Module Objects
**************

PyTypeObject PyModule_Type
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable.*

   This instance of "PyTypeObject" represents the Python module type.
   This is exposed to Python programs as "types.ModuleType".

int PyModule_Check(PyObject *p)

   Return true if *p* is a module object, or a subtype of a module
   object. This function always succeeds.

int PyModule_CheckExact(PyObject *p)

   Return true if *p* is a module object, but not a subtype of
   "PyModule_Type".  This function always succeeds.

PyObject *PyModule_NewObject(PyObject *name)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Fait partie de l' ABI
   stable depuis la version 3.7.*

   Return a new module object with "module.__name__" set to *name*.
   The module's "__name__", "__doc__", "__package__" and "__loader__"
   attributes are filled in (all but "__name__" are set to "None").
   The caller is responsible for setting a "__file__" attribute.

   Return "NULL" with an exception set on error.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.3.

   Modifié dans la version 3.4: "__package__" and "__loader__" are now
   set to "None".

PyObject *PyModule_New(const char *name)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Fait partie de l' ABI
   stable.*

   Similar to "PyModule_NewObject()", but the name is a UTF-8 encoded
   string instead of a Unicode object.

PyObject *PyModule_GetDict(PyObject *module)
    *Valeur de retour : référence empruntée.** Fait partie de l' ABI
   stable.*

   Return the dictionary object that implements *module*'s namespace;
   this object is the same as the "__dict__" attribute of the module
   object. If *module* is not a module object (or a subtype of a
   module object), "SystemError" is raised and "NULL" is returned.

   It is recommended extensions use other "PyModule_*" and
   "PyObject_*" functions rather than directly manipulate a module's
   "__dict__".

   The returned reference is borrowed from the module; it is valid
   until the module is destroyed.

PyObject *PyModule_GetNameObject(PyObject *module)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Fait partie de l' ABI
   stable depuis la version 3.7.*

   Return *module*'s "__name__" value.  If the module does not provide
   one, or if it is not a string, "SystemError" is raised and "NULL"
   is returned.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.3.

const char *PyModule_GetName(PyObject *module)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable.*

   Similar to "PyModule_GetNameObject()" but return the name encoded
   to "'utf-8'".

   The returned buffer is only valid until the module is renamed or
   destroyed. Note that Python code may rename a module by setting its
   "__name__" attribute.

PyModuleDef *PyModule_GetDef(PyObject *module)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable.*

   Return a pointer to the "PyModuleDef" struct from which the module
   was created, or "NULL" if the module wasn't created from a
   definition.

   On error, return "NULL" with an exception set. Use
   "PyErr_Occurred()" to tell this case apart from a missing
   "PyModuleDef".

PyObject *PyModule_GetFilenameObject(PyObject *module)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Fait partie de l' ABI
   stable.*

   Return the name of the file from which *module* was loaded using
   *module*'s "__file__" attribute.  If this is not defined, or if it
   is not a string, raise "SystemError" and return "NULL"; otherwise
   return a reference to a Unicode object.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.2.

const char *PyModule_GetFilename(PyObject *module)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable.*

   Similar to "PyModule_GetFilenameObject()" but return the filename
   encoded to 'utf-8'.

   The returned buffer is only valid until the module's "__file__"
   attribute is reassigned or the module is destroyed.

   Obsolète depuis la version 3.2: "PyModule_GetFilename()" raises
   "UnicodeEncodeError" on unencodable filenames, use
   "PyModule_GetFilenameObject()" instead.


Module definition
=================

Modules created using the C API are typically defined using an array
of "PySlot" structs, which provides a "description" of how a module
should be created. See Definition slots for more information on slots
in general.

Modifié dans la version 3.15: Previously, a "PyModuleDef" struct was
necessary to define modules. The older way of defining modules is
still available: consult either the Module definition struct section
or earlier versions of this documentation if you plan to support
earlier Python versions.

The slots array is usually used to define an extension module's “main”
module object (see Defining extension modules for details). It can
also be used to create extension modules dynamically.

Unless specified otherwise, the same slot ID may not be repeated in an
array of slots.


Metadata slots
--------------

Py_mod_name
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   "Slot ID" for the name of the new module, as a NUL-terminated
   UTF8-encoded "const char *".

   Note that modules are typically created using a "ModuleSpec", and
   when they are, the name from the spec will be used instead of
   "Py_mod_name". However, it is still recommended to include this
   slot for introspection and debugging purposes.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15: Use "PyModuleDef.m_name" instead to
   support previous versions.

Py_mod_doc
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   "Slot ID" for the docstring of the new module, as a NUL-terminated
   UTF8-encoded "const char *".

   Usually it is set to a variable created with "PyDoc_STRVAR".

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15: Use "PyModuleDef.m_doc" instead to
   support previous versions.


Feature slots
-------------

Py_mod_abi
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   "Slot ID" whose value points to a "PyABIInfo" structure describing
   the ABI that the extension is using.

   A suitable "PyABIInfo" variable can be defined using the
   "PyABIInfo_VAR" macro, as in:

      PyABIInfo_VAR(abi_info);

      static PySlot mymodule_slots[] = {
         PySlot_DATA(Py_mod_abi, &abi_info),
         ...
      };

   When creating a module, Python checks the value of this slot using
   "PyABIInfo_Check()".

   This slot is required, except for modules created from
   "PyModuleDef".

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15.

Py_mod_multiple_interpreters
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.12.*

   "Slot ID" whose value is one of:

   Py_MOD_MULTIPLE_INTERPRETERS_NOT_SUPPORTED

      The module does not support being imported in subinterpreters.

   Py_MOD_MULTIPLE_INTERPRETERS_SUPPORTED

      The module supports being imported in subinterpreters, but only
      when they share the main interpreter's GIL. (See Isolating
      Extension Modules.)

   Py_MOD_PER_INTERPRETER_GIL_SUPPORTED

      The module supports being imported in subinterpreters, even when
      they have their own GIL. (See Isolating Extension Modules.)

   This slot determines whether or not importing this module in a
   subinterpreter will fail.

   If "Py_mod_multiple_interpreters" is not specified, the import
   machinery defaults to "Py_MOD_MULTIPLE_INTERPRETERS_SUPPORTED".

   Ajouté dans la version 3.12.

Py_mod_gil
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.13.*

   "Slot ID" whose value is one of:

   Py_MOD_GIL_USED

      The module depends on the presence of the global interpreter
      lock (GIL), and may access global state without synchronization.

   Py_MOD_GIL_NOT_USED

      The module is safe to run without an active GIL.

   This slot is ignored by Python builds not configured with "--
   disable-gil".  Otherwise, it determines whether or not importing
   this module will cause the GIL to be automatically enabled. See
   Free-threaded CPython for more detail.

   If "Py_mod_gil" is not specified, the import machinery defaults to
   "Py_MOD_GIL_USED".

   Ajouté dans la version 3.13.


Creation and initialization slots
---------------------------------

Py_mod_create
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.5.*

   "Slot ID" for a function that creates the module object itself. The
   function must have the signature:

   PyObject *create_module(PyObject *spec, PyModuleDef *def)

   The function will be called with:

   * *spec*: a "ModuleSpec"-like object, meaning that any attributes
     defined for "importlib.machinery.ModuleSpec" have matching
     semantics. However, any of the attributes may be missing.

   * *def*: "NULL", or the module definition if the module is created
     from one.

   The function should return a new module object, or set an error and
   return "NULL".

   This function should be kept minimal. In particular, it should not
   call arbitrary Python code, as trying to import the same module
   again may result in an infinite loop.

   If "Py_mod_create" is not specified, the import machinery will
   create a normal module object using "PyModule_New()". The name is
   taken from *spec*, not the definition, to allow extension modules
   to dynamically adjust to their place in the module hierarchy and be
   imported under different names through symlinks, all while sharing
   a single module definition.

   There is no requirement for the returned object to be an instance
   of "PyModule_Type". However, some slots may only be used with
   "PyModule_Type" instances; in particular:

   * "Py_mod_exec",

   * module state slots ("Py_mod_state_*"),

   * "Py_mod_token".

   Ajouté dans la version 3.5.

   Modifié dans la version 3.15: The *slots* argument may be a
   "ModuleSpec"-like object, rather than a true "ModuleSpec" instance.
   Note that previous versions of CPython did not enforce this.The
   *def* argument may now be "NULL", since modules are not necessarily
   made from definitions.

Py_mod_exec
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.5.*

   "Slot ID" for a function that will *execute*, or initialize, the
   module. This function does the equivalent to executing the code of
   a Python module: typically, it adds classes and constants to the
   module. The signature of the function is:

   int exec_module(PyObject *module)

   See the Support functions section for some useful functions to
   call.

   For backwards compatibility, the "PyModuleDef.m_slots" array may
   contain multiple "Py_mod_exec" slots; these are processed in the
   order they appear in the array. Elsewhere (that is, in arguments to
   "PyModule_FromSlotsAndSpec()" and in return values of
   "PyModExport_*<name>*"), repeating the slot is not allowed.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.5.

   Modifié dans la version 3.15: Repeated "Py_mod_exec" slots are
   disallowed, except in "PyModuleDef.m_slots".

Py_mod_methods
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   "Slot ID" for a table of module-level functions, as an array of
   "PyMethodDef" values suitable as the *functions* argument to
   "PyModule_AddFunctions()".

   Like other slot IDs, a slots array may only contain one
   "Py_mod_methods" entry. To add functions from multiple
   "PyMethodDef" arrays, call "PyModule_AddFunctions()" in the
   "Py_mod_exec" function.

   The table must be statically allocated (or otherwise guaranteed to
   outlive the module object).

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15: Use "PyModuleDef.m_methods" instead to
   support previous versions.


Module state
============

Extension modules can have *module state* -- a piece of memory that is
allocated on module creation, and freed when the module object is
deallocated. The module state is specified using dedicated slots.

A typical use of module state is storing an exception type -- or
indeed *any* type object defined by the module --

Unlike the module's Python attributes, Python code cannot replace or
delete data stored in module state.

Keeping per-module information in attributes and module state, rather
than in static globals, makes module objects *isolated* and safer for
use in multiple sub-interpreters. It also helps Python do an orderly
clean-up when it shuts down.

Extensions that keep references to Python objects as part of module
state must implement "Py_mod_state_traverse" and "Py_mod_state_clear"
functions to avoid reference leaks.

To retrieve the state from a given module, use the following
functions:

void *PyModule_GetState(PyObject *module)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable.*

   Return the "state" of the module, that is, a pointer to the block
   of memory allocated at module creation time, or "NULL".  See
   "Py_mod_state_size".

   On error, return "NULL" with an exception set. Use
   "PyErr_Occurred()" to tell this case apart from missing module
   state.

int PyModule_GetStateSize(PyObject *module, Py_ssize_t *result)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   Set **result* to the size of *module*'s state, as specified using
   "Py_mod_state_size" (or "PyModuleDef.m_size"), and return 0.

   On error, set **result* to -1, and return -1 with an exception set.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15.


Slots for defining module state
-------------------------------

The following "slot IDs"  are available for defining the module state.

Py_mod_state_size
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   "Slot ID" for the size of the module state, in bytes.

   Setting the value to a non-negative value means that the module can
   be re-initialized and specifies the additional amount of memory it
   requires for its state.

   See **PEP 3121** for more details.

   Use "PyModule_GetStateSize()" to retrieve the size of a given
   module.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15: Use "PyModuleDef.m_size" instead to
   support previous versions.

Py_mod_state_traverse
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   "Slot ID" for a traversal function to call during GC traversal of
   the module object.

   The signature of the function, and meanings of the arguments, is
   similar as for "PyTypeObject.tp_traverse":

   int traverse_module_state(PyObject *module, visitproc visit, void *arg)

   This function is not called if the module state was requested but
   is not allocated yet. This is the case immediately after the module
   is created and before the module is executed ("Py_mod_exec"
   function). More precisely, this function is not called if the state
   size ("Py_mod_state_size") is greater than 0 and the module state
   (as returned by "PyModule_GetState()") is "NULL".

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15: Use "PyModuleDef.m_size" instead to
   support previous versions.

Py_mod_state_clear
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   "Slot ID" for a clear function to call during GC clearing of the
   module object.

   The signature of the function is:

   int clear_module_state(PyObject *module)

   This function is not called if the module state was requested but
   is not allocated yet. This is the case immediately after the module
   is created and before the module is executed ("Py_mod_exec"
   function). More precisely, this function is not called if the state
   size ("Py_mod_state_size") is greater than 0 and the module state
   (as returned by "PyModule_GetState()") is "NULL".

   Like "PyTypeObject.tp_clear", this function is not *always* called
   before a module is deallocated. For example, when reference
   counting is enough to determine that an object is no longer used,
   the cyclic garbage collector is not involved and the
   "Py_mod_state_free" function is called directly.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15: Use "PyModuleDef.m_clear" instead to
   support previous versions.

Py_mod_state_free
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   "Slot ID" for a function to call during deallocation of the module
   object.

   The signature of the function is:

   int free_module_state(PyObject *module)

   This function is not called if the module state was requested but
   is not allocated yet. This is the case immediately after the module
   is created and before the module is executed ("Py_mod_exec"
   function). More precisely, this function is not called if the state
   size ("Py_mod_state_size") is greater than 0 and the module state
   (as returned by "PyModule_GetState()") is "NULL".

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15: Use "PyModuleDef.m_free" instead to
   support previous versions.


Module token
------------

Each module may have an associated *token*: a pointer-sized value
intended to identify of the module state's memory layout. This means
that if you have a module object, but you are not sure if it “belongs”
to your extension, you can check using code like this:

   PyObject *module = <the module in question>

   void *module_token;
   if (PyModule_GetToken(module, &module_token) < 0) {
       return NULL;
   }
   if (module_token != your_token) {
       PyErr_SetString(PyExc_ValueError, "unexpected module")
       return NULL;
   }

   // This module's state has the expected memory layout; it's safe to cast
   struct my_state state = (struct my_state*)PyModule_GetState(module)

A module's token -- and the *your_token* value to use in the above
code -- is:

* For modules created with "PyModuleDef": the address of that
  "PyModuleDef";

* For modules defined with the "Py_mod_token" slot: the value of that
  slot;

* For modules created from an "PyModExport_*" export hook: the slots
  array that the export hook returned (unless overridden with
  "Py_mod_token").

Py_mod_token
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   "Slot ID" for the module token.

   If you use this slot to set the module token (rather than rely on
   the default), you must ensure that:

   * The pointer outlives the class, so it's not reused for something
     else while the class exists.

   * It "belongs" to the extension module where the class lives, so it
     will not clash with other extensions.

   * If the token points to a "PyModuleDef" struct, the module should
     behave as if it was created from that "PyModuleDef". In
     particular, the module state must have matching layout and
     semantics.

   Modules created from "PyModuleDef" always use the address of the
   "PyModuleDef" as the token. This means that "Py_mod_token" cannot
   be used in "PyModuleDef.m_slots".

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15.

int PyModule_GetToken(PyObject *module, void **result)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   Set **result* to the module token for *module* and return 0.

   On error, set **result* to NULL, and return -1 with an exception
   set.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15.

See also "PyType_GetModuleByToken()".


Creating extension modules dynamically
======================================

The following functions may be used to create an extension module
dynamically, rather than from an extension's export hook.

PyObject *PyModule_FromSlotsAndSpec(const PySlot *slots, PyObject *spec)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Fait partie de l' ABI
   stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   Create a new module object, given an array of slots and the
   "ModuleSpec" *spec*.

   The *slots* argument must point to an array of "PySlot" structures,
   terminated by an entry with slot ID of 0 (typically written as
   "PySlot_END"). The array must include a "Py_mod_abi" entry.

   The *spec* argument may be any "ModuleSpec"-like object, as
   described in "Py_mod_create" documentation. Currently, the *spec*
   must have a "name" attribute.

   On success, return the new module. On error, return "NULL" with an
   exception set.

   Note that this does not process the module's execution slot
   ("Py_mod_exec"). Both "PyModule_FromSlotsAndSpec()" and
   "PyModule_Exec()" must be called to fully initialize a module. (See
   also Multi-phase initialization.)

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15.

int PyModule_Exec(PyObject *module)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   Execute the "Py_mod_exec" slot(s) of *module*.

   On success, return 0. On error, return -1 with an exception set.

   For clarity: If *module* has no slots, for example if it uses
   legacy single-phase initialization, this function does nothing and
   returns 0.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15.


Module definition struct
========================

Traditionally, extension modules were defined using a *module
definition* as the “description" of how a module should be created.
Rather than using an array of slots directly, the definition has
dedicated members for most common functionality, and allows additional
slots as an extension mechanism.

This way of defining modules is still available and there are no plans
to remove it.

type PyModuleDef
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable (see below).*

   The module definition struct, which holds information needed to
   create a module object.

   This structure must be statically allocated (or be otherwise
   guaranteed to be valid while any modules created from it exist).
   Usually, there is only one variable of this type for each extension
   module defined this way.

   The struct, including all members, is part of the Stable ABI for
   non-free-threaded builds ("abi3"). In the Stable ABI for free-
   threaded builds ("abi3t"), this struct is opaque, and unusable in
   practice; see Module definition for a replacement.

   PyModuleDef_Base m_base

      Always initialize this member to "PyModuleDef_HEAD_INIT":

      type PyModuleDef_Base
          * Fait partie de l' ABI stable (see below).*

         The type of "PyModuleDef.m_base".

         The struct is part of the Stable ABI for non-free-threaded
         builds ("abi3"). In the Stable ABI for Free-Threaded Builds
         ("abi3t"), this struct is opaque, and unusable in practice.

      PyModuleDef_HEAD_INIT

         The required initial value for "PyModuleDef.m_base".

   const char *m_name

      Corresponds to the "Py_mod_name" slot.

   const char *m_doc

      These members correspond to the "Py_mod_doc" slot. Setting this
      to NULL is equivalent to omitting the slot.

   Py_ssize_t m_size

      Corresponds to the "Py_mod_state_size" slot. Setting this to
      zero is equivalent to omitting the slot.

      When using legacy single-phase initialization or when creating
      modules dynamically using "PyModule_Create()" or
      "PyModule_Create2()", "m_size" may be set to -1. This indicates
      that the module does not support sub-interpreters, because it
      has global state.

   PyMethodDef *m_methods

      Corresponds to the "Py_mod_methods" slot. Setting this to NULL
      is equivalent to omitting the slot.

   PyModuleDef_Slot *m_slots

      An array of additional slots, terminated by a "{0, NULL}" entry.
      Note that the entries use the older "PyModuleDef_Slot"
      structure, rather than "PySlot".

      If the array contains slots corresponding to "PyModuleDef"
      members, the values must match. For example, if you use
      "Py_mod_name" in "m_slots", "PyModuleDef.m_name" must be set to
      the same pointer (not just an equal string).

      Modifié dans la version 3.5: Prior to version 3.5, this member
      was always set to "NULL", and was defined as:

         inquiry m_reload

      type PyModuleDef_Slot
          * Fait partie de l' ABI stable (incluant tous les attributs)
         depuis la version 3.5.*

         Older structure defining additional slots of a module.

         Note that a "PyModuleDef_Slot" array may be included in a
         "PySlot" array using "Py_mod_slots", and vice versa using
         "Py_slot_subslots".

         Each "PyModuleDef_Slot" structure "modslot" is interpreted as
         the following "PySlot" structure:

            (PySlot){
               .sl_id=modslot.slot,
               .sl_flags=PySlot_INTPTR | sub_static,
               .sl_ptr=modslot.value
            }

         where "sub_static" is "PySlot_STATIC" if the slot requires
         the flag (such as for "Py_mod_methods"), or if this flag is
         present on the "parent" "Py_mod_slots" slot (if any).

         int slot

            Corresponds to "PySlot.sl_id".

         void *value

            Corresponds to "PySlot.sl_ptr".

         Ajouté dans la version 3.5.

   traverseproc m_traverse
   inquiry m_clear
   freefunc m_free

      These members correspond to the "Py_mod_state_traverse",
      "Py_mod_state_clear", and "Py_mod_state_free" slots,
      respectively.

      Setting these members to NULL is equivalent to omitting the
      corresponding slots.

      Modifié dans la version 3.9: "m_traverse", "m_clear" and
      "m_free" functions are no longer called before the module state
      is allocated.

PyTypeObject PyModuleDef_Type
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.5.*

   The type of "PyModuleDef" objects.

Py_mod_slots
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.15.*

   "Slot ID" that works like "Py_slot_subslots", except it specifies
   an array of "PyModuleDef_Slot" structures.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.15.

The following API can be used to create modules from a "PyModuleDef"
struct:

PyObject *PyModule_Create(PyModuleDef *def)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.*

   Create a new module object, given the definition in *def*. This is
   a macro that calls "PyModule_Create2()" with *module_api_version*
   set to "PYTHON_API_VERSION", or to "PYTHON_ABI_VERSION" if using
   the limited API.

PyObject *PyModule_Create2(PyModuleDef *def, int module_api_version)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Fait partie de l' ABI
   stable.*

   Create a new module object, given the definition in *def*, assuming
   the API version *module_api_version*.  If that version does not
   match the version of the running interpreter, a "RuntimeWarning" is
   emitted.

   Return "NULL" with an exception set on error.

   This function does not support slots. The "m_slots" member of *def*
   must be "NULL".

   Note:

     Most uses of this function should be using "PyModule_Create()"
     instead; only use this if you are sure you need it.

PyObject *PyModule_FromDefAndSpec(PyModuleDef *def, PyObject *spec)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.*

   This macro calls "PyModule_FromDefAndSpec2()" with
   *module_api_version* set to "PYTHON_API_VERSION", or to
   "PYTHON_ABI_VERSION" if using the limited API.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.5.

   Soft deprecated since version 3.16.0a0 (unreleased): Prefer
   "PyModule_FromSlotsAndSpec()" in new code.

PyObject *PyModule_FromDefAndSpec2(PyModuleDef *def, PyObject *spec, int module_api_version)
    *Valeur de retour : nouvelle référence.** Fait partie de l' ABI
   stable depuis la version 3.7.*

   Create a new module object, given the definition in *def* and the
   ModuleSpec *spec*, assuming the API version *module_api_version*.
   If that version does not match the version of the running
   interpreter, a "RuntimeWarning" is emitted.

   Return "NULL" with an exception set on error.

   Note that this does not process execution slots ("Py_mod_exec").
   Both "PyModule_FromDefAndSpec" and "PyModule_ExecDef" must be
   called to fully initialize a module.

   Note:

     Most uses of this function should be using
     "PyModule_FromDefAndSpec()" instead; only use this if you are
     sure you need it.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.5.

   Soft deprecated since version 3.16.0a0 (unreleased): Prefer
   "PyModule_FromSlotsAndSpec()" in new code.

int PyModule_ExecDef(PyObject *module, PyModuleDef *def)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.7.*

   Process any execution slots ("Py_mod_exec") given in *def*.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.5.

   Soft deprecated since version 3.16.0a0 (unreleased): To run a
   module's own execution slots, prefer "PyModule_Exec()", which works
   on modules that were not created from a "PyModuleDef" structure.

PYTHON_API_VERSION
PYTHON_API_STRING

   The C API version, as an integer ("1013") and string (""1013""),
   respectively. Defined for backwards compatibility.

   Currently, this constant is not updated in new Python versions, and
   is not useful for versioning. This may change in the future.

PYTHON_ABI_VERSION
PYTHON_ABI_STRING

   Defined as "3" and ""3"", respectively, for backwards
   compatibility.

   Currently, this constant is not updated in new Python versions, and
   is not useful for versioning. This may change in the future.


Support functions
=================

The following functions are provided to help initialize a module
object. They are intended for a module's execution slot
("Py_mod_exec"), the initialization function for legacy single-phase
initialization, or code that creates modules dynamically.

int PyModule_AddObjectRef(PyObject *module, const char *name, PyObject *value)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.10.*

   Add an object to *module* as *name*.  This is a convenience
   function which can be used from the module's initialization
   function.

   On success, return "0". On error, raise an exception and return
   "-1".

   Exemple d'utilisation :

      static int
      add_spam(PyObject *module, int value)
      {
          PyObject *obj = PyLong_FromLong(value);
          if (obj == NULL) {
              return -1;
          }
          int res = PyModule_AddObjectRef(module, "spam", obj);
          Py_DECREF(obj);
          return res;
       }

   To be convenient, the function accepts "NULL" *value* with an
   exception set. In this case, return "-1" and just leave the raised
   exception unchanged.

   The example can also be written without checking explicitly if
   *obj* is "NULL":

      static int
      add_spam(PyObject *module, int value)
      {
          PyObject *obj = PyLong_FromLong(value);
          int res = PyModule_AddObjectRef(module, "spam", obj);
          Py_XDECREF(obj);
          return res;
       }

   Note that "Py_XDECREF()" should be used instead of "Py_DECREF()" in
   this case, since *obj* can be "NULL".

   The number of different *name* strings passed to this function
   should be kept small, usually by only using statically allocated
   strings as *name*. For names that aren't known at compile time,
   prefer calling "PyUnicode_FromString()" and "PyObject_SetAttr()"
   directly. For more details, see "PyUnicode_InternFromString()",
   which may be used internally to create a key object.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.10.

int PyModule_Add(PyObject *module, const char *name, PyObject *value)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.13.*

   Similar to "PyModule_AddObjectRef()", but "steals" a reference to
   *value*. It can be called with a result of function that returns a
   new reference without bothering to check its result or even saving
   it to a variable.

   Exemple d'utilisation :

      if (PyModule_Add(module, "spam", PyBytes_FromString(value)) < 0) {
          goto error;
      }

   Ajouté dans la version 3.13.

int PyModule_AddObject(PyObject *module, const char *name, PyObject *value)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable.*

   Similar to "PyModule_AddObjectRef()", but steals a reference to
   *value* on success (if it returns "0").

   The new "PyModule_Add()" or "PyModule_AddObjectRef()" functions are
   recommended, since it is easy to introduce reference leaks by
   misusing the "PyModule_AddObject()" function.

   Note:

     Unlike other functions that steal references,
     "PyModule_AddObject()" only releases the reference to *value*
     **on success**.This means that its return value must be checked,
     and calling code must "Py_XDECREF()" *value* manually on error.

   Exemple d'utilisation :

      PyObject *obj = PyBytes_FromString(value);
      if (PyModule_AddObject(module, "spam", obj) < 0) {
          // If 'obj' is not NULL and PyModule_AddObject() failed,
          // 'obj' strong reference must be deleted with Py_XDECREF().
          // If 'obj' is NULL, Py_XDECREF() does nothing.
          Py_XDECREF(obj);
          goto error;
      }
      // PyModule_AddObject() stole a reference to obj:
      // Py_XDECREF(obj) is not needed here.

   Soft deprecated since version 3.13.

int PyModule_AddIntConstant(PyObject *module, const char *name, long value)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable.*

   Add an integer constant to *module* as *name*.  This convenience
   function can be used from the module's initialization function.
   Return "-1" with an exception set on error, "0" on success.

   This is a convenience function that calls "PyLong_FromLong()" and
   "PyModule_AddObjectRef()"; see their documentation for details.

int PyModule_AddStringConstant(PyObject *module, const char *name, const char *value)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable.*

   Add a string constant to *module* as *name*.  This convenience
   function can be used from the module's initialization function.
   The string *value* must be "NULL"-terminated. Return "-1" with an
   exception set on error, "0" on success.

   This is a convenience function that calls
   "PyUnicode_InternFromString()" and "PyModule_AddObjectRef()"; see
   their documentation for details.

PyModule_AddIntMacro(module, macro)

   Add an int constant to *module*. The name and the value are taken
   from *macro*. For example "PyModule_AddIntMacro(module, AF_INET)"
   adds the int constant *AF_INET* with the value of *AF_INET* to
   *module*. Return "-1" with an exception set on error, "0" on
   success.

PyModule_AddStringMacro(module, macro)

   Add a string constant to *module*.

int PyModule_AddType(PyObject *module, PyTypeObject *type)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.10.*

   Add a type object to *module*. The type object is finalized by
   calling internally "PyType_Ready()". The name of the type object is
   taken from the last component of "tp_name" after dot. Return "-1"
   with an exception set on error, "0" on success.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.9.

int PyModule_AddFunctions(PyObject *module, PyMethodDef *functions)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.7.*

   Add the functions from the "NULL" terminated *functions* array to
   *module*. Refer to the "PyMethodDef" documentation for details on
   individual entries (due to the lack of a shared module namespace,
   module level "functions" implemented in C typically receive the
   module as their first parameter, making them similar to instance
   methods on Python classes).

   This function is called automatically when creating a module from
   "PyModuleDef" (such as when using Multi-phase initialization,
   "PyModule_Create", or "PyModule_FromDefAndSpec"). Some module
   authors may prefer defining functions in multiple "PyMethodDef"
   arrays; in that case they should call this function directly.

   The *functions* array must be statically allocated (or otherwise
   guaranteed to outlive the module object).

   Ajouté dans la version 3.5.

int PyModule_SetDocString(PyObject *module, const char *docstring)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.7.*

   Set the docstring for *module* to *docstring*. This function is
   called automatically when creating a module from "PyModuleDef"
   (such as when using Multi-phase initialization, "PyModule_Create",
   or "PyModule_FromDefAndSpec").

   Return "0" on success. Return "-1" with an exception set on error.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.5.

int PyUnstable_Module_SetGIL(PyObject *module, void *gil)

   *Fait partie de l' API instable. Peut changer sans avertissement
   d'une version mineure à l'autre.*

   Indicate that *module* does or does not support running without the
   global interpreter lock (GIL), using one of the values from
   "Py_mod_gil". It must be called during *module*'s initialization
   function when using Legacy single-phase initialization. If this
   function is not called during module initialization, the import
   machinery assumes the module does not support running without the
   GIL. This function is only available in Python builds configured
   with "--disable-gil". Return "-1" with an exception set on error,
   "0" on success.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.13.


Module lookup (single-phase initialization)
-------------------------------------------

The legacy single-phase initialization initialization scheme creates
singleton modules that can be looked up in the context of the current
interpreter. This allows the module object to be retrieved later with
only a reference to the module definition.

These functions will not work on modules created using multi-phase
initialization, since multiple such modules can be created from a
single definition.

PyObject *PyState_FindModule(PyModuleDef *def)
    *Valeur de retour : référence empruntée.** Fait partie de l' ABI
   stable.*

   Returns the module object that was created from *def* for the
   current interpreter. This method requires that the module object
   has been attached to the interpreter state with
   "PyState_AddModule()" beforehand. In case the corresponding module
   object is not found or has not been attached to the interpreter
   state yet, it returns "NULL".

int PyState_AddModule(PyObject *module, PyModuleDef *def)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.3.*

   Attaches the module object passed to the function to the
   interpreter state. This allows the module object to be accessible
   via "PyState_FindModule()".

   Only effective on modules created using single-phase
   initialization.

   Python calls "PyState_AddModule" automatically after importing a
   module that uses single-phase initialization, so it is unnecessary
   (but harmless) to call it from module initialization code. An
   explicit call is needed only if the module's own init code
   subsequently calls "PyState_FindModule". The function is mainly
   intended for implementing alternative import mechanisms (either by
   calling it directly, or by referring to its implementation for
   details of the required state updates).

   If a module was attached previously using the same *def*, it is
   replaced by the new *module*.

   The caller must have an *attached thread state*.

   Return "-1" with an exception set on error, "0" on success.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.3.

int PyState_RemoveModule(PyModuleDef *def)
    * Fait partie de l' ABI stable depuis la version 3.3.*

   Removes the module object created from *def* from the interpreter
   state. Return "-1" with an exception set on error, "0" on success.

   The caller must have an *attached thread state*.

   Ajouté dans la version 3.3.
