PYTHONHASHSEED has to be a string anyhow, so why not just get rid of PYTHONHASHRANDOMIZATION? Use PYTHONHASHSEED=random to use randomization. Other values that cannot be turned into an integer will be (currently) undefined. (You may want to raise a fatal error, on the assumption that errors should not pass silently.) A missing PYTHONHASHSEED then has the pleasant interpretation of defaulting to "0" for backwards compatibility. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13703> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
