Exactly. :) Actually, the easiest fix is probably this:
import ctypes
def low_change_tuple(tuple, index, newValue):
obj = ctypes.cast(id(tuple), ctypes.POINTER(ctypes.c_long))
obj[3+index] = id(newValue)
def change_tuple(tup, idx, val):
dummy = (val,)
low_change_tuple(dummy, 0, tup[idx])
low_change_tuple(tup, idx, val)
Refcounts are handled by the switch.
