Larry Hastings added the comment: Oh, and, as to whether Argument Clinic would solve this problem, the answer is "not yet". Right now Argument Clinic literally generates calls to PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords. (In special cases it switches to PyArg_ParseTuple.)
I'm more interested in Argument Clinic from the API perspective; I wanted to make a better way of specifying arguments to functions so we got all the metadata we needed without having to endlessly repeat ourselves. Truthfully I was hoping someone else would pick up the gauntlet once it was checked in and make a new argument processing API / hack up the Argument Clinic output to make it faster. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17170> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
