Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: call() just converts all args to Tcl list. Is Argument Clinic supports *args and **kwargs? I'm not sure there is a benefit with using Argument Clinic here.
splitlist() and split() first call PyArg_ParseTuple with one argument, check the input, and then may call PyArg_ParseTuple with other argument. They need large refactoring to use Argument Clinic. getint(), getdouble(), getboolean() first manually unpack arguments tuple, and then may call PyArg_ParseTuple. Same as above. setvar()/globalsetvar(), getvar()/globalgetvar(), unsetvar()/globalunsetvar() shares common code parametrized by flags. I think this is resolvable. But worse, they can delegates their execution to other thread and should save all arguments in events queue. And this looks absolutely unsuitable for Argument Clinic. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20168> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
