We use a lot of UnsignedLongLongs in our program (ids) and have been parsing in PyArg_ParseTuple with 'K', which does not do error checking. I am planning to add a new type to our local build of python for parsing Unsigned Long Longs (64 bit numbers) that errrors if the number has more than the correct number of bits.
I am thinking to use the letter 'N' for this purpose, since l,k,K,U,u are all taken.
Does anyone have any better ideas? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/attachments/20120315/a80543d5/attachment.html>
