[Python-Dev] Arguments and PyInt_AsLong (original) (raw)

Looking at #1153226, I found this:

We introduced emitting a DeprecationWarning for PyArg_ParseTuple integer arguments if a float was given. This doesn't affect functions like file.seek which use PyInt_AsLong to parse their argument. PyInt_AsLong calls the nb_int slot which silently converts floats to ints.

Is that acceptable, should PyInt_AsLong not accept other numbers or should the functions be changed?
