On the C API, it tells how to make modules, functions, variables, and other things, but what about classes?
Like for example if you wanted to make a class with all of the methods having to use direct C Code which would then be converted to PyObject *'s for returning the information the C Code would normally return.
Not only that but also being able to create class instance variables using the C API as well.
Like for example here is an example class (As it would be if it was written in python):
class Example:
def __init__(self):
self.data = None # None being a place holder for now.
def somefunction(self):
# C Code here.
self.data = ret # return value for the C Code.
return self.data
Yes, there are better ways than writing the return data to the instance variable and returning it. That is just an example, I have classes that uses them for other things that does not return anything making the instance variables be the only way to get the data.
But yeah long story short I think creating classes with the C API should be documented if not already, or at least an example of doing one to be added as an guide for others wondering how to use the C API to make their own (non exception) classes. |
