Right. If you call directly PyCFunction functions, you will likely get quickly a crash. But... who call directly PyCFunction functions? Why not using the 30+ functions to call functions? Hopefully, it's easy to support METH_FASTCALL in an existing function getting a tuple: int nargs = (int)PyTuple_GET_SIZE(args); PyObject **stack = &PyTuple_GETITEM(args, 0); result = func(self, stack, nargs, kwargs); I guess that Cython calls directly PyCFunction. cpyext module of PyPy probably too. Ok, except of them, are you aware of other projects doing that? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27810> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
