Jeremy Hylton 938ace69a0 staticforward bites the dust. The staticforward define was needed to support certain broken C compilers (notably SCO ODT 3.0, perhaps early AIX as well) botched the static keyword when it was used with a forward declaration of a static initialized structure. Standard C allows the forward declaration with static, and we've decided to stop catering to broken C compilers. (In fact, we expect that the compilers are all fixed eight years later.) I'm leaving staticforward and statichere defined in object.h as static. This is only for backwards compatibility with C extensions that might still use it.

Jeremy Hylton 938ace69a0 staticforward bites the dust.

The staticforward define was needed to support certain broken C
compilers (notably SCO ODT 3.0, perhaps early AIX as well) botched the
static keyword when it was used with a forward declaration of a static
initialized structure.  Standard C allows the forward declaration with
static, and we've decided to stop catering to broken C compilers.  (In
fact, we expect that the compilers are all fixed eight years later.)

I'm leaving staticforward and statichere defined in object.h as
static.  This is only for backwards compatibility with C extensions
that might still use it.

BGEN -- Automatic Generation of Extension Modules
=================================================

This directory contains BGEN -- a package that helps in generating
complete source code for Python extension module.  For examples of its
use, see the Mac Python source distribution (available separately
from the Python ftp archives).  Note that BGEN is not Mac specific!
