What is the problem with these changes? Identifiers have different advantages. Errors become more unlikely because objects are only initialized once, near startup. So it put also less pressure on code handling errors :) (it is usually the least tested part of the code) > And definitely adding new public functions to API needs more discussion. You mean for PyRun_InteractiveOneObject()? Oh, it can be made private, but what is the problem of adding yet another PyRun_Interactive*() function? There are already a lot of them :-) I also worked hard to support unencodable filenames: using char*, you cannot support arbitrary Unicode filename on Windows. That's why a added many various functions with "Object" suffix. Some examples: PyWarn_ExplicitObject(), PyParser_ParseStringObject(), PyImport_AddModuleObject(), etc. Some users complained that they were not able to run Python scripts on Windows with unencodable filenames (like russian characters on an english setup). I can try to find the related issues. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19512> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
