Zachary Ware added the comment: I second this request. Every PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords-using function in _winapi has a keyword argument "overlapped" which is stuffed into a C variable "use_overlapped", while the local variable "overlapped" is used for an Overlapped object, which makes for a big hairy diff. There are also several PyArg_ParseTuple-using functions that have the same kind of name mismatch, but since the names don't really mean anything on the Python side when they're positional-only, I don't feel too bad about changing them to make them make sense (or to avoid churn).
Although, for this: Georg Brandl wrote: > sometimes the function uses 'O' in PyArg_ParseTuple and then converts the > object itself with a nontrivial process. This kind of case is a good candidate for considering a custom converter; posixmodule.c has a good example with a path_t converter that I used for a guide in writing one for HKEY in winreg.c. Of course, if that 'nontrivial process' is only done once in one function, a custom converter doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but a rename does. ---------- nosy: +zach.ware _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20227> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
