Larry Hastings added the comment: We discussed it in IRC a bit (and I got a little education). I can propose three remedies:
A) back out the Clinic conversion in _ssl.c B) support Clinic in 2.7 just for _ssl.c C) do a one-time backport of the Clinic generated code for _ssl.c IMO these are in my reverse order of preference; I'd prefer C, then B, then A. But I'm not supporting _ssl.c, you guys are. And I want you maintainers to be happy. So I'll abide by / help you in implementing whatever you prefer. FWIW, option C would mean doing an otherwise-inert backport of the current _ssl.c from trunk to 2.7, so that we could also backport (by hand) Modules/clinic/_ssl.c. Then, if in the future, when you change _ssl.c you still copy that file over and tweak it. But: if you change the arguments to a function, you'd have to *hand-edit* Modules/clinic/_ssl.c to match. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20179> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
