Status lines for Emacs and Vim have been added to Python sources so they'll be easier to edit using Python's preferred coding style. Some DNS helper functions have been broken up into multiple files. It's nice to have one function per file whenever possible, since that way we don't need -ffunction-sections. Another reason it's good to have small source files, is because the build will be enforcing resource limits on compilation and testing soon. |

About ===== _decimal.c is a wrapper for the libmpdec library. libmpdec is a fast C library for correctly-rounded arbitrary precision decimal floating point arithmetic. It is a complete implementation of Mike Cowlishaw/IBM's General Decimal Arithmetic Specification. Build process for the module ============================ As usual, the build process for _decimal.so is driven by setup.py in the top level directory. setup.py autodetects the following build configurations: 1) x64 - 64-bit Python, x86_64 processor (AMD, Intel) 2) uint128 - 64-bit Python, compiler provides __uint128_t (gcc) 3) ansi64 - 64-bit Python, ANSI C 4) ppro - 32-bit Python, x86 CPU, PentiumPro or later 5) ansi32 - 32-bit Python, ANSI C 6) ansi-legacy - 32-bit Python, compiler without uint64_t 7) universal - Mac OS only (multi-arch) It is possible to override autodetection by exporting: PYTHON_DECIMAL_WITH_MACHINE=value, where value is one of the above options. NOTE ==== decimal.so is not built from a static libmpdec.a since doing so led to failures on AIX (user report) and Windows (mixing static and dynamic CRTs causes locale problems and more).
