[gdb/python] Add typesafe wrapper around PyObject_CallMethod
In gdb/python/py-tui.c we have code like this: ... gdbpy_ref<> result (PyObject_CallMethod (m_window.get(), "hscroll", "i", num_to_scroll, nullptr)); ... The nullptr is superfluous, the format string already indicates that there's only one method argument. OTOH, passing no method args does use a nullptr: ... gdbpy_ref<> result (PyObject_CallMethod (m_window.get (), "render", nullptr)); ... Furthermore, choosing the right format string chars can be tricky. Add a typesafe wrapper around PyObject_CallMethod that hides these details, such that we can use the more intuitive: ... gdbpy_ref<> result (gdbpy_call_method (m_window.get(), "hscroll", num_to_scroll)); ... and: ... gdbpy_ref<> result (gdbpy_call_method (m_window.get (), "render")); ... Tested on x86_64-linux. Co-Authored-By:Tom de Vries <tdevries@suse.de> Approved-By:
