Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org> added the comment:
But at least if it's available as a slot then a module is *able* to use it with limited ABI going backwards. A new function doesn't allow that. And yeah, it means they have to write more complex code than just a static array definition, but people are willing and able to do it. I don't think there's anything about the current FromSpec that suggests all the parameters have to be interpreter-agnostic. And the design does suggest that we'll add more later without having to break the ABI (otherwise it would be a regular struct). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue15870> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
