[Python-Dev] Re: [Python-checkins] python/dist/src/Modules threadmodule.c, 2.56, 2.56.8.1

Yes, there are patches. There happens to be two entries because I missed 
some documentation changes the first time around. The links are:

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=5470&atid=305470&func=detail&aid=876130
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=5470&atid=305470&func=detail&aid=986010

The files changed are
dist/src/Modules/datetimemodule.c
dist/src/Include/datetime.h
dist/src/Doc/api/concrete.tex

To summarize, an attribute named "datetime_CAPI" is added to the 
datetime module. A macro PyDateTime_IMPORT is used to access this 
attribute and then additional macros are available for manipulating 
datetime instances. If you want to look at an actual implementation you 
can take a look at cx_Oracle 4.1 beta 1 available at 
http://starship.python.net/crew/atuining

If you have further questions, let me know and I'll try to answer them.
