Maybe I have the wrong version of code. In my pyport.h (checked out from svn trunk) I have. #define PY_SSIZE_T_MAX ((Py_ssize_t)(((size_t)-1)>>1)) What is size_t? Is this supposed to be sizeof(size_t)? I get a syntax error when I actually use PY_SSIZE_T_MAX somewhere in the code. > While looking at the piece of code in Include/pyport.h I do notice that the > fallback (when ssize_t is not available) is to Py_uintptr_t...

I don't have any systems that lack ssize_t. ;P I saw the same thing and figured it was an error. > > Adapting all code in the right way isn't finished yet (not in the last place > because some of the code is... how shall I put it... 'creative'.) I'm just trying to adapt my __index__ patch to use ssize_t. I realize this was a big change and will take some "adjusting." I can help with that if needed as I do have some experience here. I just want to make sure I fully understand what issues Martin and others are concerned about. -Travis _______________________________________________ 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
