patch for PyCFunction_NewEx? about python4delphi HOT 7 CLOSED

It should not make any difference to P4D. PyCFunction_New calls PyCFunction_NewEx with the last argument set to nil.

PyAPI_FUNC(PyObject *)PyCFunction_New(PyMethodDef *ml, PyObject *self)
{
    return PyCFunction_NewEx(ml, self, NULL);
}

PyObject *PyCFunction_NewEx(PyMethodDef *ml, PyObject *self, PyObject *module)

from python4delphi.

this NewEx function not needed for P4D? Why did you add it to PythonEngine then. (my fork don't have it.)

from python4delphi.

I now remember. PyCFunction_New was not exported in Python 3.4. It appears this has been fixed in 3.6 and later.

See https://bugs.python.org/issue21354

from python4delphi.

and why _NewEx function was added here? it is not documented API in py.

from python4delphi.

So the change is needed to support certain versions of Python 3.4, 3.5

from python4delphi.

The lack of documentation is another Python bug:

from python4delphi.

Ok, will add in my fork too.
