I am not sure that raising an error is the best option. We can just convert an integer subclass to an exact int using _PyLong_Copy(). I am not sure that converting to an exact int in low-level C API functions is the best option. In many cases we use only the content of the resulting object ignoring its type (when convert it to the C integer or float, to bytes array, to new instance of int subclass). Creating a new exact int is a waste of time. This is why I withdrawn my patches and this issue is still open. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue17576> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
