The _ctypes extension module could have a dict that maps each format code to its (size, alignment), based on `formattable`. Then direct size comparisons wouldn't be limited to types defined by the struct module, and it wouldn't be necessary to create c_longdouble just to check its size and throw it away. ---------- nosy: +eryksun _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue12142> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
