One reason for not liking it is that it only works well when you only call one such function from a given function. If there are two, you have to worry about not reaching the second one due to the first one failing, in which case you need to decref the second one's args yourself. In the long run it's probably best to stick to the conventional conventions, which are there for a reason -- they work! -- Greg Ewing, Computer Science Dept, +--------------------------------------+ University of Canterbury, | A citizen of NewZealandCorp, a | Christchurch, New Zealand | wholly-owned subsidiary of USA Inc. | [EMAIL PROTECTED] +--------------------------------------+ _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
