Remove the private _Py_Identifier type and related private functions from the public C API: * _PyObject_GetAttrId() * _PyObject_LookupSpecialId() * _PyObject_SetAttrId() * _PyType_LookupId() * _Py_IDENTIFIER() * _Py_static_string() * _Py_static_string_init() Move them to the internal C API: add a new pycore_identifier.h header file. No longer export these functions.

Is there a recommendation for what to use instead? I read the discussion linked, but it didn't seem like there was a conclusion on the replacement. |
I'm worried about these APIs :-( No consensus was found on a migration plan to move away from this private API. Maybe we should consider adding back the private API for now until a clear consensus is found. |
