[issue10563] Spurious newline in time.ctime

2010-11-28 Thread Eric Smith
Eric Smith e...@trueblade.com added the comment: There's an error in time_ctime where it expects the length of the string to be fixed: if (p[24] == '\n') p[24] = '\0'; It doesn't count on the year having 5 digits. It should probably say (untested): l = len(p); if (l 0 p

[issue10542] Py_UNICODE_NEXT and other macros for surrogates

2010-11-27 Thread Eric Smith
Eric Smith e...@trueblade.com added the comment: The idea is that the first part refers to what the macro returns (Py_UCS4) and the read part of the name refers to moving a pointer across an array (any array of integers). I thought the first part generally meant the type of the first

[issue10539] Regular expression not checking 'range' element on 1st char in string.

2010-11-26 Thread Eric Smith
Eric Smith e...@trueblade.com added the comment: I think these macros would be a reasonable approach. I think str.center, etc. should support non-BMP chars, because to not do so can raise an exception. Supporting composed graphemes seems like another problem altogether. And while we could fix

Eric Smith e...@trueblade.com added the comment: In addition to the proposed Py_UNICODE_NEXT and Py_UNICODE_PUT_NEXT, str.__format__ would also need a function that tells it how many Py_UNICODEs are needed to store a given Py_UCS4. -- ___ Python

Eric Smith e...@trueblade.com added the comment: I'd need access to this without having to build a PyUnicodeObject, for efficiency. But it sounds like it does have the basic functionality I need. For my use I'd really need it to take the result of Py_UNICODE_NEXT. Something like: Py_ssize_t

2010-11-26 Thread Eric Smith
Eric Smith e...@trueblade.com added the comment: The compiler's decision to inline something should not be related to its ability to put variables in a register. But I definitely agree that we should get the abstraction right first and worry about the implementation later
