New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr>: In « Parsing arguments and building values » (c-api/arg.html), it should be made clear that "*" typecodes are recommended over the "#" typecodes, which are inherently unsafe.
(more generally, the page is totally unreadable, a solution might be to group the typecodes by family: numbers, strings/buffers, objects; also, there are so many choices that it's confusing which ones should be preferred) ---------- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation, Interpreter Core messages: 93276 nosy: georg.brandl, pitrou priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Recommend "*" over "#" in getargs.c typecodes versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7018> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
