Given that this is all about establishing some common ground between implementations I would propose not using a CPython specific term here such as PyStructSequence :) The Python docs seem to use structseq for sys.float_info. > compiler (required): > verbose name of the compiler, for example "GCC 4.3.3", "Java > HotSpot(TM) Client VM (Apple Inc.)", "Mono JIT compiler version 2.0.1" What's the value of this attribute? The main reason I ask is there's no way that I know of to determine the JIT being used in .NET. We could of course fill in some dummy value here for IronPython but I'm also not sure why anyone would use this. Otherwise it looks good to me. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
