I created the issue #19518 to add documentation (but also to add even more functions :-)). > Also, if they're part of the stable ABI, they need a version guard. As most PyRunxxx() functions, the function is declared in a "#ifndef PyLIMITEDAPI" block. It means that it is not part of the stable ABI, is that correct?

Yeah, that's fine - I'm just replying on my phone at the moment, so checking the broader file context is a pain :)

Cheers, Nick.

Yeah, it would be nice to have a tool to list changes on the stable ABI :-) * * * For a previous issue, I also added various other functions like PyParserASTFromStringObject() or PyParserASTFromFileObject(). As PyRunInteractiveOneObject(), they are declared in a "#ifndef PyLIMITEDAPI" block in pythonrun.h. These new functions are not documented, because PyParserAST*() functions are not documented. http://bugs.python.org/issue11619 http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/df2fdd42b375 The patch parserunicode.patch was attached to the issue during 2 years. First I didn't want to commit it becaues it added too many new functions. But I pushed by change because some Windows users like using the full Unicode range in the name of their scripts and modules! If it's not too late, I would appreciate a review of the stable ABI of this changeset. Victor
