Does not compile for Python 2.4. #44

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Py_ssize_t type isn't defined in Python 2.4 headers and int is used
instead. The following trivial patch helps (although it is not perfect -
PY_MAJOR_VERSION should also be checked).

Thanks for your patch. But we don't support python-2.4, and currently there is 
no
plan to support python-2.4.
