Hi,
I found a cool way to trigger a SystemError: exec CodeType(0,0,0, 0,"",(),(),()," ","",0,"")
XXX lineno: 0, opcode: 0
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/", line 0, in
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/", line 0, in
SystemError: unknown opcode
The documentation says:
You should report this to the author or maintainer of your Python
interpreter. Be sure to report the version of the Python interpreter
(sys.version; it is also printed at the start of an interactive Python
session), the exact error message (the exception's associated value) and
if possible the source of the program that triggered the error.
Although it probably shouldn't be taken literally in this case...
....or should it :-)?
Hmm, and this actually *hangs*: exec CodeType(0,0,0, 0,"",(),(),()," ","",2**31-1,"")
XXX lineno: 2147483647, opcode: 0
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/", line 2147483647, in
....
But I guess this is a case of "so don't do it" :-)?
yours,
Gerrit.

I once experimented, briefly, with doing "genetic programming" (evolving
programs to solve problems) using Python bytecode. In effect, this meant
that random sequences of bytes were being executed as though they were
valid compiled Python programs.
The interpreter crashed rapidly and frequently. I quickly concluded
that the interpreter is designed to be safe in executing bytecode that
is generated by a proper Python compiler, and that the compiler did not
generate random bytecodes most of the time.
Had to abandon that idea, though in principle it's still very cool.

How about marshal.loads(' 0') ? exec CodeType(0,0,0, 0,"",(),(),()," ","",0,"")

[snippety] But I guess this is a case of "so don't do it" :-)?
Definitely. It's easy enought to crash the interpreter this way
(think LOAD_CONST 30000, for just one easy way).
