[Python-Dev] ssize_t: ints in header files

Here's the int questions. The entire list is too big to post (50k), so it's here: http://www.python.org/neal/header-ints Should the following values be ints (limited to 2G)? * dict counts (ma_fill, ma_used, ma_mask) * line #s and column #s * AST (asdl.h) sequences * recursion limit * read/write/send/recv results and buf size * code object values like # args, # locals, stacksize, # instructions * sre (i think i have a patch to fix this somewhere) Please try to review the APIs and let us know if there are any values you think should be 64-bits on 64-bit platforms. n
