Eric Smith <[email protected]> added the comment: I concur. I've also been bitten by forgetting Py_CHARMASK, so a single version that took this into account (and was locale-unaware) would be welcome.
In private mail I'd mentioned that if these are functions, they should take int. But I now think that's incorrect, and they should take char or unsigned char. I think the standard C functions take int because they also allow EOF. I think the Py_ versions should allow only characters and not allow EOF. Py_CHARMASK already enforces this, anyway, with likely undefined results. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <[email protected]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5793> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
