This would have to be considered in conjunction with the proposed programmatic type-building API, I think. I'd like to see a migration towards something like that, BTW. Recently I had occasion to do some work on a Ruby extension module, and I was struck by how much more pleasant it was to be able to create a class and add a few functions to it using calls, rather than having to wrestle with a huge static struct declaration. While I like the Python language better than Ruby, I think Ruby's extension API is ahead in this particular area. -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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
