/*
|
|
Functions and macros for modules that implement new object types.
|
|
You must first include "object.h".
|
|
|
|
- PyObject_New(type, typeobj) allocates memory for a new object of
|
|
the given type; here '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 actually
|
|
determined by the tp_basicsize field of the type object.
|
|
|
|
- PyObject_NewVar(type, typeobj, n) is similar but allocates a
|
|
variable-size object with n extra items. The size is computed as
|
|
tp_basicsize plus n * tp_itemsize. This fills in the ob_size field
|
|
as well.
|
|
|
|
- PyObject_Del(op) releases the memory allocated for an object.
|
|
|
|
- PyObject_Init(op, typeobj) and PyObject_InitVar(op, typeobj, n) are
|
|
similar to PyObject_{New, NewVar} except that they don't allocate
|
|
the memory needed for an object. Instead of the 'type' parameter,
|
|
they accept the pointer of a new object (allocated by an arbitrary
|
|
allocator) and initialize its object header fields.
|
|
|
|
Note that objects created with PyObject_{New, NewVar} are allocated
|
|
within the Python heap by an object allocator, the latter being
|
|
implemented (by default) on top of the Python raw memory
|
|
allocator. This ensures that Python keeps control on the user's
|
|
objects regarding their memory management; for instance, they may be
|
|
subject to automatic garbage collection.
|
|
|
|
In case a specific form of memory management is needed, implying that
|
|
the objects would not reside in the Python heap (for example standard
|
|
malloc heap(s) are mandatory, use of shared memory, 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 very limited
|
|
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, it is
|
|
recommended to use PyObject_{New, NewVar, Del}. */

/*

* Core object memory allocator
|

* ============================

*/
|
|
|
|
/* The purpose of the object allocator is to make the distinction
|
|
between "object memory" and the rest within the Python heap.
|
|
|
|
Object memory is the one allocated by PyObject_{New, NewVar}, i.e.
|
|
the one that holds the object's representation defined by its C
|
|
type structure, *excluding* any object-specific memory buffers that
|
|
might be referenced by the structure (for type structures that have
|
|
pointer fields). By default, the object memory allocator is
|
|
implemented on top of the raw memory allocator.
|
|
|
|
The PyCore_* macros can be defined to make the interpreter use a
|
|
custom object memory allocator. They are reserved for internal
|
|
memory management purposes exclusively. Both the core and extension
|
|
modules should use the PyObject_* API. */

PyObject_{New, NewVar} for objects that are supposed to belong to

the object is initialized with PyObject_{Init, InitVar}. Do *not*
