New submission from Sandro Tosi: Hello, this has been reported at http://mail.python.org/pipermail/docs/2012-July/009223.html but since I have no experience to judge if it's correct or not, i'll just report it:
>>> I've recenty started to try using C code in python using the wonderful python API, although i have to say the learning curve was non neglectable :P I've spotted what I believe to be a small mistake in the documentation from this page: http://docs.python.org/release/3.2/extending/extending.html In paragraph 1.8 (http://docs.python.org/release/3.2/extending/extending.html#keyword-parameters-for-extension-functions), the code example given contains an error, which is actually obsolete code from python 2.7: void initkeywdarg(void) { /* Create the module and add the functions */ Py_InitModule("keywdarg", keywdarg_methods); } This doesn't work in Python3.2. It's supposed to be static struct PyModuleDef keywdargmodule = { PyModuleDef_HEAD_INIT, "keywdarg", /* name of module */ keywdarg_doc, /* module documentation, may be NULL */ -1, /* size of per-interpreter state of the module, or -1 if the module keeps state in global variables. */ keywdarg_methods }; PyMODINIT_FUNC PyInit_keywdarg(void) { return PyModule_Create(&keywdargmodule); } As explained above (and confirmed by experience). <<< ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 168223 nosy: docs@python, sandro.tosi priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: "Extending Python with C" page needs update for 3.x versions: Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15656> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
