Buffer Protocol

.. cfunction:: int PyObject_AsCharBuffer(PyObject *obj, const char **buffer, Py_ssize_t *buffer_len)
|
|
|
|
Returns a pointer to a read-only memory location usable as character-based
|
|
input. The *obj* argument must support the single-segment character buffer
|
|
interface. On success, returns ``0``, sets *buffer* to the memory location and
|
|
*buffer_len* to the buffer length. Returns ``-1`` and sets a :exc:`TypeError`
|
|
on error.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. cfunction:: int PyObject_AsReadBuffer(PyObject *obj, const void **buffer, Py_ssize_t *buffer_len)
|
|
|
|
Returns a pointer to a read-only memory location containing arbitrary data. The
|
|
*obj* argument must support the single-segment readable buffer interface. On
|
|
success, returns ``0``, sets *buffer* to the memory location and *buffer_len* to
|
|
the buffer length. Returns ``-1`` and sets a :exc:`TypeError` on error.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. cfunction:: int PyObject_CheckReadBuffer(PyObject *o)
|
|
|
|
Returns ``1`` if *o* supports the single-segment readable buffer interface.
|
|
Otherwise returns ``0``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. cfunction:: int PyObject_AsWriteBuffer(PyObject *obj, void **buffer, Py_ssize_t *buffer_len)
|
|
|
|
Returns a pointer to a writable memory location. The *obj* argument must
|
|
support the single-segment, character buffer interface. On success, returns
|
|
``0``, sets *buffer* to the memory location and *buffer_len* to the buffer
|
|
length. Returns ``-1`` and sets a :exc:`TypeError` on error.
