I'm willing to believe there is a new and better way, but I don't think I know what it is. How do we change this code, written using the old PyObject_GC_New() to do things the new way?

Jeremy

PyObject * PyDict_New(void) { register dictobject mp; if (dummy == NULL) { / Auto-initialize dummy */ dummy = PyString_FromString(""); if (dummy == NULL) return NULL; #ifdef SHOW_CONVERSION_COUNTS Py_AtExit(show_counts); #endif } mp = PyObject_GC_New(dictobject, &PyDict_Type); if (mp == NULL) return NULL; EMPTY_TO_MINSIZE(mp); mp->ma_lookup = lookdict_string; #ifdef SHOW_CONVERSION_COUNTS ++created; #endif _PyObject_GC_TRACK(mp); return (PyObject *)mp; }
