Subject: Allow conversion of 128-bit integers to Python
X-Git-Tag: gdb-17-branchpoint~4
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=27697103012d289fe279e46a5222308959fe4290;p=thirdparty%2Fbinutils-gdb.git

Allow conversion of 128-bit integers to Python

Currently, trying to convert a 128-bit integer from a gdb.Value to a
Python integer will fail.  This is surprising because Python uses
bigints internally.

The bug here is that valpy_long uses value_as_long, which fails for
anything wider than LONGEST.  This patch fixes the problem by using
the recommended Python API.
