PyLong_FromLong ... Thanks for all the links, I hadn't realized there was so much background to the issue, there is some good reading there too. you've changed the title now, but in fact the intention was the other aspect, core nanosecond support in python. I just happened to pick timespec because it does the job and is reasonably widespread. reading all this, and threading lighlty, I was playing with class timestamp(int): pass """measure of time expressed as a number of nanoseconds""" but that seems to loose the type information after doing arithmetics x=timestamp(10) y=timestamp(20) type(x+y) gives <int> ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23084> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
