Function Objects
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
.. index:: pair: object; function
|
|
|
|
There are a few functions specific to Python functions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:type:: PyFunctionObject
|
|
|
|
The C structure used for functions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:var:: PyTypeObject PyFunction_Type
|
|
|
|
.. index:: single: MethodType (in module types)
|
|
|
|
This is an instance of :c:type:`PyTypeObject` and represents the Python function
|
|
type. It is exposed to Python programmers as ``types.FunctionType``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int PyFunction_Check(PyObject *o)
|
|
|
|
Return true if *o* is a function object (has type :c:data:`PyFunction_Type`).
|
|
The parameter must not be ``NULL``. This function always succeeds.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: PyObject* PyFunction_New(PyObject *code, PyObject *globals)
|
|
|
|
Return a new function object associated with the code object *code*. *globals*
|
|
must be a dictionary with the global variables accessible to the function.
|
|
|
|
The function's docstring and name are retrieved from the code object. *__module__*
|
|
is retrieved from *globals*. The argument defaults, annotations and closure are
|
|
set to ``NULL``. *__qualname__* is set to the same value as the code object's
|
|
``co_qualname`` field.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: PyObject* PyFunction_NewWithQualName(PyObject *code, PyObject *globals, PyObject *qualname)
|
|
|
|
As :c:func:`PyFunction_New`, but also allows setting the function object's
|
|
``__qualname__`` attribute. *qualname* should be a unicode object or ``NULL``;
|
|
if ``NULL``, the ``__qualname__`` attribute is set to the same value as the
|
|
code object's ``co_qualname`` field.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.3
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: PyObject* PyFunction_GetCode(PyObject *op)
|
|
|
|
Return the code object associated with the function object *op*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: PyObject* PyFunction_GetGlobals(PyObject *op)
|
|
|
|
Return the globals dictionary associated with the function object *op*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: PyObject* PyFunction_GetModule(PyObject *op)
|
|
|
|
Return a :term:`borrowed reference` to the *__module__* attribute of the
|
|
function object *op*. It can be *NULL*.
|
|
|
|
This is normally a string containing the module name, but can be set to any
|
|
other object by Python code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: PyObject* PyFunction_GetDefaults(PyObject *op)
|
|
|
|
Return the argument default values of the function object *op*. This can be a
|
|
tuple of arguments or ``NULL``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int PyFunction_SetDefaults(PyObject *op, PyObject *defaults)
|
|
|
|
Set the argument default values for the function object *op*. *defaults* must be
|
|
``Py_None`` or a tuple.
|
|
|
|
Raises :exc:`SystemError` and returns ``-1`` on failure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: void PyFunction_SetVectorcall(PyFunctionObject *func, vectorcallfunc vectorcall)
|
|
|
|
Set the vectorcall field of a given function object *func*.
|
|
|
|
Warning: extensions using this API must preserve the behavior
|
|
of the unaltered (default) vectorcall function!
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.12
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: PyObject* PyFunction_GetClosure(PyObject *op)
|
|
|
|
Return the closure associated with the function object *op*. This can be ``NULL``
|
|
or a tuple of cell objects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int PyFunction_SetClosure(PyObject *op, PyObject *closure)
|
|
|
|
Set the closure associated with the function object *op*. *closure* must be
|
|
``Py_None`` or a tuple of cell objects.
|
|
|
|
Raises :exc:`SystemError` and returns ``-1`` on failure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: PyObject *PyFunction_GetAnnotations(PyObject *op)
|
|
|
|
Return the annotations of the function object *op*. This can be a
|
|
mutable dictionary or ``NULL``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int PyFunction_SetAnnotations(PyObject *op, PyObject *annotations)
|
|
|
|
Set the annotations for the function object *op*. *annotations*
|
|
must be a dictionary or ``Py_None``.
|
|
|
|
Raises :exc:`SystemError` and returns ``-1`` on failure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int PyFunction_AddWatcher(PyFunction_WatchCallback callback)
|
|
|
|
Register *callback* as a function watcher for the current interpreter.
|
|
Return an ID which may be passed to :c:func:`PyFunction_ClearWatcher`.
|
|
In case of error (e.g. no more watcher IDs available),
|
|
return ``-1`` and set an exception.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.12
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:function:: int PyFunction_ClearWatcher(int watcher_id)
|
|
|
|
Clear watcher identified by *watcher_id* previously returned from
|
|
:c:func:`PyFunction_AddWatcher` for the current interpreter.
|
|
Return ``0`` on success, or ``-1`` and set an exception on error
|
|
(e.g. if the given *watcher_id* was never registered.)
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.12
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:type:: PyFunction_WatchEvent
|
|
|
|
Enumeration of possible function watcher events:
|
|
- ``PyFunction_EVENT_CREATE``
|
|
- ``PyFunction_EVENT_DESTROY``
|
|
- ``PyFunction_EVENT_MODIFY_CODE``
|
|
- ``PyFunction_EVENT_MODIFY_DEFAULTS``
|
|
- ``PyFunction_EVENT_MODIFY_KWDEFAULTS``
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.12
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. c:type:: int (*PyFunction_WatchCallback)(PyFunction_WatchEvent event, PyFunctionObject *func, PyObject *new_value)
|
|
|
|
Type of a function watcher callback function.
|
|
|
|
If *event* is ``PyFunction_EVENT_CREATE`` or ``PyFunction_EVENT_DESTROY``
|
|
then *new_value* will be ``NULL``. Otherwise, *new_value* will hold a
|
|
:term:`borrowed reference` to the new value that is about to be stored in
|
|
*func* for the attribute that is being modified.
|
|
|
|
The callback may inspect but must not modify *func*; doing so could have
|
|
unpredictable effects, including infinite recursion.
|
|
|
|
If *event* is ``PyFunction_EVENT_CREATE``, then the callback is invoked
|
|
after `func` has been fully initialized. Otherwise, the callback is invoked
|
|
before the modification to *func* takes place, so the prior state of *func*
|
|
can be inspected. The runtime is permitted to optimize away the creation of
|
|
function objects when possible. In such cases no event will be emitted.
|
|
Although this creates the possibility of an observable difference of
|
|
runtime behavior depending on optimization decisions, it does not change
|
|
the semantics of the Python code being executed.
|
|
|
|
If *event* is ``PyFunction_EVENT_DESTROY``, Taking a reference in the
|
|
callback to the about-to-be-destroyed function will resurrect it, preventing
|
|
it from being freed at this time. When the resurrected object is destroyed
|
|
later, any watcher callbacks active at that time will be called again.
|
|
|
|
If the callback sets an exception, it must return ``-1``; this exception will
|
|
be printed as an unraisable exception using :c:func:`PyErr_WriteUnraisable`.
|
|
Otherwise it should return ``0``.
|
|
|
|
There may already be a pending exception set on entry to the callback. In
|
|
this case, the callback should return ``0`` with the same exception still
|
|
set. This means the callback may not call any other API that can set an
|
|
exception unless it saves and clears the exception state first, and restores
|
|
it before returning.
