I am also not happy with that. Originally they were in Modules/posixmodule.c. However where should we place the declarations? We have not posixmodule.h. PyLong_FromPid()/PyLong_AsPid() placed right in Include/longobject.h. Are you have any suggestions? > Is it possible to just use PyLong_FromLong / PyLong_FromLongLong etc. > depending on the precision of uid_t / gid_t? No. uid_t/gid_t can be large than maximal signed long, and long long can be not defined. See issue2005 where more complex patch proposed. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4591> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
