Yes, I can define __getstate__, __setstate__, and __getinitargs__ (the only one that can actually do any work, since ints are immutable), but I was wondering if there's a more straightforward way to suppress the instance __dict__ in the derived classes.
Setting tp_dictoffset to 0 might help.
AFAICT I don't get to do that, since as I wrote: I am generating extension types derived from a type which is derived from int 'int' by calling the metaclass ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
However, I'm unsure what consequences this has; read the source.
Unfortunately, this is one of the twistiest areas of the Python source, so while I could struggle through it I'm hoping there's someone around here who knows the answer off the top of his benevolent Dutch head <wink> -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
