Possibly related to http://bugs.python.org/issue29327 - yields the same error message:
Objects/tupleobject.c:81: bad argument to internal function
I have a large SWIG project which was previously working well in Python 3.5. After migrating to Python 3.6.0, I find I can still create any wrapped object from Python via its constructor(s), but any internal function that returns certain objects fails with the above message. I have so far been unable to find any distinction between classes that do and don't return successfully. Take the below (and attached) headers, for example. Functions that return Spacegroup objects work, as do those that return Metric_tensor objects from the attached cell.h. On the other hand, functions returning Cell or Cell_descr objects fail with the above message. Yet in all cases I can successfully call the objects' constructors. Not ashamed to say I'm a bit lost here.

Which function raises this exception? Add the traceback place. It may be a bug in your code.
OK, a further clue. First, a little more detail on how my project is arranged (to re-iterate, this works without complaint in Python 3.5):
Rather than use my SWIG output directly, I've created a further wrapper layer in Python to add functions/syntactic sugar that would be difficult to achieve in SWIG, add a bit of extra documentation, and bury some classes that may be occasionally useful but don't really need to be in the primary API. The SWIG output Python library I name clipper_core, and I use the following class decorators for classes in the front-end API to reduce the amount of code (Python and SWIG) needed:
def mappedclass(old_cls):
'''
Ensures that objects returned from functions in the clipper_core
library are instantiated in Python as the derived class with the
extra functionality.
'''
def decorator(cls):
def __newnew__(thiscls, *args, **kwargs):
if thiscls == old_cls:
return object.__new__(cls)
return object.__new__(thiscls)
old_cls.__new__ = __newnew__
return cls
return decorator
def getters_to_properties(*funcs):
'''
Class decorator. Add the names of any getter functions with void
arguments (e.g. Coord_grid.u()) to convert them to properties. If
you want the property name to be different from the function name,
add the desired name and the function name as a tuple
(e.g. ('uvw', '_get_uvw'))
'''
def property_factory(func):
def getter(self):
return getattr(super(self.__class__, self), func)()
prop = property(getter)
return prop
def decorator(cls):
for func in funcs:
if type(func) == tuple:
setattr(cls, func[0], property_factory(func[1]))
else:
setattr(cls, func, property_factory(func))
return cls
return decorator
def format_to_string(cls):
'''
Class decorator to redirect the Clipper format() function to __str__,
to provide pretty printing of the object.
'''
def format(self):
return super(self.__class__,self).format()
def __str__(self):
return self.format
setattr(cls, 'format', property(format))
setattr(cls, '__str__', __str__)
return cls
Experimenting this morning with the following two classes:
@format_to_string
@mappedclass(clipper_core.Cell_descr)
class Cell_descr(clipper_core.Cell_descr):
def __init__(self, abc, angles):
'''
__init__(self, abc, angles) -> Cell_descr
Args:
abc ([float*3]): cell dimensions in Angstroms
angles ([float*3]): alpha, beta and gamma angles in degrees
'''
clipper_core.Cell_descr.__init__(self, *abc, *angles)
@format_to_string
@getters_to_properties('cell_descr', 'matrix_frac', 'matrix_orth',
'metric_real', 'metric_reci', 'volume')
@mappedclass(clipper_core.Cell)
class Cell(clipper_core.Cell):
'''
Define a crystallographic unit cell using the lengths of the three
sides a, b, c (in Angstroms) and the three angles alpha, beta, gamma
(in degrees).
'''
def __init__(self, abc, angles):
'''
__init__(self, abc, angles) -> Cell
Args:
abc ([float*3]): cell dimensions in Angstroms
angles ([float*3]): alpha, beta and gamma angles in degrees
'''
cell_descr = Cell_descr(abc, angles)
#cell_descr = clipper_core.Cell_descr(*abc, *angles)
clipper_core.Cell.__init__(self, cell_descr)
def __eq__(self, other):
return self.equals(other)
Then: import clipper cell = clipper.cell([100,100,100],[90,90,90]) cell.cell_descr
SystemError Traceback (most recent call last)

... but if I comment out the derived Cell_descr class and switch to the alternate celldescr constructor in Cell.\_init__(), then it works as expected. I have tried commenting out the other class decorators, with no effect - so it would seem it's what's happening in the @mappedclass decorator that is causing my troubles.
OK, this seems to narrow down the problem. The following was legal in Python 3.5.1, but in 3.5.3 and 3.6.1rc1 returns:
'TypeError: must be type, not classobj'
class Foo_Base:
pass
class Bar_Base:
def get_foo(self):
f = Foo_Base()
return f
class Foo(Foo_Base):
pass
class Bar(Bar_Base):
def get_foo2(self):
return super(Bar, self).get_foo()
bar = Bar()
b = bar.get_foo2()
Is this a deliberate and permanent change? If so, it looks like I have a lot of work on my hands.
Nope - belay that. Checking through the SWIG-generated Python code, all the classes correctly inherit from object, which negates that issue.
The code in msg289314 doesn't emit any warning. I tested 3.5, 3.6 and master development branches and system Python 3.5.2.
"Nope - belay that. Checking through the SWIG-generated Python code, all the classes correctly inherit from object, which negates that issue."
I don't understand your comment, on Python 3, any class inherit from object be default. There is no more old and new classes.
haypo@selma$ cat y.py class A: pass class B(object): pass
print(A.__bases__)
print(B.__bases__)
haypo@selma$ python3 y.py (\<class 'object'>,) (\<class 'object'>,)
Sorry - ignore that. Brain-fart at the end of a (very) long day.
Since it sounds like everything on the Python side is fine I'm closing this.
I don't agree that it should be closed yet. I still have the issue that an approach that was perfectly legal in Python 3.5 now no longer works in Python 3.6, and I don't know why. The description in msg289281 stands, and is a real problem. Nothing has changed in my code - I compile against Python 3.5 and it works, against 3.6 it doesn't.
I've cross-posted the following to the SWIG bug tracker. Hopefully someone can find an answer, because I'm getting nowhere.
If I have two classes Foo and Bar (where Bar has a function get_foo() that returns a Foo object) defined in the SWIG-generated library foobar, and wrap them as follows:
def mappedclass(old_cls):
'''
Ensures that objects returned from functions in the clipper_core
library are instantiated in Python as the derived class with the
extra functionality.
'''
def decorator(cls):
def __newnew__(thiscls, *args, **kwargs):
if thiscls == old_cls:
return object.__new__(cls)
return object.__new__(thiscls)
old_cls.__new__ = __newnew__
return cls
return decorator
@mappedclass(foobar.Foo)
class Foo(foobar.Foo):
pass
@mappedclass(foobar.Bar)
class Bar(foobar.Bar):
def get_foo(self):
return super(Bar, self).get_foo()
then in Python 3.5:
f = Foo()
b = Bar()
b.get_foo()
all work. In Python 3.6:
f = Foo()
b = Bar()
... both work, but
b.get_foo()
yields the error as per my OP. Real-world examples:

Please keep this issue closed until you hear back from the SWIG team. Just because your code worked under Python 3.5 doesn't mean SWIG didn't accidentally emit something that breaks under Python 3.6 because we started being more stringent about something. Basically unless we have C code (and not SWIG or C++ code) to reproduce this then we have to go on the assumption it's a problem on SWIG's side.
Note: these values reflect the state of the issue at the time it was migrated and might not reflect the current state.
