STINNER Victor added the comment: Serhiy Storchaka: "The patch adds too much code, but there is very little need of new feature (...)"
I wrote my first patch in 2013, but I still fail to find a very good example where intmax_t would be an obvious choice. So I have to agree and I will now close the issue. If you still want to get a builtin support for intmax_t in CPython, please come with a strong rationale for justify adding "so much code" ;-) I now close the issue and reject my PR. ---------- resolution: -> rejected stage: patch review -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17870> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
