Numerical values of signal numbers are standardized. signal.signal(15, handler) is valid. SIGTERM is just a handy name for the constant 15. But SIG_DFL and SIG_IGN are not integers in C (they are special pointers), and it is not declared anywhere that they should be integers in Python. The code that converts them to Python integer is implementation depending (PyLong_FromVoidPtr). Handcrafted SIG_DFL and SIG_IGN are broken by design, because the signal module uses identity comparison for SIG_DFL and SIG_IGN. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue23325> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
