed directly by Python, each extension objects must provide appropriate accessors so that attributes stored in __dict__ are looked up correctly. Currently, management of this dictionary is not centralized, and each Python extension object implements its own logic to create, access, and destroy it. A previous patch centralized the creation logic; this patch focuses on centralizing the access to the dictionary. It introduces two new macros: - gdbpy_dict_wrapper_cfg_dict_getter, which defines a getter for __dict__. - gdbpy_dict_wrapper_getsetattro, which sets tp_getattro and tp_setattro in PyTypeObject to gdb_py_generic_getattro and gdb_py_generic_setattro, respectively. These helpers already centralizes attribute access for Python extension objects having a __dict__. Note: this macro will eventually be removed once Python extension types are migrated to heap-allocated types. Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>

/* A wrapper class for Python extension objects that have a __dict__ attribute.

|
Any Python C object extension needing __dict__ should inherit from this
|
|
class. Given that the C extension object must also be convertible to
|
|
PyObject, this wrapper class publicly inherits from PyObject as well.
|
|
|
|
Access to the dict requires a custom getter defined via PyGetSetDef.
|
|
gdb_PyGetSetDef my_object_getset[] =
|
|
{
|
|
gdbpy_dict_wrapper_cfg_dict_getter ("object"),
|
|
...
|
|
{ nullptr }
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
It is also important to note that __dict__ is used during the attribute
|
|
look-up. Since this dictionary is not managed by Python and is not exposed
|
|
via tp_dictoffset, custom attribute getter (tp_getattro) and setter
|
|
(tp_setattro) are required to correctly redirect attribute access to the
|
|
dictionary:
|
|
- gdb_py_generic_getattro (), assigned to tp_getattro for static types,
|
|
or Py_tp_getattro for heap-allocated types.
|
|
- gdb_py_generic_setattro (), assigned to tp_setattro for static types,
|
|
or Py_tp_setattro for heap-allocated types. */
