Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: CPython is written on C and provides C API.
Even if change the signature of one function, this will not help much, because a lot of other functions require "char *" instead of "const char *". There is small disadvantage of changing the signature in a bugfix release. This will lead to incompatibility of your extension with older bugfix releases. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26476> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
