I'm wondering, what was the original motivation to reuse temporaries?
It goes back to Pyrex, where I didn't really give it much thought -- it just seemed like the tidiest thing to do. Once you have the logic to release temp references as soon as it's safe to do so, it's not much harder to return the variable to a pool as well.
Do we ever have C++ stack-allocated object temporaries?
Theoretically, yes -- temporaries aren't necessarily object references, they can be of any type (or they can in Pyrex, at least). -- Greg _______________________________________________ cython-devel mailing list cython-devel@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cython-devel
