Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Core (C code) Group: Python 3000 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Pete Shinners (shredwheat) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: methods for bytes Initial Comment: This adds the methods for bytes objects as listed in PEP 358. It includes tests for the newly added methods. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Neal Norwitz (nnorwitz) Date: 2007-02-26 21:35 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=33168 Originator: NO Thanks for the patch. I'd like to try to focus on reviewing only new code. How much of this code was copied straight from string, how much was modified and how much was new? There are a bunch of formatting changes. Could you revert those portions and add them to a separate patch (the file can be attached here if you want). Since you are adding a Fini method, I wonder if you ought to add a corresponding Init method. This would init nullbytes and save a comparison on each instantiation of a bytes object. _adjust_indices() looks generic, does this code exist elsewhere/can it be reused? All the methods that take a single argument should use METH_O (e.g., bytes_extend). Shouldn't value in bytes_remove(), bytes_insert(), and possibly elsewhere be limited to 0..255? If the value is > 255, it will traverse the entire bytes, then raise an exception rather than fail early. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1669633&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
