Compilation cleanups

Martin v. Löwis — Sun, 27 Feb 2005 18:55:56 -0000

This patch cleans up a few warnings that gcc reports.
In _fam_pending, the complaint is about the assignment

if (pyval = PyInt_FromLong(1)) {

While this is C-wise correct, it is not Python-wise: if
PyInt_FromLong would indeed return NULL, you would have
to return NULL to the caller. Instead of doing that, I
rewrote the entire function to return Py_True/Py_False
(which will return booleans in 2.3 and later).

Yet another setup.py

This is my take of a setup.py for python-fam. Unlike
the other patch, this does not create a fam package.

distutils setup

I created a distutils setup for python-fam

This makes it trivial to create an rpm.

Since this also creates a new package fam to contain
_fam.so it should probably bump the version number to 1.1

crash due to missing hostname

I compiled python-fam on my system (debian 3.0). The
included test.py ran fine, but I encountered a crash
after making use of it from a different application.

I traced the problem to the hostname field being NULL
in _fam_next_event. The attached patch checks for this
condition, and sets the python string to the empty
string in this case.
