This is an interesting idea, but proposed Py_gettimeofday inherits float_time logic of falling back on ftime and then plain time in case gettimeofday is not available. I am not sure this behavior is always beneficial. I notice that Python/ceval_gil.h has a comment /* We assume all modern POSIX systems have gettimeofday() */, which means it handles windows completely differently and using Py_gettimeofday instead of GETTIMEOFDAY in gil code may not be appropriate. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9079> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
