New submission from Serhiy Storchaka: Proposed patch makes the empty tuple be allocated in static memory rather than dynamic memory, expose a reference to it as _PyTuple_Empty, and makes PyTuple_New(0) never raising exceptions. This allows to simplify the code. No longer need to call PyTuple_New(0), check it's result for errors, and clean up it after the use, you just can use a borrowed reference _PyTuple_Empty.
_PyTuple_Empty is for CPython internal use only. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 292274 nosy: haypo, serhiy.storchaka priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: Add _PyTuple_Empty and make PyTuple_New(0) never failing type: enhancement versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30162> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
