Terry J. Reedy added the comment: I prefer 'rexcode' for the attribute name.
I share Serhiy's reservations. When people write code that depends on CPython implementation details, even though documented as such, the existence of such code becomes a drag on change, especially when details have been stable for awhile. I just saw this used as an argument against one of the proposed bytecode/wordcode changes. "It would break current 3rd party code." It also came up a few years ago with randomizing hashes (and dict iteration order). Jelle, can one access the 'rexcode' via ctypes? Is so, I think an re disassembler with docs would be a good pypi module. Maybe you could also make it work with Barnett's regex module. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26336> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
