Because SRE_MAXREPEAT is generated (as all sre_constants.h) from sre_constants.py (note changes at the end of sre_constants.py). I agree, that SRE_MAXREPEAT is imposed by the C code limitation and it will be better to defined it in C. But we can't just import C's define into Python. This requires more code. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13169> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
