Actually my problem is that, I need to add a new parameter, 'flag', like
this, xc_assign_device(xxx,xxx,flag). So if I don't refine xc.c, tools

this file while building tools, right?

I answered this in my original reply:
          it is acceptable for the new
         parameter to not be plumbed up to the Python bindings until someone
         comes along with a requirement to use it from Python. IOW you can just
         pass whatever the nop value is for the new argument.


Yes, I knew this but I'm just getting a little confusion again after we're starting to talk if xc.c is compiled...

And I will try to do this.

The "nop value" is whatever value should be passed to retain the current
behaviour.

Sure.

Thanks
