http://docs.python.org/py3k/c-api/object.html PyObject_GetItem Return element [...] or NULL on failure. Found element => return its pointer. Found no element => return NULL (with no exception set). But it is unclear whether the function can also: Error happened => return NULL with an exception set. It affects multiple versions of the doc, did not check which all. |

I find it quite clear. "failure" not only means that no item was found, but also that the operation failed, i.e. raised an exception. In general, a NULL pointer returned from a function that returns PyObject* *always* means that there is an exception. There is no need to repeat that every time. |

OK, I am not used to Python, thanks. |
