Regarding your comments: > Is there any reason it doesn't inherit io.BufferedIOBase? No, there isn't; I'll fix that in my revised patch. > Since this is a new start, perhaps we should add > #define PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN > before including "Python.h"? Sounds like a good idea. > Just a nit, but I'm not sure there's any point in renaming "the bz2 library" > to "libbzip2"? > (also, under Windows I'm not sure the library naming convention is the same > as under Unix) Well, the official name for the library is "libbzip2" <bzip.org>. I thought that the "lib" prefix would make it clearer that the error is referring to the that library and not _bz2module.c. But if you think it would be better not to make this change, I'll leave it out. >> Modules/_bz2module.c:78: "Unrecognized error from libbzip2: %d", bzerror); > Out of curiousity, did you encounter this condition? No, I was just programming defensively (in case the underlying library adds more error codes in future). Unlikely, but I would think it's better than taking the risk of silently ignoring an error. > Do note that avail_in and avail_out are 32-bit ints, and therefore this is > not 64-bit clean.

This would only be a problem for avail_in, though. The output buffer never grows by more than BIGCHUNK (512KiB) at a time (see grow_buffer()) so there is no risk of overflowing in avail_out. > The Windows build files probably need updating as well. Can you do it? > Otherwise I'll have a try. I'll give it a try, and let you know if I can't get it to work. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5863> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
