/* BEWARE: | |
Each interface exports both functions and macros. Extension modules should | |
use the functions, to ensure binary compatibility across Python versions. | |
Because the Python implementation is free to change internal details, and | |
the macros may (or may not) expose details for speed, if you do use the | |
macros you must recompile your extensions with each Python release. | |
Never mix calls to PyObject_ memory functions with calls to the platform | |
malloc/realloc/ calloc/free, or with calls to PyMem_. | |

/* | |
Functions and macros for modules that implement new object types. | |
- PyObject_New(type, typeobj) allocates memory for a new object of the given | |
type, and initializes part of it. 'type' must be the C structure type used | |
to represent the object, and 'typeobj' the address of the corresponding | |
type object. Reference count and type pointer are filled in; the rest of | |
the bytes of the object are *undefined*! The resulting expression type is | |
'type *'. The size of the object is determined by the tp_basicsize field | |
of the type object. | |
- PyObject_NewVar(type, typeobj, n) is similar but allocates a variable-size | |
object with room for n items. In addition to the refcount and type pointer | |
fields, this also fills in the ob_size field. | |
- PyObject_Free(op) releases the memory allocated for an object. It does not | |
run a destructor -- it only frees the memory. PyObject_Free is identical. | |
- PyObject_Init(op, typeobj) and PyObject_InitVar(op, typeobj, n) don't | |
allocate memory. Instead of a 'type' parameter, they take a pointer to a | |
new object (allocated by an arbitrary allocator), and initialize its object | |
header fields. | |
Note that objects created with PyObject_{New, NewVar} are allocated using the | |
specialized Python allocator (implemented in obmalloc.c), if WITH_PYMALLOC is | |
enabled. In addition, a special debugging allocator is used if Py_DEBUG | |
macro is also defined. | |
In case a specific form of memory management is needed (for example, if you | |
must use the platform malloc heap(s), or shared memory, or C++ local storage or | |
operator new), you must first allocate the object with your custom allocator, | |
then pass its pointer to PyObject_{Init, InitVar} for filling in its Python- | |
specific fields: reference count, type pointer, possibly others. You should | |
be aware that Python has no control over these objects because they don't | |
cooperate with the Python memory manager. Such objects may not be eligible | |
for automatic garbage collection and you have to make sure that they are | |
released accordingly whenever their destructor gets called (cf. the specific | |
form of memory management you're using). | |
Unless you have specific memory management requirements, use | |
PyObject_{New, NewVar, Del}. | |

/* | |
* Raw object memory interface | |
* =========================== | |
*/ | |
/* Functions to call the same malloc/realloc/free as used by Python's | |
object allocator. If WITH_PYMALLOC is enabled, these may differ from | |
the platform malloc/realloc/free. The Python object allocator is | |
designed for fast, cache-conscious allocation of many "small" objects, | |
and with low hidden memory overhead. | |
PyObject_Malloc(0) returns a unique non-NULL pointer if possible. | |
PyObject_Realloc(NULL, n) acts like PyObject_Malloc(n). | |
PyObject_Realloc(p != NULL, 0) does not return NULL, or free the memory | |
at p. | |
Returned pointers must be checked for NULL explicitly; no action is | |
performed on failure other than to return NULL (no warning it printed, no | |
exception is set, etc). | |
For allocating objects, use PyObject_{New, NewVar} instead whenever | |
possible. The PyObject_{Malloc, Realloc, Free} family is exposed | |
so that you can exploit Python's small-block allocator for non-object | |
uses. If you must use these routines to allocate object memory, make sure | |
the object gets initialized via PyObject_{Init, InitVar} after obtaining | |
the raw memory. | |
