> Maybe name it Py_TPFLAGS_IMMUTABLETYPE? "TPFLAGS" stands for "type flags". So IMO adding "TYPE" suffix is redundant. If tomorrow, we want to add a flag for immutable instance, we can add a new Py_TPFLAGS_IMMUTABLE_INSTANCE flag. On the other side, TYPE suffix is consistent with other flags :-) /* Set if the type object is dynamically allocated */ #define Py_TPFLAGS_HEAPTYPE (1UL << 9) /* Set if the type allows subclassing */ #define Py_TPFLAGS_BASETYPE (1UL << 10)
