But this is an absolute requirement, a guarantee that we provide forever, and the whole point of this patch. Py_hash_t *will* be a signed version of size_t, just as Py_ssize_t. Not by chance, but by careful, inherent design. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9778> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
