Lets change EnvironmentError errno attribute (myerrno in C) to string. 'EXYZ' strings can be interned, which will make them more efficient than integers for lookups and comparisons (to literals). A half-way and backward compatible solution would be to stick 'EXYZ' code at the end of the args tuple and add an errnosym attribute. _______________________________________________ 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
