Given that extensions call these APIs, I find it highly risky to disable these checks in any version of the Python runtime and am -1 on such a change. Using assert() in C is a pretty bad alternative, since this crashes the whole process. It should really only be used where no other means of error handling are possible. Python's exception mechanism is a much better way to signal and handle such errors at the application level. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Experts (#1, Jun 26 2019) >>> Python Projects, Coaching and Consulting ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> Python Database Interfaces ... http://products.egenix.com/ >>> Plone/Zope Database Interfaces ... http://zope.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: We implement business ideas - efficiently in both time and costs ::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
