If *o* can be converted to a Python int or long but the attempt to + convert to a Py_ssize_t value would raise an :exc:`OverflowError`, then the + *exc* argument is the type of exception that will be raised (usually + :exc:`IndexError` or :exc:`OverflowError`). If *exc* is *NULL*, then the + exception is cleared and the value is clipped to *PY_SSIZE_T_MIN* for a negative + integer or *PY_SSIZE_T_MAX* for a positive integer. + + .. versionadded:: 2.5 + + +.. cfunction:: int PyIndex_Check(PyObject *o) + + Returns True if *o* is an index integer (has the nb_index slot of the + tp_as_number structure filled in). + + .. versionadded:: 2.5 |
