arguments. This gives about 30% speed improvement for the simplest (but most common) cases. This patch skips the __format__ dispatch, and also avoids creating an object to hold the format_spec. Unfortunately, backporting this to 2.6 is going to be more challenging due to str/unicode issues with format_spec. I'll work on that next. Then I'll spend some time profiling and see what that tells me.
bits shared by the stringobject and unicodeobject implementations (and
possibly other modules, in a not too distant future).
the stuff in here is included into relevant places; see the individual
source files for details.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
the following defines used by the different modules:
STRINGLIB_CHAR
the type used to hold a character (char or Py_UNICODE)
STRINGLIB_EMPTY
a PyObject representing the empty string
int STRINGLIB_CMP(STRINGLIB_CHAR*, STRINGLIB_CHAR*, Py_ssize_t)
compares two strings. returns 0 if they match, and non-zero if not.
Py_ssize_t STRINGLIB_LEN(PyObject*)
returns the length of the given string object (which must be of the
right type)
PyObject* STRINGLIB_NEW(STRINGLIB_CHAR*, Py_ssize_t)
creates a new string object
STRINGLIB_CHAR* STRINGLIB_STR(PyObject*)
returns the pointer to the character data for the given string
object (which must be of the right type)
int STRINGLIB_CHECK_EXACT(PyObject *)
returns true if the object is an instance of our type, not a subclass.
STRINGLIB_MUTABLE
Must be 0 or 1 to tell the cpp macros in stringlib code if the object
being operated on is mutable or not.
