Reading through Modules/mmapmodule.c to work on some documentation I
encountered this:
24 #ifndef MS_WINDOWS
25 #define UNIX
26 #endif
536 #ifdef MS_WINDOWS
537 return PyInt_FromLong((long) FlushViewOfFile(self->data+offset,
siz e));
538 #elif defined(UNIX)
539 /* XXX semantics of return value? */
540 /* XXX flags for msync? */
541 if (-1 == msync(self->data + offset, size, MS_SYNC)) {
542 PyErr_SetFromErrno(mmap_module_error);
543 return NULL;
544 }
545 return PyInt_FromLong(0);
546 #else
547 PyErr_SetString(PyExc_ValueError, "flush not supported on this
syst em");
548 return NULL;
549 #endif
The #else will never be reached, unless I read it wrongly?
