New submission from Cournapeau David <da...@ar.media.kyoto-u.ac.jp>:
I had some problems with python and universal builds related to the WORDS_BIGENDIAN macro. Because universal builds are built in one pass (one configure), the AC_C_ENDIAN cannot be used reliably. Example: int main() { #ifdef WORDS_BIGENDIAN printf("Big endian macro defined\n"); #else printf("No big endian macro defined\n"); #endif return 0; } If I build this against python 2.5, it prints no big endian macro (I have an intel CPU), as expected. But with python 2.6.0 (official binary from python.org), I get Big endian macro defined. ---------- messages: 78224 nosy: cdavid severity: normal status: open title: Endianness and universal builds problems _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4728> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
