This document is for an old version of Python that is no longer supported. You should upgrade and read the Python documentation for the current stable release.

Avertissement

The CObject API is deprecated as of Python 2.7. Please switch to the new Capsules API.

`PyCObject`

  This subtype of `PyObject` represents an opaque value, useful for C extension modules who need to pass an opaque value (as a `void*` pointer) through Python code to other C code. It is often used to make a C function pointer defined in one module available to other modules, so the regular import mechanism can be used to access C APIs defined in dynamically loaded modules.

int `PyCObject_Check`(PyObject *p)

  Return true if its argument is a `PyCObject`.

PyObject* `PyCObject_FromVoidPtr`(void* cobj, void (*destr)(void *))
  Return value: New reference.

  Create a `PyCObject` from the `void *` cobj. The destr function will be called when the object is reclaimed, unless it is NULL.

PyObject* `PyCObject_FromVoidPtrAndDesc`(void* cobj, void* desc, void (*destr)(void *, void *))
  Return value: New reference.

  Create a `PyCObject` from the `void *` cobj. The destr function will be called when the object is reclaimed. The desc argument can be used to pass extra callback data for the destructor function.

void* `PyCObject_AsVoidPtr`(PyObject* self)

  Return the object `void *` that the `PyCObject` self was created with.

void* `PyCObject_GetDesc`(PyObject* self)

  Return the description `void *` that the `PyCObject` self was created with.

int `PyCObject_SetVoidPtr`(PyObject* self, void* cobj)

  Set the void pointer inside self to cobj. The `PyCObject` must not have an associated destructor. Return true on success, false on failure.
