Martin v. Löwis added the comment: I don't think they are actually the *same* issue.
For the limitations wrt. code objects (maximum size of byte code, maximum number of local variables, maximum number of parameters, etc.), I recommend the following thorough procedure: 1. document in a single text file all the limitations 2. check for each one whether an int is sufficient to represent them at runtime. 3. if yes: leave all structure definitions as-is. Local variables might be changed to size_t where this simplifies the code. Otherwise, Py_SAFE_DOWNCAST should be used where the actual value ought to be valid already. Runtime errors where a value may come from the outside that might be out of range. 4. if not: widen the structures to Py_ssize_t. ---------- nosy: +loewis _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18295> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
