| | | | | | | | release21-maint branch; I checked them in erroneously in revision 1.52.4.1 of this file; it looks like that entire revision was operator error. This reverts that checkin and closes SF bug #449613.

* Move the section on concrete numeric objects before the section onFred Drake2001-07-111-249/+249
| | | | | | | | | concrete sequence objects, since their API is simpler. This is in response to a comment in SF bug #440037. (Does this really belong in the bugfix release? Yes: this is a readability bug, and those are important in the documentation.)

| | | | | | polling objects. This closes SF bug #439823. Fixed a minor markup bug.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PyObject_InitVar(), PyObject_Del(), PyObject_NEW(), PyObject_NEW_VAR(), and PyObject_DEL(). Add notes to PyMem_Malloc() and PyMem_New() about the memory buffers not being initialized. This fixes SF bug #439012. Added explicit return value information for PyList_SetItem(), PyDict_SetItem(), and PyDict_SetItemString(). Corrected return type for PyList_SET_ITEM(). Fixed index entries in the descriptions of PyLong_AsLong() and PyLong_AsUnignedLong(). This fixes the API manual portion of SF bug #440037. Note that the headers properly declare everything as 'extern "C"' for C++ users. Document _Py_NoneStruct. Added links to the Extending & Embedding manual for PyArg_ParseTuple() and PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords(). Added note that PyArg_Parse() should not be used in new code. Fix up a few style nits -- avoid "e.g." and "i.e." -- these make translation more difficult, as well as reading the English more difficult for non-native speakers.
