Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com> added the comment: Rather than exposing the function pointers directly to the linker, I'd be happier with a function based API, with the pointer storage then being made static inside ceval.c.
/* Each function returns the old func, or NULL on failure */ _PyEval_GIL_func _PyEval_replace_take_GIL(_PyEval_GIL_func take_gil); _PyEval_GIL_func _PyEval_replace_drop_GIL(_PyEval_GIL_func drop_gil); The redirection code (sans error checking) would then look like: old_take_gil = _PyEval_replace_take_GIL(stm_take_gil); old_drop_gil = _PyEval_replace_drop_GIL(stm_drop_gil); Currently they'd just replace the statics and would never fail, but it provides looser coupling regardless. ---------- nosy: +ncoghlan _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12850> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
