This instance of :ctype:`PyTypeObject` represents the Python bytearray type;
it is the same object as ``bytearray`` in the Python layer.
+Type check macros
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. cfunction:: int PyByteArray_Check(PyObject *o)
subtype of the bytearray type.
+Direct API functions
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyByteArray_FromObject(PyObject *o)
Return a new bytearray object from any object, *o*, that implements the
failure, *NULL* is returned.
-.. cfunction:: Py_ssize_t PyByteArray_Size(PyObject *bytearray)
+.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyByteArray_Concat(PyObject *a, PyObject *b)
- Return the size of *bytearray* after checking for a *NULL* pointer.
+ Concat bytearrays *a* and *b* and return a new bytearray with the result.
-.. cfunction:: Py_ssize_t PyByteArray_GET_SIZE(PyObject *bytearray)
+.. cfunction:: Py_ssize_t PyByteArray_Size(PyObject *bytearray)
- Macro version of :cfunc:`PyByteArray_Size` that doesn't do pointer checking.
+ Return the size of *bytearray* after checking for a *NULL* pointer.
.. cfunction:: char* PyByteArray_AsString(PyObject *bytearray)
*NULL* pointer.
-.. cfunction:: char* PyByteArray_AS_STRING(PyObject *bytearray)
+.. cfunction:: int PyByteArray_Resize(PyObject *bytearray, Py_ssize_t len)
- Macro version of :cfunc:`PyByteArray_AsString` that doesn't check pointers.
+ Resize the internal buffer of *bytearray* to *len*.
+Macros
+^^^^^^
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyByteArray_Concat(PyObject *a, PyObject *b)
+These macros trade safety for speed and they don't check pointers.
- Concat bytearrays *a* and *b* and return a new bytearray with the result.
+.. cfunction:: char* PyByteArray_AS_STRING(PyObject *bytearray)
+ Macro version of :cfunc:`PyByteArray_AsString`.
-.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyByteArray_Resize(PyObject *bytearray, Py_ssize_t len)
- Resize the internal buffer of *bytearray* to *len*.
+.. cfunction:: Py_ssize_t PyByteArray_GET_SIZE(PyObject *bytearray)
+
+ Macro version of :cfunc:`PyByteArray_Size`.
