Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Table: I believe the format is that the second column describes Pyhton objects that can be marshalled into xml for the rpc. Sometimes a note is added about the 'return' type, which I presume is the Python object unmarshalled from xml. From this standpoint, ":class:`int` in range from -2147483648 to 2147483647." is correct, as well as clearer than the replacement.
I presume 'tags' are in the xml. "Tag' is meaningless for the returned Python objects. To me "Values get the ``<int>`` tag." is more grammatical and at least as clear. --- +The module now supports unmarshalling additional data types used by +Apache XML-RPC implementation for numerics and ``None``. The following is clearer to me, although I am puzzled as the table entry for 'nil' in unchanged. +The module now supports unmarshalling ``None`` and additional data +types used by Apache XML-RPC implementation for numerics. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26885> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
