Hello Nick,

It looks overkill, when you can do instead: PyObject* modulename = PyObjectGetAttrString(type, "module"); That only works most of the time, I think. To be honest, I didn't try that, but it doesn't seem that typemodule would jump through the hoops it does if that worked all of the time, unless parsing tpname is legacy code.

Huh? The code above winds up calling type_module!

Cheers, mwh
