New submission from Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com>: Here's a patch that adds a PyOS_string_to_double function to complement the recently added PyOS_double_to_string function.
This is supposed to be a more Pythonic version of PyOS_ascii_strtod. It raises Python exceptions to correspond to the various possible errors (malformed string, overflowing number, malloc failure...) instead of requiring the caller to examine errno. It's intended for both internal and external use; if this goes in, I intend to use it in the Python core in places where PyOS_ascii_strtod or PyOS_ascii_atof are currently used. ---------- assignee: marketdickinson components: Interpreter Core files: string_to_double.patch keywords: patch messages: 87048 nosy: eric.smith, marketdickinson severity: normal status: open title: Add PyOS_string_to_double function to C API type: feature request versions: Python 3.1 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file13852/string_to_double.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5914> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
