I'm trying to write an extension for python 2.4, and I can't seem to get PyArg_ParseTuple to work with a dict. I've tried all sorts of things, but the most simple thing that fails is:
[...] if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "O", &file)) { return NULL; } [...] If I call the function from python with an int, or a string, etc it works fine. If I pass in a dict I get: SystemError: new style getargs format but argument is not a tuple even though a call to: PyObject_TypeCheck(args, &PyTuple_Type) tells me that args is a tuple. PyObject_Print(args, stdout, NULL) even produces: ({'foo': 1},) Can anyone give me a minimal example of a C function that takes a dict and parses it out with PyArg_ParseTuple? -Seth -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
