Vinay Sajip added the comment: type(-2**31) is long for 2.5 and 2.6 as well as 2.7. The check was added as a response to #6314, to catch incorrect values being passed as levels.
It could be argued that -2**31 is not a sensible log level. While int and long are supposed to be interchangeable for most purposes, isn't this a reasonable case where you shouldn't need to support long? If you feel not, what scenarios do you believe lie outside the "most purposes"? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15710> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
