[issue24250] Optimization for strcpy(..., ) in file 'install.c'
New submission from Bill Parker:
In reviewing calls to strcpy(string, ), I found three instances which could
be re-written as *string = '\0'; which would save the minor overhead of a
function call. The patch file is below:

Bill Parker added the comment: Per Ned Deily, I did send 'ffi.c.patch' to the guys upstream at: https://sourceware.org/libffi/ So hopefully they can review and fix it in the next release :)... Given that Python is spread out, perhaps when a component is selected, it could display source directories and/or files (just a suggestion here)... -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue23878 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
