Mailman 3 Improvements for Porting C Extension from 2 to 3 - Python-Dev

3 Mar 2011

      Hi,

While porting a C extension from 2 to 3, I realized that there are some
general cases which can be automated. For example, for my specific
application (yappi - http://code.google.com/p/yappi/), all I need to do is
following things:

1) define PyModuleDef
2) change PyString_AS_STRING calls  to _PyUnicode_AsString
3) change module init code a little.

It occurred to me all these kind of standart changes can be automated via a
script.

Not sure on the usability of this however, because of my limited knowledge
on the area.

Does such a tool worth being implemented?
