Objets *bytes*
**************

These functions raise "TypeError" when expecting a bytes parameter and
called with a non-bytes parameter.

type PyBytesObject

   This subtype of "PyObject" represents a Python bytes object.

PyTypeObject PyBytes_Type
    * Part of the Stable ABI.*

   This instance of "PyTypeObject" represents the Python bytes type;
   it is the same object as "bytes" in the Python layer.

int PyBytes_Check(PyObject *o)

   Return true if the object *o* is a bytes object or an instance of a
   subtype of the bytes type.  This function always succeeds.

int PyBytes_CheckExact(PyObject *o)

   Return true if the object *o* is a bytes object, but not an
   instance of a subtype of the bytes type.  This function always
   succeeds.

PyObject *PyBytes_FromString(const char *v)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Return a new bytes object with a copy of the string *v* as value on
   success, and "NULL" on failure.  The parameter *v* must not be
   "NULL"; it will not be checked.

PyObject *PyBytes_FromStringAndSize(const char *v, Py_ssize_t len)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Return a new bytes object with a copy of the string *v* as value
   and length *len* on success, and "NULL" on failure.  If *v* is
   "NULL", the contents of the bytes object are uninitialized.

PyObject *PyBytes_FromFormat(const char *format, ...)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Take a C "printf()"-style *format* string and a variable number of
   arguments, calculate the size of the resulting Python bytes object
   and return a bytes object with the values formatted into it.  The
   variable arguments must be C types and must correspond exactly to
   the format characters in the *format* string.  The following format
   characters are allowed:

   An unrecognized format character causes all the rest of the format
   string to be copied as-is to the result object, and any extra
   arguments discarded.

   [1] For integer specifiers (d, u, ld, lu, zd, zu, i, x): the
       0-conversion flag has effect even when a precision is given.

PyObject *PyBytes_FromFormatV(const char *format, va_list vargs)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Identical to "PyBytes_FromFormat()" except that it takes exactly
   two arguments.

PyObject *PyBytes_FromObject(PyObject *o)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Return the bytes representation of object *o* that implements the
   buffer protocol.

Py_ssize_t PyBytes_Size(PyObject *o)
    * Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Return the length of the bytes in bytes object *o*.

Py_ssize_t PyBytes_GET_SIZE(PyObject *o)

   Similar to "PyBytes_Size()", but without error checking.

char *PyBytes_AsString(PyObject *o)
    * Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Return a pointer to the contents of *o*.  The pointer refers to the
   internal buffer of *o*, which consists of "len(o) + 1" bytes.  The
   last byte in the buffer is always null, regardless of whether there
   are any other null bytes.  The data must not be modified in any
   way, unless the object was just created using
   "PyBytes_FromStringAndSize(NULL, size)". It must not be
   deallocated.  If *o* is not a bytes object at all,
   "PyBytes_AsString()" returns "NULL" and raises "TypeError".

char *PyBytes_AS_STRING(PyObject *string)

   Similar to "PyBytes_AsString()", but without error checking.

int PyBytes_AsStringAndSize(PyObject *obj, char **buffer, Py_ssize_t *length)
    * Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Return the null-terminated contents of the object *obj* through the
   output variables *buffer* and *length*. Returns "0" on success.

   If *length* is "NULL", the bytes object may not contain embedded
   null bytes; if it does, the function returns "-1" and a
   "ValueError" is raised.

   The buffer refers to an internal buffer of *obj*, which includes an
   additional null byte at the end (not counted in *length*).  The
   data must not be modified in any way, unless the object was just
   created using "PyBytes_FromStringAndSize(NULL, size)".  It must not
   be deallocated.  If *obj* is not a bytes object at all,
   "PyBytes_AsStringAndSize()" returns "-1" and raises "TypeError".

   Modifié dans la version 3.5: Previously, "TypeError" was raised
   when embedded null bytes were encountered in the bytes object.

void PyBytes_Concat(PyObject **bytes, PyObject *newpart)
    * Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Create a new bytes object in **bytes* containing the contents of
   *newpart* appended to *bytes*; the caller will own the new
   reference.  The reference to the old value of *bytes* will be
   stolen.  If the new object cannot be created, the old reference to
   *bytes* will still be discarded and the value of **bytes* will be
   set to "NULL"; the appropriate exception will be set.

void PyBytes_ConcatAndDel(PyObject **bytes, PyObject *newpart)
    * Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Create a new bytes object in **bytes* containing the contents of
   *newpart* appended to *bytes*.  This version releases the *strong
   reference* to *newpart* (i.e. decrements its reference count).

int _PyBytes_Resize(PyObject **bytes, Py_ssize_t newsize)

   Resize a bytes object. *newsize* will be the new length of the
   bytes object. You can think of it as creating a new bytes object
   and destroying the old one, only more efficiently. Pass the address
   of an existing bytes object as an lvalue (it may be written into),
   and the new size desired.  On success, **bytes* holds the resized
   bytes object and "0" is returned; the address in **bytes* may
   differ from its input value.  If the reallocation fails, the
   original bytes object at **bytes* is deallocated, **bytes* is set
   to "NULL", "MemoryError" is set, and "-1" is returned.

PyObject *PyBytes_Repr(PyObject *bytes, int smartquotes)
    * Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Get the string representation of *bytes*. This function is
   currently used to implement "bytes.__repr__()" in Python.

   This function does not do type checking; it is undefined behavior
   to pass *bytes* as a non-bytes object or "NULL".

   If *smartquotes* is true, the representation will use a double-
   quoted string instead of single-quoted string when single-quotes
   are present in *bytes*. For example, the byte string "'Python'"
   would be represented as "b"'Python'"" when *smartquotes* is true,
   or "b'\'Python\''" when it is false.

   On success, this function returns a *strong reference* to a "str"
   object containing the representation. On failure, this returns
   "NULL" with an exception set.

PyObject *PyBytes_DecodeEscape(const char *s, Py_ssize_t len, const char *errors, Py_ssize_t unicode, const char *recode_encoding)
    * Part of the Stable ABI.*

   Unescape a backslash-escaped string *s*. *s* must not be "NULL".
   *len* must be the size of *s*.

   *errors* must be one of ""strict"", ""replace"", or ""ignore"". If
   *errors* is "NULL", then ""strict"" is used by default.

   On success, this function returns a *strong reference* to a Python
   "bytes" object containing the unescaped string. On failure, this
   function returns "NULL" with an exception set.

   Modifié dans la version 3.9: *unicode* and *recode_encoding* are
   now unused.
