This fixes the build failure after I updated Ubuntu 24.04 (alpha), which upgraded python 3.11.7 to python 3.12.0, causing the error: libreoffice/pyuno/source/module/pyuno_callable.cxx:249:1: error: missing initializer for member ‘_typeobject::tp_watched’ [-Werror=missing-field-initializers] ... I gleaned this information from a July 2023 commit for https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/23503 tp_watched was added in upstream commit python/cpython@82ccbf6 https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/82ccbf69a842db25d8117f1c41b47aa5b4ed96ab This change first appeared in Python v3.12.0a1 Change-Id: If82ff1eb47d66d2669d90d6e00e0feff3c55b5ca Reviewed-on: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/164775 Tested-by: Jenkins Reviewed-by: Justin Luth <jluth@mail.com> Reviewed-by: Stephan Bergmann <stephan.bergmann@allotropia.de>
Python UNO Bindings
UNO bindings for the Python programming language.
To have much joy debugging Python extensions you need to:
- a) edit
pythonloader.pyin your install settingDEBUG=1at the top - b)
touch pyuno/source/module/pyuno_runtime.cxxandmake debug=trueinpyuno
Then you'll start to see your exceptions on the console instead of them getting lost at the UNO interface.
Python also comes with a gdb script
libpython$(PYTHON_VERSION_MAJOR).$(PYTHON_VERSION_MINOR)m.so.1.0-gdb.py
that is copied to instdir and will be auto-loaded by gdb;
it provides commands like py-bt to get a Python-level backtrace,
and py-print to print Python variables.
Another way to debug Python code is to use pdb: edit some initialization
function to insert import pdb; pdb.set_trace() (somewhere so that it is
executed early), then run soffice from a terminal and a command-line Python
debugger will appear where you can set Python-level breakpoints.
