This document is for an old version of Python that is no longer supported. You should upgrade and read the documentação do Python para versão estável atual.

# Utilitários do sistema operacional

int `Py_FdIsInteractive`(FILE *fp, const char *filename)

  Return true (nonzero) if the standard I/O file fp with name filename is deemed interactive. This is the case for files for which `isatty(fileno(fp))` is true. If the global flag `Py_InteractiveFlag` is true, this function also returns true if the filename pointer is NULL or if the name is equal to one of the strings `'<stdin>'` or `'???'`.

void `PyOS_AfterFork`()

  Função para atualizar algum estado interno após um processo de garfo; Isso deve ser chamado no novo processo se o intérprete do Python continuar a ser usado. Se um novo executável é carregado no novo processo, esta função não precisa ser chamada.

int `PyOS_CheckStack`()

  Retornar verdadeiro quando o intérprete ficar sem espaço de pilha. Esta é uma verificação confiável, mas só está disponível quando `USE_STACKCHECK` está definido (atualmente no Windows usando o compilador Microsoft Visual C++). `USE_STACKCHECK` será definido automaticamente; Você nunca deve mudar a definição em seu próprio código.

PyOS_sighandler_t `PyOS_getsig`(int i)

  Retorna o manipulador de sinal atual para o sinal i. Este é um invólucro fino em torno de `sigaction()` ou `signal()`. Não ligue para essas funções diretamente! `PyOS_sighandler_t` é um alias de typedef para `void (*)(int)`.

PyOS_sighandler_t `PyOS_setsig`(int i, PyOS_sighandler_t h)

  Defina o manipulador de sinal para que o sinal i seja h; Devolva o antigo manipulador de sinal. Este é um invólucro fino em torno de `sigaction()` ou `signal()`. Não ligue para essas funções diretamente! `PyOS_sighandler_t` é um alias de typedef para `void (*)(int)`.

# System Functions

These are utility functions that make functionality from the `sys` module accessible to C code. They all work with the current interpreter thread’s `sys` module’s dict, which is contained in the internal thread state structure.

PyObject *`PySys_GetObject`(char *name)
  Return value: Borrowed reference.

  Return the object name from the `sys` module or NULL if it does not exist, without setting an exception.

FILE *`PySys_GetFile`(char *name, FILE *def)

  Return the `FILE*` associated with the object name in the `sys` module, or def if name is not in the module or is not associated with a `FILE*`.

int `PySys_SetObject`(char *name, PyObject *v)

  Set name in the `sys` module to v unless v is NULL, in which case name is deleted from the sys module. Returns `0` on success, `-1` on error.

void `PySys_ResetWarnOptions`()

  Reset `sys.warnoptions` to an empty list.

void `PySys_AddWarnOption`(char *s)

  Append s to `sys.warnoptions`.

void `PySys_SetPath`(char *path)

  Set `sys.path` to a list object of paths found in path which should be a list of paths separated with the platform’s search path delimiter (`:` on Unix, `;` on Windows).

void `PySys_WriteStdout`(const char *format, ...)

  Write the output string described by format to `sys.stdout`. No exceptions are raised, even if truncation occurs (see below).

  format should limit the total size of the formatted output string to 1000 bytes or less – after 1000 bytes, the output string is truncated. In particular, this means that no unrestricted “%s” formats should occur; these should be limited using “%.<N>s” where <N> is a decimal number calculated so that <N> plus the maximum size of other formatted text does not exceed 1000 bytes. Also watch out for “%f”, which can print hundreds of digits for very large numbers.

  If a problem occurs, or `sys.stdout` is unset, the formatted message is written to the real (C level) stdout.

void `PySys_WriteStderr`(const char *format, ...)

  As above, but write to `sys.stderr` or stderr instead.

# Process Control

void `Py_FatalError`(const char *message)

  Print a fatal error message and kill the process. No cleanup is performed. This function should only be invoked when a condition is detected that would make it dangerous to continue using the Python interpreter; e.g., when the object administration appears to be corrupted. On Unix, the standard C library function `abort()` is called which will attempt to produce a `core` file.

void `Py_Exit`(int status)

  Exit the current process. This calls `Py_Finalize()` and then calls the standard C library function `exit(status)`.

int `Py_AtExit`(void (*func)())

  Register a cleanup function to be called by `Py_Finalize()`. The cleanup function will be called with no arguments and should return no value. At most 32 cleanup functions can be registered. When the registration is successful, `Py_AtExit()` returns `0`; on failure, it returns `-1`. The cleanup function registered last is called first. Each cleanup function will be called at most once. Since Python’s internal finalization will have completed before the cleanup function, no Python APIs should be called by func.
