We already have two helper functions in py-utils.c:
gdb_py_object_from_longest (LONGEST l)
gdb_py_object_from_ulongest (ULONGEST l)
these wrap around calls to either PyLong_FromLongLong,
PyLong_FromLong, or PyInt_From_Long (if Python 2 is being used).
There is one place in gdb/python/* where a call to PyLong_FromLong was
added outside of the above utility functions, this was done in the
recent commit:
commit 55789354fc
Date: Fri May 14 11:56:31 2021 +0200
gdb/python: add a 'connection_num' attribute to Inferior objects
In this commit I replace the direct use of PyLong_FromLong with a call
to gdb_py_object_from_longest. The only real change with this commit,
is that, for Python 2, we will now end up calling PyInt_FromLong
instead of PyLong_FromLong, but this should be invisible to the user.
For Python 3 there should be absolutely no change.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* python/py-inferior.c (infpy_get_connection_num): Call
gdb_py_object_from_longest instead of PyLong_FromLong directly.
