With these fixes, `transports`/`asyncsync` correctly propagate and document their raises information - generally, most transport functions (send etc) raise `TransportError` and `CancelledError` - `closeWait` is special in that it generally doesn't fail.
This PR introduces the syntax `Future[void].Raises([types])` to create the `InternalRaisesFuture` type with the correct encoding for the types - this allows it to be used in user code while retaining the possibility to change the internal representation down the line.
* introduce raising constraints on stream callbacks - these constraints now give a warning when called with a callback that can raise exceptions (raising callbacks would crash
* fix fail and its tests, which wasn't always given a good generic match
* work around nim bugs related to macro expansion of generic types
* make sure transports raise only `TransportError`-derived exceptions (and `CancelledError`)
* Add callTick and stream cancellation tests.
* Fix stepsAsync() test.
* Cancellation changes.
* Update and add more cancellation tests.
* Fix Posix shutdown call to handle ENOTCONN error.
* With new changes to to cancellation its now possible.
* Refactor testsoon.nim to not produce artifacts after tests are finished.
* Debugging MacOS issue.
* Adjust flaky test times.
* Fix issue.
* Add test for issue #334 which was also addressed in this PR.
Avoid `break` in problematic test.
* Add noCancelWait() call which prohibits cancellation.
Fix closeWait() calls to use noCancelWait() predicate.
Adding sleep to flaky MacOS test.
* Remove all debugging echoes.
* Fix cancelAndWait() which now could perform multiple attempts to cancel target Future (mustCancel behavior).
* Fix issues revealed by switch to different cancelAndWait().
* Address review comments.
* Fix testutils compilation warning.
* Rename callTick() to internalCallTick().
* Add some documentation comments.
* Disable flaky ratelimit test.
* Rename noCancelWait() to noCancel().
Address review comments.
This PR moves all compile-time configuration to a single module,
simplifying documentation and access to these features.
Upcomfing features may be enabled either individually, or through a new
`chronosPreviewV4` catch-all designed to allow code to be prepared for
increased strictness in future chronos releases.
`-d:chronosDebug` may be used to enable the existing debugging helpers
together.
Add IndexError crash test for Linux/MacOS.
Add Sentinel version of fix.
Add GetQueuedCompletionStatusEx() support for Windows, which allows to capture more then one event in single `poll()` call.
* exception tracking
This PR adds minimal exception tracking to chronos, moving the goalpost
one step further.
In particular, it becomes invalid to raise exceptions from `callSoon`
callbacks: this is critical for writing correct error handling because
there's no reasonable way that a user of chronos can possibly _reason_
about exceptions coming out of there: the event loop will be in an
indeterminite state when the loop is executing an _random_ callback.
As expected, there are several issues in the error handling of chronos:
in particular, it will end up in an inconsistent internal state whenever
the selector loop operations fail, because the internal state update
functions are not written in an exception-safe way. This PR turns this
into a Defect, which probably is not the optimal way of handling things
- expect more work to be done here.
Some API have no way of reporting back errors to callers - for example,
when something fails in the accept loop, there's not much it can do, and
no way to report it back to the user of the API - this has been fixed
with the new accept flow - the old one should be deprecated.
Finally, there is information loss in the API: in composite operations
like `poll` and `waitFor` there's no way to differentiate internal
errors from user-level errors originating from callbacks.
* store `CatchableError` in future
* annotate proc's with correct raises information
* `selectors2` to avoid non-CatchableError IOSelectorsException
* `$` should never raise
* remove unnecessary gcsafe annotations
* fix exceptions leaking out of timer waits
* fix some imports
* functions must signal raising the union of all exceptions across all
platforms to enable cross-platform code
* switch to unittest2
* add `selectors2` which supercedes the std library version and fixes
several exception handling issues in there
* fixes
* docs, platform-independent eh specifiers for some functions
* add feature flag for strict exception mode
also bump version to 3.0.0 - _most_ existing code should be compatible
with this version of exception handling but some things might need
fixing - callbacks, existing raises specifications etc.
* fix AsyncCheck for non-void T
