Eric V. Smith <e...@trueblade.com> added the comment: Despite the fact that as of now (or 6+ years ago!) the only way to trigger the malloc() is via VT_LPSTR, I still think the way the free() call is written is bad. What if another type is added?
If that were fixed, I still think the basic idea of this patch in isolation of the other raised issues is a good idea. If it was converted to a PR, I'd support merging it (although I'd like to hear from the Windows folks). But it is curious that this bug is so old and it hasn't caused more problems. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue1104> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
