STINNER Victor added the comment: I don't understand why do we have specialized functions to compare strings. Can't we reuse PyUnicode_Compare(a, b) or PyUnicode_RichCompare( a, b, Py_EQ)? Is unicode_eq() used to inline the code?
By the way, unicode_compare_eq() (subfunction of these functions) and unicode_eq() have a different implementation. unicode_eq() checks the first byte before calling memcmp(). We should only have one implementation, the fastest if possible :-) See also issue #16286. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16321> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
