/* String object interface */
/*
Type PyStringObject represents a character string. An extra zero byte is
1990-10-14 09:07:46 -03:00
reserved at the end to ensure it is zero-terminated, but a size is
present so strings with null bytes in them can be represented. This
is an immutable object type.
There are functions to create new string objects, to test
an object for string-ness, and to get the
string value. The latter function returns a null pointer
if the object is not of the proper type.
There is a variant that takes an explicit size as well as a
variant that assumes a zero-terminated string. Note that none of the
functions should be applied to nil objects.
*/
/* Two speedup hacks. Caching the hash saves recalculation of a
string's hash value. Interning strings (which requires hash
caching) tries to ensure that only one string object with a given
value exists, so equality tests are one pointer comparison.
Together, these can speed the interpreter up by as much as 20%.
Each costs the size of a long or pointer per string object. In
addition, interned strings live until the end of times. If you are
concerned about memory footprint, simply comment the #define out
here (and rebuild everything!). */
