True enough. Btw, PyType_FromSpec accepts Py_tp_doc (char *), Py_tp_base (PyTypeObject *), etc ... so to be strictly standard compliant, a union would be necessary. PyType_GetName() sounds great. One "proper" workaround at the moment is PyObject_GetAttrString(Py_TYPE(x), "__name__") and then process the result. This is somewhat "heavy" and strips the module name. "Py_tp_name" provides a convenient, exception safe, and backward compatible way to access tp_name. What I actually do right now is to access the (opaque) PyTypeObject::tp_name by pointer offset. This certain defies the purpose of stable ABI! ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42035> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
