New submission from Sébastien Celles <s.cel...@gmail.com>: Hello,
I'm looking for a way to get (using Python) the maximum and minimum values of C types integers (ie uint8, int8, uint16, int16, uint32, int32, uint64, int64...) from Python. I asked this question on StackOverflow and get a nice answer https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52475749/maximum-and-minimum-value-of-c-types-integers-from-python but I wonder if this kind of feature couldn't be add directly in `ctypes.c_` as property. Maybe we could have the following properties: - `issigned` - `max` - `min` Moreover being able to convert a number into a C type integer raising exception when input data is out of range could also be considered Maybe using code like https://pastebin.com/cvm95m1x (instead of silently overflow) Kind regards ---------- messages: 326467 nosy: scls priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Maximum and minimum value of C types integers from Python _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34810> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
