[issue6255] PyInt_FromSize_t is undocumented.
New submission from Naoki INADA songofaca...@gmail.com: PyInt_FromSize_t() is not in Python/C API document. People seeing document may be not able to find how to make int from unsigned long. -- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation messages: 89208 nosy: georg.brandl, naoki severity: normal status: open title: PyInt_FromSize_t is undocumented. versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6255 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue6255] PyInt_FromSize_t is undocumented.
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: It seems to me that PyInt_FromSize_t() wouldn't be the right way to create a Python int from a C unsigned long anyway, since there's no guarantee that C's unsigned long and size_t have the same precision. (I'm not disputing that PyInt_FromSize_t should be documented, by the way.) Maybe a PyInt_FromUnsignedLong method would be useful? It would be trivial to implement. -- nosy: +marketdickinson ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6255 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue6255] PyInt_FromSize_t is undocumented.
Naoki INADA songofaca...@gmail.com added the comment: You're right. PyInt_FromSize_t() isn't safe for unsigned long. Maybe a PyInt_FromUnsignedLong method would be useful? It would be trivial to implement. I hope that all of py3k's PyInt_From** are in Python 2.x. It makes maintaining extension module for both of Py2.x and Py3k a bit easier. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6255 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
