Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PULL 03/15] qapi: Make c_type() more OO-like
Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2016 11:04:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1458295469-22215-4-git-send-email-armbru@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1458295469-22215-1-git-send-email-armbru@redhat.com>

From: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>

QAPISchemaType.c_type() is a bit awkward: it takes two optional
boolean flags is_param and is_unboxed, and they should never both
be True.

Add a new method for each of the flags, and drop the flags from
c_type().

Most callers pass no flags; they remain unchanged.

One caller passes is_param=True; call the new .c_param_type()
instead.

One caller passes is_unboxed=True, except for simple union types.
This is actually an ugly special case that will go away soon, so
until then, we now have to call either .c_type() or the new
.c_unboxed_type().  Tolerable in the interim.

It requires slightly more Python, but is arguably easier to read.
