Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: As Alexander says, *all* the sizes except those for bytes are platform-dependent: there are platforms where sizeof(short) isn't 2, for example, or where sizeof(int) isn't 4.
It would be possible to add the 'standard' sizes to that table (i.e. the sizes that you get when using '<', '>', etc.); would that be helpful? If you're trying to write cross-platform code then you should probably be using standard size, alignment and byte order anyway. ---------- assignee: -> mark.dickinson nosy: +mark.dickinson _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8469> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
