Category: Python Library Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Thomas Heller (theller) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: c_void_pointer should accept a long pointer > 0x7fffffff Initial Comment: Mike Fletcher reported this problem: http://tinyurl.com/esneq Currently, the c_void_p constructor calls PyLong_AsVoidPtr(value), in Modules/_ctypes/cfield.c, near line 1491. This call should be changed to use either PyLong_AsUnsignedLongMask() or PyLong_AsUnsignedLongLongMask() depending on sizeof(void *), and cast the result to (void *). This change would also make the c_void_p behaviour more consistent with the other c_int, c_long and so on constructors since all of them mask the value to the number of bits they can accept. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1518190&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
