From 3578b77312720061ef3e5a86e3db4f3c968edf56 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Marc-Andr=C3=A9=20Lemburg?= Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2000 21:08:08 +0000 Subject: Special case the "s#" PyArg_Parse() token for Unicode objects: "s#" will now return a pointer to the default encoded string data of the Unicode object instead of a pointer to the raw UTF-16 data. The latter is still available via PyObject_AsReadBuffer(). --- Doc/ext/ext.tex | 8 ++++---- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/Doc/ext/ext.tex b/Doc/ext/ext.tex index d54b78c..38215fa 100644 --- a/Doc/ext/ext.tex +++ b/Doc/ext/ext.tex @@ -692,10 +692,10 @@ raised. This variant on \samp{s} stores into two C variables, the first one a pointer to a character string, the second one its length. In this case the Python string may contain embedded null bytes. Unicode -objects and all other read buffer compatible objects pass back a -reference to the raw internal data representation. In case of Unicode -objects the pointer points to a null-terminated buffer of 16-bit -Py_UNICODE (UTF-16) data. +objects pass back a pointer to the default encoded string version of the +object if such a conversion is possible.
