New submission from Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de>: There are currently two ways to specify a type doc string in PyType_FromSpec; either through the doc field (which is not actually processed), or through Py_tp_doc (which works correctly).
The original concern for adding doc into the TypeSpec was that the slots may only refer to function pointers; as it turns out, putting character pointers in there works fine as well, so I recommend to drop the doc field in TypeSlot. The patch also fixes some labelling in the xxlimited module. ---------- files: tp_doc.diff keywords: patch messages: 128077 nosy: georg.brandl, loewis priority: release blocker severity: normal status: open title: Redundant doc field in TypeSpec versions: Python 3.2 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file20706/tp_doc.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11135> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
