From: R David Murray Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2012 02:36:07 +0000 (-0400) Subject: #12537: in mailbox avoid depending on knowledge of email package internals X-Git-Tag: v3.3.0a3~281 X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b019ee752a6be0bcd4f640f09bce0c5f5215e880;p=python #12537: in mailbox avoid depending on knowledge of email package internals Previously mailbox was copying a list of attributes from one message object to another in order to "copy the message data". This means that any time new attributes were added to email.message.Message, mailbox broke. Now instead it copies all attributes from the source object to the target object, skipping any mailbox-object-specific attributes to produce the same clean initial state it was previously getting by copying only the "known" attributes. David Lam assisted in the development of this patch. --- diff --git a/Lib/mailbox.py b/Lib/mailbox.py index 325b9c9ac0..7a29555e4a 100644 --- a/Lib/mailbox.py +++ b/Lib/mailbox.py @@ -1462,9 +1462,10 @@ class Message(email.message.Message): def _become_message(self, message): """Assume the non-format-specific state of message.""" - for name in ('_headers', '_unixfrom', '_payload', '_charset', - 'preamble', 'epilogue', 'defects', '_default_type'): - self.__dict__[name] = message.__dict__[name] + type_specific = getattr(message, '_type_specific_attributes', []) + for name in message.__dict__: + if name not in type_specific: + self.__dict__[name] = message.__dict__[name] def _explain_to(self, message): """Copy format-specific state to message insofar as possible.""" @@ -1477,6 +1478,8 @@ class Message(email.message.Message): class MaildirMessage(Message): """Message with Maildir-specific properties.""" + _type_specific_attributes = ['_subdir', '_info', '_date'] + def __init__(self, message=None): """Initialize a MaildirMessage instance.""" self._subdir = 'new' @@ -1584,6 +1587,8 @@ class MaildirMessage(Message): class _mboxMMDFMessage(Message): """Message with mbox- or MMDF-specific properties.""" + _type_specific_attributes = ['_from'] + def __init__(self, message=None): """Initialize an mboxMMDFMessage instance.""" self.set_from('MAILER-DAEMON', True) @@ -1699,6 +1704,8 @@ class mboxMessage(_mboxMMDFMessage): class MHMessage(Message): """Message with MH-specific properties.""" + _type_specific_attributes = ['_sequences'] + def __init__(self, message=None): """Initialize an MHMessage instance.""" self._sequences = [] @@ -1769,6 +1776,8 @@ class MHMessage(Message): class BabylMessage(Message): """Message with Babyl-specific properties.""" + _type_specific_attributes = ['_labels', '_visible'] + def __init__(self, message=None): """Initialize an BabylMessage instance.""" self._labels = [] diff --git a/Lib/test/test_mailbox.py b/Lib/test/test_mailbox.py index 95f8e0d2a2..0fe4bd9dd0 100644 --- a/Lib/test/test_mailbox.py +++ b/Lib/test/test_mailbox.py @@ -1330,6 +1330,14 @@ class TestMessage(TestBase, unittest.TestCase): # Initialize with invalid argument self.assertRaises(TypeError, lambda: self._factory(object())) + def test_all_eMM_attribues_exist(self): + # Issue 12537 + eMM = email.message_from_string(_sample_message) + msg = self._factory(_sample_message) + for attr in eMM.__dict__: + self.assertTrue(attr in msg.__dict__, + '{} attribute does not exist'.format(attr)) + def test_become_message(self): # Take on the state of another message eMM = email.message_from_string(_sample_message) @@ -1596,6 +1604,21 @@ class TestMessageConversion(TestBase, unittest.TestCase): for class_ in self.all_mailbox_types: self.assertRaises(TypeError, lambda: class_(False)) + def test_type_specific_attributes_removed_on_conversion(self): + reference = {class_: class_(_sample_message).__dict__ + for class_ in self.all_mailbox_types} + for class1 in self.all_mailbox_types: + for class2 in self.all_mailbox_types: + if class1 is class2: + continue + source = class1(_sample_message) + target = class2(source) + type_specific = [a for a in reference[class1] + if a not in reference[class2]] + for attr in type_specific: + self.assertNotIn(attr, target.__dict__, + "while converting {} to {}".format(class1, class2)) + def test_maildir_to_maildir(self): # Convert MaildirMessage to MaildirMessage msg_maildir = mailbox.MaildirMessage(_sample_message) diff --git a/Misc/NEWS b/Misc/NEWS index 6256e02575..4c3758d915 100644 --- a/Misc/NEWS +++ b/Misc/NEWS @@ -19,6 +19,9 @@ Core and Builtins Library ------- +- Issue #12537: The mailbox module no longer depends on knowledge of internal + implementation details of the email package Message object. + - Issue #7978: socketserver now restarts the select() call when EINTR is returned.
