[issue11707] Create C version of functools.cmp_to_key()

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment:

functools_cmp_to_key() doesn't check that the argument is a callable.

>>> table=list(range(3))
>>> table.sort(key=functools.cmp_to_key(3))
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: 'int' object is not callable

PyCallable_Check() should be used, something like:

    if (!PyCallable_Check(cmp)) {
        PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "parameter must be callable");
        return NULL;
    }
