Python 2.3.4 on RedHat Linux FC3. Tools/scripts/h2py.py doesn't translate C char literals. When I feed it a .h file with the single line:
#define GOO 'L' It throws out: Skipping: GOO = ord() And doesn't generate any code. I'm sure this used to work. I fixed it by hacking h2py.py: diff -Naur /usr/lib/python2.3/Tools/scripts/h2py.py h2py.py --- /usr/lib/python2.3/Tools/scripts/h2py.py 2005-02-02 17:22:30.000000000 +0000 +++ h2py.py 2005-09-14 17:58:31.000000000 +0100 @@ -95,7 +95,7 @@ for p in ignores: body = p.sub(' ', body) # replace char literals by ord(...) - body = p_char.sub('ord(\\0)', body) + body = p_char.sub("ord('\\1')", body) # Compute negative hexadecimal constants start = 0 UMAX = 2*(sys.maxint+1) Is this a bug or am I being silly. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
