New patch version 5 without the "format_converter".
Serhiy Storchaka: I said not about the converter that converts format to bytes
(it is needed only in Struct.__init__),
For me, it makes sense to check format type earlier than Struct.__init__(), but
since you like the current code, I'm also ok to leave this part of the code
unchanged :-)
Serhiy: but about the converter that converts format to the Struct object. It
is used in all module-level functions.
Sorry, but I dislike this change. Even if multiple functions do the same, for
me creating a Struct object is not something part of the argument parsing. I
prefer to keep the following 3 lines in each C function *body* to ease
debugging:
PyObject *s_object = cache_struct(format);
if (s_object == NULL)
return NULL;
IMHO my struct_fastcall-5.patch is already big enough. I prefer incremental
changes.
I have no strong opinion on cache_struct(), just a matter of taste :-) And
others may like your change!
Feel free to write your own patch on top of mine, once mine is merged ;-)
