Fwd: Re : Validate that IntegerField is a valid Signed value

Done [Django] #15939 : SignedIntegerField? / UnsignedIntegerField? as part of the core fields.py [Django] #15940

Re: Re : Validate that IntegerField is a valid Signed value

I really can't tell if those two new fields would be integrated in core, either wait for feedback here, and/or give it a try with a ticket (and i'm pretty sure it'll land in "Design Decision Needed"). On May 1, 2:42 pm, "Cal Leeming [Simplicity Media Ltd]"

Re : Validate that IntegerField is a valid Signed value

Yeah, subclassing sounds the way forward. I was thinking something like: SignedIntegerField = IntegerField(min_value=–2147483648, max_value= 2147483647) UnsignedIntegerField = IntegerField(min_value=0, max_value=4294967295) Do you think there would be much chance in having these two field types

For reference, this discussion is linked to http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/f0b8ddbda03a2d8e and to the ticket http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/15923 Cal, The only thing that i could imagine regarding "fixing" this issue would indeed be a documentation

Re: Re : Validate that IntegerField is a valid Signed value

Hey Mathieu, Thanks for taking the time to reply. I'm starting to see now why the core devs are reluctant to modify IntegerField. I'm wondering if maybe Django should have a SignedIntegerField and UnsignedIntegerField as part of the core (for those that wish to have enforced 32-bit integers),

Re : Validate that IntegerField is a valid Signed value

Hello, I'm afraid there isn't such a thing as "a valid signed value", if we're still talking about "size wise". For django (python), the integer you gave in the ticket is perfectly valid. Here's a way for you to check that : >>> s = '351760125423456632454565345363453423453465345453' >>> int(s)
