Byte Array Objects

type PyByteArrayObject

This subtype of PyObject represents a Python bytearray object.

PyTypeObject PyByteArray_Type
Part of the Stable ABI.

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

Type check macros

int PyByteArray_Check(PyObject *o)

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

int PyByteArray_CheckExact(PyObject *o)

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

Direct API functions

PyObject *PyByteArray_FromObject(PyObject *o)
Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja. Part of the Stable ABI.

Return a new bytearray object from any object, o, that implements the buffer protocol.

PyObject *PyByteArray_FromStringAndSize(const char *string, Py_ssize_t len)
Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja. Part of the Stable ABI.

Create a new bytearray object from string and its length, len. On failure, NULL is returned.

PyObject *PyByteArray_Concat(PyObject *a, PyObject *b)
Wartość zwracana: nowa referencja. Part of the Stable ABI.

Concat bytearrays a and b and return a new bytearray with the result.

Py_ssize_t PyByteArray_Size(PyObject *bytearray)
Part of the Stable ABI.

Return the size of bytearray after checking for a NULL pointer.

char *PyByteArray_AsString(PyObject *bytearray)
Part of the Stable ABI.

Return the contents of bytearray as a char array after checking for a NULL pointer. The returned array always has an extra null byte appended.

int PyByteArray_Resize(PyObject *bytearray, Py_ssize_t len)
Part of the Stable ABI.

Resize the internal buffer of bytearray to len.

Macros

These macros trade safety for speed and they don’t check pointers.

char *PyByteArray_AS_STRING(PyObject *bytearray)

Macro version of PyByteArray_AsString().

Py_ssize_t PyByteArray_GET_SIZE(PyObject *bytearray)

Macro version of PyByteArray_Size().
