[Zope-dev] Creating ExtensionClass instances in C

[James Henstridge]

Have you tried calling it?  That seems to be what python does in order to
create instances.  Something like:
  instance = PyObject_CallFunction((PyObject *)extension_class,
                                   "formatstring", constructor_args);

I think that should also work on normal python classes.

BTW, I have my extensionclass C subclassing patch in the collector at:
  http://classic.zope.org:8080/Collector/1179/view

if anyone wants it.  I also have an example of its use in the test release
of my python bindings for gtk at:
  ftp://ftp.daa.com.au/pub/james/python/pygtk-0.7.0-unstable-dont-use.tar.gz

(I should probably put up a newer snapshot at some point).

James.
