Message 411816 - Python tracker (original) (raw)

TODO:

• Macros still accessing directly PyTypeObject members:

  • PyHeapType_GET_MEMBERS()
  • PySequence_ITEM()
  • _PyObject_SIZE()
  • _PyObject_VAR_SIZE()
  • PyType_SUPPORTS_WEAKREFS()

• Try again to apply "bpo-40170: PyType_HasFeature() now always calls PyType_GetFlags() (GH-19378)" which has been reverted?

• Py_TYPE(obj)->tp_name is still commonly used to format error messages: see rejected bpo-34595

Other TODO tasks which can be addressed in follow-up issues:

• Add buffer protocol to PyType_FromSpec()
• Stdlib C extensions still define static types: see bpo-40077
• 3rd party C extensions still define static types: PEP 630 and others propose heap types
