As I guess your goal is to get rid of all the "if (size < 0) size = -size" in object.c and friends, I should point out that longobject.c has set out an example that might have been followed by C extension writers. Maybe it is too late to say now that ob_size cannot be negative any more :-( Armin _______________________________________________ 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
