Martin, what do you think about this kind of changes? Are there possible regressions or incompatibilities? |

AFAICT, they are compatible, so +1. The typical proposition of an incompatible change either proposes to use const char* as the return type, or has multi-level pointers that are proposed to be constified. |

Any reason why this issue is still open? I just got a lot of compiler warnings when building Numpy, so this isn't just relevant to C++ programmers. (Btw., I did RTFM: the issue's Resolution is "accepted" but that option is not documented.) |

Let's try this again for 3.4 |

Docs update needed. Perhaps some other functions which accepts char* (i.e. PyObject_CallMethodObjArgs or PyDict_GetItemString) should be fixed. |

Oops, forgot to save changes to Doc/c-api/object.rst. PyObject_CallMethodObjArgs takes a PyObject*, mustn't that be non-const for reference counting to work? PyDict_GetItemString already has const, just not in refcounts.dat. Fixed. |

> PyObject_CallMethodObjArgs takes a PyObject*, mustn't that be non-const for reference counting to work? Then refcounts.dat wrong. > PyDict_GetItemString already has const, just not in refcounts.dat. Fixed. There are a lot of char* arguments in refcounts.dat. If refcounts.dat differs from actual function signature, this is a bug, and fix must be applied to other versions too. If they conform, perhaps this argument can be enhanced to "const char*" in 3.4. Therefore two issues are needed, one for the new feature, and one for the bugfixing. |

I'm sorry, I really don't understand this refcounts.dat file and I'm not going to hack it further. Does the patch as it currently stands solve the issue with CallMethod and CallFunction, or not? (It has the changes to the docs.) |
