Byte Array Objects¶
-
PyTypeObject PyByteArray_Type¶
This instance of
PyTypeObject
represents the Python bytearray type; it is the same object asbytearray
in the Python layer.
Type check macros¶
Direct API functions¶
-
PyObject *PyByteArray_FromObject(PyObject *o)¶
- Return value: New reference.
Return a new bytearray object from any object, o, that implements the buffer protocol.
-
PyObject *PyByteArray_FromStringAndSize(const char *string, Py_ssize_t len)¶
- Return value: New reference.
Create a new bytearray object from string and its length, len. On failure,
NULL
is returned.
-
PyObject *PyByteArray_Concat(PyObject *a, PyObject *b)¶
- Return value: New reference.
Concat bytearrays a and b and return a new bytearray with the result.
-
Py_ssize_t PyByteArray_Size(PyObject *bytearray)¶
Return the size of bytearray after checking for a
NULL
pointer.
Macros¶
These macros trade safety for speed and they don’t check pointers.
-
char *PyByteArray_AS_STRING(PyObject *bytearray)¶
Macro version of
PyByteArray_AsString()
.
-
Py_ssize_t PyByteArray_GET_SIZE(PyObject *bytearray)¶
Macro version of
PyByteArray_Size()
.
