Tim Peters <tim.pet...@gmail.com> added the comment: Whatever works best. Unsure what you mean by "global", though, because it's not a C concept. File-scope variables in C can have internal or external linkage; to get internal linkage, so that lifetime analysis is effective without needing (roughly speaking) cross-file analysis, you have to use the "static" declaration modifier. Without "static", linkage is external, and then in the absence of (roughly speaking) cross-file analysis the compiler must assume the value can be read by code in other files.
So, did you use "static", or not? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8020> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
