Python Initialization Configuration
***********************************


PyInitConfig C API
==================

Added in version 3.14.

Python can be initialized with "Py_InitializeFromInitConfig()".

The "Py_RunMain()" function can be used to write a customized Python
program.

See also Initialization, Finalization, and Threads.

Example
-------

Example of customized Python always running with the Python
Development Mode enabled; return "-1" on error:

   int init_python(void)
   {
       PyInitConfig *config = PyInitConfig_Create();
       if (config == NULL) {
           printf("PYTHON INIT ERROR: memory allocation failed\n");
           return -1;
       }

       // Enable the Python Development Mode
       if (PyInitConfig_SetInt(config, "dev_mode", 1) < 0) {
           goto error;
       }

       // Initialize Python with the configuration
       if (Py_InitializeFromInitConfig(config) < 0) {
           goto error;
       }
       PyInitConfig_Free(config);
       return 0;

   error:
       {
           // Display the error message.
           //
           // This uncommon braces style is used, because you cannot make
           // goto targets point to variable declarations.
           const char *err_msg;
           (void)PyInitConfig_GetError(config, &err_msg);
           printf("PYTHON INIT ERROR: %s\n", err_msg);
           PyInitConfig_Free(config);
           return -1;
       }
   }


Create Config
-------------

struct PyInitConfig

   Opaque structure to configure the Python initialization.

PyInitConfig *PyInitConfig_Create(void)

   Create a new initialization configuration using Isolated
   Configuration default values.

   It must be freed by "PyInitConfig_Free()".

   Return "NULL" on memory allocation failure.

void PyInitConfig_Free(PyInitConfig *config)

   Free memory of the initialization configuration *config*.

   If *config* is "NULL", no operation is performed.


Error Handling
--------------

int PyInitConfig_GetError(PyInitConfig *config, const char **err_msg)

   Get the *config* error message.

   * Set **err_msg* and return "1" if an error is set.

   * Set **err_msg* to "NULL" and return "0" otherwise.

   An error message is a UTF-8 encoded string.

   If *config* has an exit code, format the exit code as an error
   message.

   The error message remains valid until another "PyInitConfig"
   function is called with *config*. The caller doesn't have to free
   the error message.

int PyInitConfig_GetExitCode(PyInitConfig *config, int *exitcode)

   Get the *config* exit code.

   * Set **exitcode* and return "1" if *config* has an exit code set.

   * Return "0" if *config* has no exit code set.

   Only the "Py_InitializeFromInitConfig()" function can set an exit
   code if the "parse_argv" option is non-zero.

   An exit code can be set when parsing the command line failed (exit
   code "2") or when a command line option asks to display the command
   line help (exit code "0").


Get Options
-----------

The configuration option *name* parameter must be a non-NULL null-
terminated UTF-8 encoded string. See Configuration Options.

int PyInitConfig_HasOption(PyInitConfig *config, const char *name)

   Test if the configuration has an option called *name*.

   Return "1" if the option exists, or return "0" otherwise.

int PyInitConfig_GetInt(PyInitConfig *config, const char *name, int64_t *value)

   Get an integer configuration option.

   * Set **value*, and return "0" on success.

   * Set an error in *config* and return "-1" on error.

int PyInitConfig_GetStr(PyInitConfig *config, const char *name, char **value)

   Get a string configuration option as a null-terminated UTF-8
   encoded string.

   * Set **value*, and return "0" on success.

   * Set an error in *config* and return "-1" on error.

   **value* can be set to "NULL" if the option is an optional string
   and the option is unset.

   On success, the string must be released with "free(value)" if it's
   not "NULL".

int PyInitConfig_GetStrList(PyInitConfig *config, const char *name, size_t *length, char ***items)

   Get a string list configuration option as an array of null-
   terminated UTF-8 encoded strings.

   * Set **length* and **value*, and return "0" on success.

   * Set an error in *config* and return "-1" on error.

   On success, the string list must be released with
   "PyInitConfig_FreeStrList(length, items)".

void PyInitConfig_FreeStrList(size_t length, char **items)

   Free memory of a string list created by
   "PyInitConfig_GetStrList()".


Set Options
-----------

The configuration option *name* parameter must be a non-NULL null-
terminated UTF-8 encoded string. See Configuration Options.

Some configuration options have side effects on other options. This
logic is only implemented when "Py_InitializeFromInitConfig()" is
called, not by the "Set" functions below. For example, setting
"dev_mode" to "1" does not set "faulthandler" to "1".

int PyInitConfig_SetInt(PyInitConfig *config, const char *name, int64_t value)

   Set an integer configuration option.

   * Return "0" on success.

   * Set an error in *config* and return "-1" on error.

int PyInitConfig_SetStr(PyInitConfig *config, const char *name, const char *value)

   Set a string configuration option from a null-terminated UTF-8
   encoded string. The string is copied.

   * Return "0" on success.

   * Set an error in *config* and return "-1" on error.

int PyInitConfig_SetStrList(PyInitConfig *config, const char *name, size_t length, char *const *items)

   Set a string list configuration option from an array of null-
   terminated UTF-8 encoded strings. The string list is copied.

   * Return "0" on success.

   * Set an error in *config* and return "-1" on error.


Module
------

int PyInitConfig_AddModule(PyInitConfig *config, const char *name, PyObject *(*initfunc)(void))

   Add a built-in extension module to the table of built-in modules.

   The new module can be imported by the name *name*, and uses the
   function *initfunc* as the initialization function called on the
   first attempted import.

   * Return "0" on success.

   * Set an error in *config* and return "-1" on error.

   If Python is initialized multiple times, "PyInitConfig_AddModule()"
   must be called at each Python initialization.

   Similar to the "PyImport_AppendInittab()" function.


Initialize Python
-----------------

int Py_InitializeFromInitConfig(PyInitConfig *config)

   Initialize Python from the initialization configuration.

   * Return "0" on success.

   * Set an error in *config* and return "-1" on error.

   * Set an exit code in *config* and return "-1" if Python wants to
     exit.

   See "PyInitConfig_GetExitcode()" for the exit code case.

Runtime Python configuration API
================================

At runtime, it's possible to get and set configuration options using
"PyConfig_Get()" and  "PyConfig_Set()" functions.

The configuration option *name* parameter must be a non-NULL null-
terminated UTF-8 encoded string. See Configuration Options.

Some options are read from the "sys" attributes. For example, the
option ""argv"" is read from "sys.argv".

PyObject *PyConfig_Get(const char *name)

   Get the current runtime value of a configuration option as a Python
   object.

   * Return a new reference on success.

   * Set an exception and return "NULL" on error.

   The object type depends on the configuration option. It can be:

   * "bool"

   * "int"

   * "str"

   * "list[str]"

   * "dict[str, str]"

   The caller must have an *attached thread state*. The function
   cannot be called before Python initialization nor after Python
   finalization.

   Added in version 3.14.

int PyConfig_GetInt(const char *name, int *value)

   Similar to "PyConfig_Get()", but get the value as a C int.

   * Return "0" on success.

   * Set an exception and return "-1" on error.

   Added in version 3.14.

PyObject *PyConfig_Names(void)

   Get all configuration option names as a "frozenset".

   * Return a new reference on success.

   * Set an exception and return "NULL" on error.

   The caller must have an *attached thread state*. The function
   cannot be called before Python initialization nor after Python
   finalization.

   Added in version 3.14.

int PyConfig_Set(const char *name, PyObject *value)

   Set the current runtime value of a configuration option.

   * Raise a "ValueError" if there is no option *name*.

   * Raise a "ValueError" if *value* is an invalid value.

   * Raise a "ValueError" if the option is read-only (cannot be set).

   * Raise a "TypeError" if *value* has not the proper type.

   The caller must have an *attached thread state*. The function
   cannot be called before Python initialization nor after Python
   finalization.

   Raises an auditing event "cpython.PyConfig_Set" with arguments
   "name", "value".

   Added in version 3.14.


PyConfig C API
==============

Added in version 3.8.

Python can be initialized with "Py_InitializeFromConfig()" and the
"PyConfig" structure. It can be preinitialized with
"Py_PreInitialize()" and the "PyPreConfig" structure.

There are two kinds of configuration:

* The Python Configuration can be used to build a customized Python
  which behaves as the regular Python. For example, environment
  variables and command line arguments are used to configure Python.

* The Isolated Configuration can be used to embed Python into an
  application. It isolates Python from the system. For example,
  environment variables are ignored, the LC_CTYPE locale is left
  unchanged and no signal handler is registered.

The "Py_RunMain()" function can be used to write a customized Python
program.

See also Initialization, Finalization, and Threads.

Example
-------

Example of customized Python always running in isolated mode:

   int main(int argc, char **argv)
   {
       PyStatus status;

       PyConfig config;
       PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);
       config.isolated = 1;

       /* Decode command line arguments.
          Implicitly preinitialize Python (in isolated mode). */
       status = PyConfig_SetBytesArgv(&config, argc, argv);
       if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
           goto exception;
       }

       status = Py_InitializeFromConfig(&config);
       if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
           goto exception;
       }
       PyConfig_Clear(&config);

       return Py_RunMain();

   exception:
       PyConfig_Clear(&config);
       if (PyStatus_IsExit(status)) {
           return status.exitcode;
       }
       /* Display the error message and exit the process with
          non-zero exit code */
       Py_ExitStatusException(status);
   }


PyWideStringList
----------------

type PyWideStringList

   List of "wchar_t*" strings.

   If *length* is non-zero, *items* must be non-"NULL" and all strings
   must be non-"NULL".

   Methods:

   PyStatus PyWideStringList_Append(PyWideStringList *list, const wchar_t *item)

      Append *item* to *list*.

      Python must be preinitialized to call this function.

   PyStatus PyWideStringList_Insert(PyWideStringList *list, Py_ssize_t index, const wchar_t *item)

      Insert *item* into *list* at *index*.

      If *index* is greater than or equal to *list* length, append
      *item* to *list*.

      *index* must be greater than or equal to "0".

      Python must be preinitialized to call this function.

   Structure fields:

   Py_ssize_t length

      List length.

   wchar_t **items

      List items.


PyStatus
--------

type PyStatus

   Structure to store an initialization function status: success,
   error or exit.

   For an error, it can store the C function name which created the
   error.

   Structure fields:

   int exitcode

      Exit code. Argument passed to "exit()".

   const char *err_msg

      Error message.

   const char *func

      Name of the function which created an error, can be "NULL".

   Functions to create a status:

   PyStatus PyStatus_Ok(void)

      Success.

   PyStatus PyStatus_Error(const char *err_msg)

      Initialization error with a message.

      *err_msg* must not be "NULL".

   PyStatus PyStatus_NoMemory(void)

      Memory allocation failure (out of memory).

   PyStatus PyStatus_Exit(int exitcode)

      Exit Python with the specified exit code.

   Functions to handle a status:

   int PyStatus_Exception(PyStatus status)

      Is the status an error or an exit? If true, the exception must
      be handled; by calling "Py_ExitStatusException()" for example.

   int PyStatus_IsError(PyStatus status)

      Is the result an error?

   int PyStatus_IsExit(PyStatus status)

      Is the result an exit?

   void Py_ExitStatusException(PyStatus status)

      Call "exit(exitcode)" if *status* is an exit. Print the error
      message and exit with a non-zero exit code if *status* is an
      error.  Must only be called if "PyStatus_Exception(status)" is
      non-zero.

Not:

  Internally, Python uses macros which set "PyStatus.func", whereas
  functions to create a status set "func" to "NULL".

Example:

   PyStatus alloc(void **ptr, size_t size)
   {
       *ptr = PyMem_RawMalloc(size);
       if (*ptr == NULL) {
           return PyStatus_NoMemory();
       }
       return PyStatus_Ok();
   }

   int main(int argc, char **argv)
   {
       void *ptr;
       PyStatus status = alloc(&ptr, 16);
       if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
           Py_ExitStatusException(status);
       }
       PyMem_Free(ptr);
       return 0;
   }


PyPreConfig
-----------

type PyPreConfig

   Structure used to preinitialize Python.

   Function to initialize a preconfiguration:

   void PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig(PyPreConfig *preconfig)

      Initialize the preconfiguration with Python Configuration.

   void PyPreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig(PyPreConfig *preconfig)

      Initialize the preconfiguration with Isolated Configuration.

   Structure fields:

   int allocator

      Name of the Python memory allocators:

      * "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_NOT_SET" ("0"): don't change memory
        allocators (use defaults).

      * "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_DEFAULT" ("1"): default memory allocators.

      * "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_DEBUG" ("2"): default memory allocators with
        debug hooks.

      * "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_MALLOC" ("3"): use "malloc()" of the C
        library.

      * "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_MALLOC_DEBUG" ("4"): force usage of
        "malloc()" with debug hooks.

        allocator with debug hooks.

      * "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_MIMALLOC" ("6"): use "mimalloc", a fast
        malloc replacement.

      * "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_MIMALLOC_DEBUG" ("7"): use "mimalloc", a fast
        malloc replacement with debug hooks.

      "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_PYMALLOC" and "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_PYMALLOC_DEBUG"
      are not supported if Python is "configured using --without-
      pymalloc".

      "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_MIMALLOC" and "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_MIMALLOC_DEBUG"
      are not supported if Python is "configured using --without-
      mimalloc" or if the underlying atomic support isn't available.

      See Memory Management.

      Default: "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_NOT_SET".

   int configure_locale

      Set the LC_CTYPE locale to the user preferred locale.

      If equals to "0", set "coerce_c_locale" and
      "coerce_c_locale_warn" members to "0".

      See the *locale encoding*.

      Default: "1" in Python config, "0" in isolated config.

   int coerce_c_locale

      If equals to "2", coerce the C locale.

      If equals to "1", read the LC_CTYPE locale to decide if it
      should be coerced.

      See the *locale encoding*.

      Default: "-1" in Python config, "0" in isolated config.

   int coerce_c_locale_warn

      If non-zero, emit a warning if the C locale is coerced.

      Default: "-1" in Python config, "0" in isolated config.

      Default: "0" in Python mode, "1" in isolated mode.

   int legacy_windows_fs_encoding

      If non-zero:

      * Set "PyPreConfig.utf8_mode" to "0",

      * Set "PyConfig.filesystem_encoding" to ""mbcs"",

      * Set "PyConfig.filesystem_errors" to ""replace"".

      Initialized from the "PYTHONLEGACYWINDOWSFSENCODING" environment
      variable value.

      Only available on Windows. "#ifdef MS_WINDOWS" macro can be used
      for Windows specific code.

      Default: "0".

   int parse_argv

      If non-zero, "Py_PreInitializeFromArgs()" and
      "Py_PreInitializeFromBytesArgs()" parse their "argv" argument
      the same way the regular Python parses command line arguments:
      see Command Line Arguments.

      Default: "1" in Python config, "0" in isolated config.

   int use_environment

      Use environment variables? See "PyConfig.use_environment".

      Default: "1" in Python config and "0" in isolated config.

   int utf8_mode

      If non-zero, enable the Python UTF-8 Mode.

      Set to "0" or "1" by the "-X utf8" command line option and the
      "PYTHONUTF8" environment variable.

      Also set to "1" if the "LC_CTYPE" locale is "C" or "POSIX".

      Default: "-1" in Python config and "0" in isolated config.


Preinitialize Python with PyPreConfig
-------------------------------------

The preinitialization of Python:

* Set the Python memory allocators ("PyPreConfig.allocator")

* Configure the LC_CTYPE locale (*locale encoding*)

* Set the Python UTF-8 Mode ("PyPreConfig.utf8_mode")

The current preconfiguration ("PyPreConfig" type) is stored in
"_PyRuntime.preconfig".

Functions to preinitialize Python:

PyStatus Py_PreInitialize(const PyPreConfig *preconfig)

   Preinitialize Python from *preconfig* preconfiguration.

   *preconfig* must not be "NULL".

PyStatus Py_PreInitializeFromBytesArgs(const PyPreConfig *preconfig, int argc, char *const *argv)

   Preinitialize Python from *preconfig* preconfiguration.

   Parse *argv* command line arguments (bytes strings) if "parse_argv"
   of *preconfig* is non-zero.

   *preconfig* must not be "NULL".

PyStatus Py_PreInitializeFromArgs(const PyPreConfig *preconfig, int argc, wchar_t *const *argv)

   Preinitialize Python from *preconfig* preconfiguration.

   Parse *argv* command line arguments (wide strings) if "parse_argv"
   of *preconfig* is non-zero.

   *preconfig* must not be "NULL".

The caller is responsible to handle exceptions (error or exit) using
"PyStatus_Exception()" and "Py_ExitStatusException()".

For Python Configuration ("PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig()"), if Python
is initialized with command line arguments, the command line arguments
must also be passed to preinitialize Python, since they have an effect
on the pre-configuration like encodings. For example, the "-X utf8"
command line option enables the Python UTF-8 Mode.

"PyMem_SetAllocator()" can be called after "Py_PreInitialize()" and
before "Py_InitializeFromConfig()" to install a custom memory
allocator. It can be called before "Py_PreInitialize()" if
"PyPreConfig.allocator" is set to "PYMEM_ALLOCATOR_NOT_SET".

Python memory allocation functions like "PyMem_RawMalloc()" must not
be used before the Python preinitialization, whereas calling directly
"malloc()" and "free()" is always safe. "Py_DecodeLocale()" must not
be called before the Python preinitialization.

Example using the preinitialization to enable the Python UTF-8 Mode:

   PyStatus status;
   PyPreConfig preconfig;
   PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig(&preconfig);

   preconfig.utf8_mode = 1;

   status = Py_PreInitialize(&preconfig);
   if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
       Py_ExitStatusException(status);
   }

   /* at this point, Python speaks UTF-8 */

   Py_Initialize();
   /* ... use Python API here ... */
   Py_Finalize();


PyConfig
--------

type PyConfig

   Structure containing most parameters to configure Python.

   When done, the "PyConfig_Clear()" function must be used to release
   the configuration memory.

   Structure methods:

   void PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(PyConfig *config)

      Initialize configuration with the Python Configuration.

   void PyConfig_InitIsolatedConfig(PyConfig *config)

      Initialize configuration with the Isolated Configuration.

   PyStatus PyConfig_SetString(PyConfig *config, wchar_t *const *config_str, const wchar_t *str)

      Copy the wide character string *str* into "*config_str".

      Preinitialize Python if needed.

   PyStatus PyConfig_SetBytesString(PyConfig *config, wchar_t *const *config_str, const char *str)

      Decode *str* using "Py_DecodeLocale()" and set the result into
      "*config_str".

      Preinitialize Python if needed.

   PyStatus PyConfig_SetArgv(PyConfig *config, int argc, wchar_t *const *argv)

      Set command line arguments ("argv" member of *config*) from the
      *argv* list of wide character strings.

      Preinitialize Python if needed.

   PyStatus PyConfig_SetBytesArgv(PyConfig *config, int argc, char *const *argv)

      Set command line arguments ("argv" member of *config*) from the
      *argv* list of bytes strings. Decode bytes using
      "Py_DecodeLocale()".

      Preinitialize Python if needed.

   PyStatus PyConfig_SetWideStringList(PyConfig *config, PyWideStringList *list, Py_ssize_t length, wchar_t **items)

      Set the list of wide strings *list* to *length* and *items*.

      Preinitialize Python if needed.

   PyStatus PyConfig_Read(PyConfig *config)

      Read all Python configuration.

      Fields which are already initialized are left unchanged.

      Fields for path configuration are no longer calculated or
      modified when calling this function, as of Python 3.11.

      The "PyConfig_Read()" function only parses "PyConfig.argv"
      arguments once: "PyConfig.parse_argv" is set to "2" after
      arguments are parsed. Since Python arguments are stripped from
      "PyConfig.argv", parsing arguments twice would parse the
      application options as Python options.

      Preinitialize Python if needed.

      3.10 sürümünde değişti: The "PyConfig.argv" arguments are now
      only parsed once, "PyConfig.parse_argv" is set to "2" after
      arguments are parsed, and arguments are only parsed if
      "PyConfig.parse_argv" equals "1".

      3.11 sürümünde değişti: "PyConfig_Read()" no longer calculates
      all paths, and so fields listed under Python Path Configuration
      may no longer be updated until "Py_InitializeFromConfig()" is
      called.

   void PyConfig_Clear(PyConfig *config)

      Release configuration memory.

   Most "PyConfig" methods preinitialize Python if needed. In that
   case, the Python preinitialization configuration ("PyPreConfig") in
   based on the "PyConfig". If configuration fields which are in
   common with "PyPreConfig" are tuned, they must be set before
   calling a "PyConfig" method:

   * "PyConfig.dev_mode"

   * "PyConfig.isolated"

   * "PyConfig.parse_argv"

   * "PyConfig.use_environment"

   Moreover, if "PyConfig_SetArgv()" or "PyConfig_SetBytesArgv()" is
   used, this method must be called before other methods, since the
   preinitialization configuration depends on command line arguments
   (if "parse_argv" is non-zero).

   The caller of these methods is responsible to handle exceptions
   (error or exit) using "PyStatus_Exception()" and
   "Py_ExitStatusException()".

   Structure fields:

   PyWideStringList argv

      Set "sys.argv" command line arguments based on "argv".  These
      parameters are similar to those passed to the program's "main()"
      function with the difference that the first entry should refer
      to the script file to be executed rather than the executable
      hosting the Python interpreter.  If there isn't a script that
      will be run, the first entry in "argv" can be an empty string.

      Set "parse_argv" to "1" to parse "argv" the same way the regular
      Python parses Python command line arguments and then to strip
      Python arguments from "argv".

      If "argv" is empty, an empty string is added to ensure that
      "sys.argv" always exists and is never empty.

      Default: "NULL".

      See also the "orig_argv" member.

   int safe_path

      If equals to zero, "Py_RunMain()" prepends a potentially unsafe
      path to "sys.path" at startup:

      * If "argv[0]" is equal to "L"-m"" ("python -m module"), prepend
        the current working directory.

      * If running a script ("python script.py"), prepend the script's
        directory.  If it's a symbolic link, resolve symbolic links.

      * Otherwise ("python -c code" and "python"), prepend an empty
        string, which means the current working directory.

      Set to "1" by the "-P" command line option and the
      "PYTHONSAFEPATH" environment variable.

      Default: "0" in Python config, "1" in isolated config.

      Added in version 3.11.

   wchar_t *base_exec_prefix

      "sys.base_exec_prefix".

      Default: "NULL".

      Part of the Python Path Configuration output.

      See also "PyConfig.exec_prefix".

   wchar_t *base_executable

      Python base executable: "sys._base_executable".

      Set by the "__PYVENV_LAUNCHER__" environment variable.

      Set from "PyConfig.executable" if "NULL".

      Default: "NULL".

      Part of the Python Path Configuration output.

      See also "PyConfig.executable".

   wchar_t *base_prefix

      "sys.base_prefix".

      Default: "NULL".

      Part of the Python Path Configuration output.

      See also "PyConfig.prefix".

   int buffered_stdio

      If equals to "0" and "configure_c_stdio" is non-zero, disable
      buffering on the C streams stdout and stderr.

      Set to "0" by the "-u" command line option and the
      "PYTHONUNBUFFERED" environment variable.

      stdin is always opened in buffered mode.

      Default: "1".

   int bytes_warning

      If equals to "1", issue a warning when comparing "bytes" or
      "bytearray" with "str", or comparing "bytes" with "int".

      If equal or greater to "2", raise a "BytesWarning" exception in
      these cases.

      Incremented by the "-b" command line option.

      Default: "0".

   int warn_default_encoding

      If non-zero, emit a "EncodingWarning" warning when
      "io.TextIOWrapper" uses its default encoding. See Opt-in
      EncodingWarning for details.

      Default: "0".

      Added in version 3.10.

   int code_debug_ranges

      If equals to "0", disables the inclusion of the end line and
      column mappings in code objects. Also disables traceback
      printing carets to specific error locations.

      Set to "0" by the "PYTHONNODEBUGRANGES" environment variable and
      by the "-X no_debug_ranges" command line option.

      Default: "1".

      Added in version 3.11.

   wchar_t *check_hash_pycs_mode

      Control the validation behavior of hash-based ".pyc" files:

      environment variable.

      Default: "-1" in Python mode, "0" in isolated mode.

   wchar_t *filesystem_encoding

      *Filesystem encoding*: "sys.getfilesystemencoding()".

      On Windows: use ""utf-8"" by default, or ""mbcs"" if
      "legacy_windows_fs_encoding" of "PyPreConfig" is non-zero.

      Default encoding on other platforms:

      * ""utf-8"" if "PyPreConfig.utf8_mode" is non-zero.

      * ""ascii"" if Python detects that "nl_langinfo(CODESET)"
        announces the ASCII encoding, whereas the "mbstowcs()"
        function decodes from a different encoding (usually Latin1).

      * ""utf-8"" if "nl_langinfo(CODESET)" returns an empty string.

      * Otherwise, use the *locale encoding*: "nl_langinfo(CODESET)"
        result.

      At Python startup, the encoding name is normalized to the Python
      codec name. For example, ""ANSI_X3.4-1968"" is replaced with
      ""ascii"".

      See also the "filesystem_errors" member.

   wchar_t *filesystem_errors

      *Filesystem error handler*: "sys.getfilesystemencodeerrors()".

         been loaded.

         Set by the "-X importtime" option and the
         "PYTHONPROFILEIMPORTTIME" environment variable.

         Default: "0".

      3.14 sürümünde değişti: Added support for "import_time = 2"

   int inspect

      Enter interactive mode after executing a script or a command.

      If greater than "0", enable inspect: when a script is passed as
      first argument or the -c option is used, enter interactive mode
      after executing the script or the command, even when "sys.stdin"
      does not appear to be a terminal.

      Incremented by the "-i" command line option. Set to "1" if the
      "PYTHONINSPECT" environment variable is non-empty.

      UTF-8).

   int malloc_stats

      If non-zero, dump statistics on Python pymalloc memory allocator
      at exit.

      Set to "1" by the "PYTHONMALLOCSTATS" environment variable.

      --without-pymalloc option".

      Default: "0".

   wchar_t *platlibdir

      Platform library directory name: "sys.platlibdir".

      Set by the "PYTHONPLATLIBDIR" environment variable.

      Default: value of the "PLATLIBDIR" macro which is set by the
      "configure --with-platlibdir option" (default: ""lib"", or
      ""DLLs"" on Windows).

      Part of the Python Path Configuration input.

      Added in version 3.9.

      3.11 sürümünde değişti: This macro is now used on Windows to
      locate the standard library extension modules, typically under
      "DLLs". However, for compatibility, note that this value is
      ignored for any non-standard layouts, including in-tree builds
      and virtual environments.

      If "module_search_paths_set" is equal to "0",
      "Py_InitializeFromConfig()" will replace "module_search_paths"
      and sets "module_search_paths_set" to "1".

      Default: empty list ("module_search_paths") and "0"
      ("module_search_paths_set").

      Part of the Python Path Configuration output.

      Default: "0".

   PyWideStringList orig_argv

      The list of the original command line arguments passed to the
      Python executable: "sys.orig_argv".

      If "orig_argv" list is empty and "argv" is not a list only
      containing an empty string, "PyConfig_Read()" copies "argv" into
      "orig_argv" before modifying "argv" (if "parse_argv" is non-
      zero).

      See also the "argv" member and the "Py_GetArgcArgv()" function.

      Default: empty list.

      Added in version 3.10.

   int parse_argv

      Parse command line arguments?

      If equals to "1", parse "argv" the same way the regular Python
      parses command line arguments, and strip Python arguments from
      "argv".

      The "PyConfig_Read()" function only parses "PyConfig.argv"
      arguments once: "PyConfig.parse_argv" is set to "2" after
      arguments are parsed. Since Python arguments are stripped from
      "PyConfig.argv", parsing arguments twice would parse the
      application options as Python options.

      Default: "1" in Python mode, "0" in isolated mode.

      3.10 sürümünde değişti: The "PyConfig.argv" arguments are now
      only parsed if "PyConfig.parse_argv" equals to "1".

      Default: "NULL".

   int quiet

      Quiet mode. If greater than "0", don't display the copyright and
      version at Python startup in interactive mode.

      Incremented by the "-q" command line option.

      Default: "0".

   wchar_t *run_command

      objects)?

      Set to "1" by "-X showrefcount" command line option.

      Needs a debug build of Python (the "Py_REF_DEBUG" macro must be
      defined).

      Default: "0".

   int site_import

      Import the "site" module at startup?

      If equal to zero, disable the import of the module site and the
      site-dependent manipulations of "sys.path" that it entails.

      Also disable these manipulations if the "site" module is
      explicitly imported later (call "site.main()" if you want them
      to be triggered).

        if the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" or "POSIX".

      * ""strict"" otherwise.

      See also "PyConfig.legacy_windows_stdio".

   int tracemalloc

      Enable tracemalloc?

      If non-zero, call "tracemalloc.start()" at startup.

      Set by "-X tracemalloc=N" command line option and by the
      "PYTHONTRACEMALLOC" environment variable.

   PyWideStringList warnoptions

      Options of the "warnings" module to build warnings filters,
      lowest to highest priority: "sys.warnoptions".

      The "warnings" module adds "sys.warnoptions" in the reverse
      order: the last "PyConfig.warnoptions" item becomes the first
      item of "warnings.filters" which is checked first (highest
      priority).

      The "-W" command line options adds its value to "warnoptions",
      it can be used multiple times.

command line option.

3.9 sürümünde değişti: The "show_alloc_count" field has been removed.


Initialization with PyConfig
----------------------------

Initializing the interpreter from a populated configuration struct is
handled by calling "Py_InitializeFromConfig()".

The caller is responsible to handle exceptions (error or exit) using
"PyStatus_Exception()" and "Py_ExitStatusException()".

If "PyImport_FrozenModules()", "PyImport_AppendInittab()" or
"PyImport_ExtendInittab()" are used, they must be set or called after
Python preinitialization and before the Python initialization. If
Python is initialized multiple times, "PyImport_AppendInittab()" or
"PyImport_ExtendInittab()" must be called before each Python
initialization.

The current configuration ("PyConfig" type) is stored in
"PyInterpreterState.config".

Example setting the program name:

   void init_python(void)
   {
       PyStatus status;

       PyConfig config;
       PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);

       /* Set the program name. Implicitly preinitialize Python. */
       status = PyConfig_SetString(&config, &config.program_name,
                                   L"/path/to/my_program");
       if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
           goto exception;
       }

       status = Py_InitializeFromConfig(&config);
       if (PyStatus_Exception(status)) {
           goto exception;
       }
       PyConfig_Clear(&config);
       return;

   exception:
       PyConfig_Clear(&config);
       Py_ExitStatusException(status);
   }

More complete example modifying the default configuration, read the
configuration, and then override some parameters. Note that since
3.11, many parameters are not calculated until initialization, and so
values cannot be read from the configuration structure. Any values set
before initialize is called will be left unchanged by initialization:

   PyStatus init_python(const char *program_name)
   {
       PyStatus status;

       PyConfig config;
       PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);

       /* Set the program name before reading the configuration
          (decode byte string from the locale encoding).

Isolated Configuration
----------------------

"PyPreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig()" and "PyConfig_InitIsolatedConfig()"
functions create a configuration to isolate Python from the system.
For example, to embed Python into an application.

This configuration ignores global configuration variables, environment
variables, command line arguments ("PyConfig.argv" is not parsed) and
user site directory. The C standard streams (ex: "stdout") and the
LC_CTYPE locale are left unchanged. Signal handlers are not installed.

Configuration files are still used with this configuration to
determine paths that are unspecified. Ensure "PyConfig.home" is
specified to avoid computing the default path configuration.


Python Configuration
--------------------

"PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig()" and "PyConfig_InitPythonConfig()"
functions create a configuration to build a customized Python which
behaves as the regular Python.

Environments variables and command line arguments are used to
configure Python, whereas global configuration variables are ignored.

This function enables C locale coercion (**PEP 538**) and Python UTF-8
Mode (**PEP 540**) depending on the LC_CTYPE locale, "PYTHONUTF8" and
"PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE" environment variables.


Python Path Configuration
-------------------------

"PyConfig" contains multiple fields for the path configuration:

* Path configuration inputs:

  * "PyConfig.home"

  * "PyConfig.platlibdir"

  * "PyConfig.pathconfig_warnings"

  * "PyConfig.program_name"

  * "PyConfig.pythonpath_env"

  * current working directory: to get absolute paths

  * "PATH" environment variable to get the program full path (from
    "PyConfig.program_name")

  * "__PYVENV_LAUNCHER__" environment variable

  * (Windows only) Application paths in the registry under
    "SoftwarePythonPythonCoreX.YPythonPath" of HKEY_CURRENT_USER and
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (where X.Y is the Python version).

* Path configuration output fields:

  * "PyConfig.base_exec_prefix"

  * "PyConfig.base_executable"

  * "PyConfig.base_prefix"

  * "PyConfig.exec_prefix"

  * "PyConfig.executable"

  * "PyConfig.module_search_paths_set", "PyConfig.module_search_paths"

  * "PyConfig.prefix"

If at least one "output field" is not set, Python calculates the path
configuration to fill unset fields. If "module_search_paths_set" is
equal to "0", "module_search_paths" is overridden and
"module_search_paths_set" is set to "1".

It is possible to completely ignore the function calculating the
default path configuration by setting explicitly all path
configuration output fields listed above. A string is considered as
set even if it is non-empty. "module_search_paths" is considered as
set if "module_search_paths_set" is set to "1". In this case,
"module_search_paths" will be used without modification.

Set "pathconfig_warnings" to "0" to suppress warnings when calculating
the path configuration (Unix only, Windows does not log any warning).

If "base_prefix" or "base_exec_prefix" fields are not set, they
inherit their value from "prefix" and "exec_prefix" respectively.

"Py_RunMain()" and "Py_Main()" modify "sys.path":

* If "run_filename" is set and is a directory which contains a
  "__main__.py" script, prepend "run_filename" to "sys.path".

* If "isolated" is zero:

  * If "run_module" is set, prepend the current directory to
    "sys.path". Do nothing if the current directory cannot be read.

  * If "run_filename" is set, prepend the directory of the filename to
    "sys.path".

  * Otherwise, prepend an empty string to "sys.path".

If "site_import" is non-zero, "sys.path" can be modified by the "site"
module. If "user_site_directory" is non-zero and the user's site-
package directory exists, the "site" module appends the user's site-
package directory to "sys.path".

The following configuration files are used by the path configuration:

* "pyvenv.cfg"

* "._pth" file (ex: "python._pth")

* "pybuilddir.txt" (Unix only)

If a "._pth" file is present:

* Set "isolated" to "1".

* Set "use_environment" to "0".

* Set "site_import" to "0".

* Set "safe_path" to "1".

If "home" is not set and a "pyvenv.cfg" file is present in the same
directory as "executable", or its parent, "prefix" and "exec_prefix"
are set that location. When this happens, "base_prefix" and
"base_exec_prefix" still keep their value, pointing to the base
installation. See Virtual Environments for more information.

The "__PYVENV_LAUNCHER__" environment variable is used to set
"PyConfig.base_executable".

3.14 sürümünde değişti: "prefix", and "exec_prefix", are now set to
the "pyvenv.cfg" directory. This was previously done by "site",
therefore affected by "-S".


Py_GetArgcArgv()
================

void Py_GetArgcArgv(int *argc, wchar_t ***argv)

   Get the original command line arguments, before Python modified
   them.

   See also "PyConfig.orig_argv" member.


Delaying main module execution
==============================

In some embedding use cases, it may be desirable to separate
interpreter initialization from the execution of the main module.

This separation can be achieved by setting "PyConfig.run_command" to
the empty string during initialization (to prevent the interpreter
from dropping into the interactive prompt), and then subsequently
executing the desired main module code using "__main__.__dict__" as
the global namespace.
