New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com>:
Currently None is used instead of an empty directory for the attrib field in the C implementation of Element in ElementTree. It is a pure optimization: an empty dict takes a memory and its creation has a cost. The proposed PR makes NULL be using instead of None. This simplifies the code. ---------- components: Extension Modules messages: 363133 nosy: eli.bendersky, scoder, serhiy.storchaka priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Use NULL instead of None for empty attrib in C implementation of Element versions: Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39822> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
