There are no much need in nullable ints, if they are needed, different use cases require different semantic. I don't think we can now write general converters which will cover different use cases. May be in 3.5, when behavior changes will be possible. I know only one use case for nullable Py_ssize_t converter (and mmap_convert_ssize_t is much simpler). itertolls.repeat doesn't need it, because it shouldn't accept None. Let defer this issue until most of code will be converted. Then we can accumulate statistic about nullable in converters. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20341> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
