Python has a distinct integer division operator, "//". 7 // 3 returns the integer 2.
-----Original Message----- From: libstdc++-ow...@gcc.gnu.org [mailto:libstdc++-ow...@gcc.gnu.org] On Behalf Of Jonathan Wakely Sent: Monday, September 19, 2016 10:11 AM To: libstd...@gcc.gnu.org; gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org Subject: [PATCH] libstdc++/77645 fix deque and vector xmethods for Python 3 The problem for these xmethods is that in Python 3 division of two integers produces a float, and GDB then doesn't allow that value to be used for pointer arithmetic (https://sourceware.org/PR20622). PR libstdc++/77645 * python/libstdcxx/v6/xmethods.py (DequeWorkerBase.__init__) (DequeWorkerBase.index, VectorWorkerBase.get): Cast results of division to int to work with Python 3. Tested x86_64-linux, committed to trunk. I'll fix it for gcc-5 and gcc-6 too.
