I don't understand: yes, each base 2**30 digit is converted to a pair of base 2**15 digits, and if necessary (i.e., if the top 15 bits of the most significant base 2**30 digit are zero) the size is adjusted. How is this not converting the whole number? > As a result, the format is different than the current mashal version. Can you give an example of an integer n such that marshal.dumps(n) gives you different results with and without the patch? As far as I can tell, I'm getting the same marshal results both with the unpatched version and with the patch applied. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4258> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
