I wanted to use the h2py.py script (Tools/scripts/h2py.py) and it didn'tVery probably - bug reports outside the tracker are likely to go unnoticed
like char litterals :
Skipping: PC_ERROR = ord()
where my *.h file contained :
#define PC_ERROR '0'
I searched the web and found a post with the same error :
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pyt...er/340608.html
but it got no replies, I tried the fix and it works. I have the
following questions:
1) Why did it not get any attention, is something wrong with it?
2) If nothing is wrong, did the fix not get applied because a bug report
wasn't filed?
or forgotten.
3) Isn't turning a char literal into the ordinal value not contrary toIt's not so clear what's the intended usage - chars are also integers in
what a C programmer had in mind when he/she defined it? I mean if you
define a char literal then in python you would have used a string value :
#define PC_ERROR '0'
would become :
PC_ERROR = '0'
in python, and if you intended to use the char type for an 8 bit
numerical value you would have done :
#define PC_ERROR 0x30
where 0x30 is the '0' ascii hex value, so shouldn'it the line in the
diff (see the post) be :
body = p_char.sub("'\\1'", body)
instead of :
body = p_char.sub("ord('\\1')", body)
C. (I prefer the current behavior, but certainly it may be wrong in
several places).
