Larry Hastings added the comment: Actually, forget about the file output preset. It wouldn't work for posixmodule. > 80% of the entry points are #ifdef conditional on platform functionality. Which means the Clinic generated stuff needs to be #ifdef too.
It wouldn't be that hard to add the ability to #ifdef your generated code... but then what? Should it generate an #endif too, right before the end of the block? If it closed the #ifdef, then it'd look dumb: /*[clinic input]* ifdef HAVE_WHATNOT os.whatnot [clinic start generated code]*/ #ifdef HAVE_WHATNOT ... static PyObject * os_whatnot(PyModuleType *) #endif /* HAVE_WHATNOT */ /*[clinic end generated code: output=... ]*/ #ifdef HAVE_WHATNOT { ... } #endif /* HAVE_WHATNOT */ If it didn't close the #ifdef, well, that looks dumb too: /*[clinic input]* ifdef HAVE_WHATNOT os.whatnot [clinic start generated code]*/ #ifdef HAVE_WHATNOT ... static PyObject * os_whatnot(PyModuleType *) /*[clinic end generated code: output=... ]*/ { ... } #endif /* HAVE_WHATNOT */ though maybe that's less dumb. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20170> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
