It isn't that simple - this isn't a mere matter of checking data. The use of the getters during the setter method is a fundamental requirement. At the C layer we have many distinct data types - eg int, unsigned int, long long, unsigned long long, which all map to the same python data type.
Is it worth improving the C code to do relaxed parsing (if the C type is int, but the caller passes a long long with a value that fits in an int, to accept the caller instead of rejecting it as a type mismatch)? -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
