Macros for the stub case of dtrace are "fine" because they're so simple. I mainly converted them to see if it would cause problems (e.g., this bug report) before seeking further expansion. Many of CPython's uglier macros could be replaced by inline funtions. Inline functions provide the same performance benefit of macros while improving type safety, debugability, and avoiding notorious macro quirks like double evaluation. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28092> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
