mdcb added the comment: naively and coming from C, you have time_t to represent time so even though underneath it's typedef, it gives the casual user like me comfort (2038 not accounted). I don't know the details why struct timespec was chosen rather than nanoseconds as integer, and in fact would rather leave that worry to others. maybe a typdef PyTimeStamp would make the defacto you mention more obvious, and maybe class timestamp(int):pass in python that seems to bring even more meaning but I don't know how you map that in the C API.
more practically speaking: you're welcomed to close this issue since it's seeminly going nowhere. ---------- _______________________________________ 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
