[issue13429] provide __file__ to extension init function

Stefan Behnel added the comment: I'm aware that these things happen, that's why I said it. Actually, wouldn't it rather be *correct* for __file__ to be set to the same file path for all modules that an extension module creates in its init function? That would suggest that _Py_ModuleImportCont

[issue13431] Pass context information into the extension module init function

New submission from Stefan Behnel : This is a follow-up to issue 13429, which deals with setting __file__ on newly created extension modules earlier than it is currently the case. Currently, the module init function of extension modules lacks a way to find out the context in which it is being

Stefan Behnel added the comment: Replying to myself: > I think the right fix for Python 4 would be to simply pass > a context struct into the module init function. Actually, this doesn't have to wait for Python 4. Changing the module init function to take a parameter should be backwards compat

[issue13431] Pass context information into the extension module init function

Martin v. Löwis added the comment: This approach is not correct C. You may pass an "incorrect" number of arguments only if the function is declared with an ellipsis, else the behavior is undefined (6.5.5.2p6). Your proposed approach works with most implementations of C, but Python shouldn't d

[issue13431] Pass context information into the extension module init function

Stefan Behnel added the comment: Yes, that's unfortunate. I found the same paragraph in section 6.5.2.2p6 of the C99 standard now, so it seems that this idea isn't suitable for the Py3.x series. There's no Python 4 target version in the bug tracker, BTW. :) -- __
