New submission from Jim Jewett: https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/2df7c958974e/Objects/dictobject.c#l451
The comments near lookdict suggest that specialized versions such as lookdict_unicode and lookdict_unicode_nodummy cannot return NULL, as that would indicate an Exception was raised during comparison. They can return NULL, because if the *search* key is not unicode, they replace themselves with the generic lookdict and then return its result, which may be NULL. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 243968 nosy: Jim.Jewett priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: erroneous comments in dictobject.c type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24274> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
