I didn't submit the patch to SF yet because I am thinking of redesigning
the gc module API. I really don't like the current bitmask interface
for setting options. The redesign could wait for 2.1 but it would be
nice to not have to change a published API.
Does anyone have any ideas on a good interface for setting various GC
options? There may be many options and they may change with the
evolution of the collector. My current idea is to use something like:
gc.get_option(<name>)
gc.set_option(<name>, <value>, ...)
with the module defining constants for options. For example:
gc.set_option(gc.DEBUG_LEAK, 1)
would enable leak debugging. Does this look okay? Should I try to get
it done for 2.0?
