"The Application Programmer's Interface to Python gives C and C++ programmers "
"access to the Python interpreter at a variety of levels.  The API is equally "
"usable from C++, but for brevity it is generally referred to as the Python/C "
"API.  There are two fundamentally different reasons for using the Python/C "
"API. The first reason is to write *extension modules* for specific purposes; "
"these are C modules that extend the Python interpreter.  This is probably "
"the most common use.  The second reason is to use Python as a component in a "
"larger application; this technique is generally referred to as :dfn:"
"`embedding` Python in an application."

"Writing an extension module is a relatively well-understood process, where a "

"less straightforward than writing an extension."

"The reference count is important because today's computers have a  finite "

"places there are that have a reference to an object.  Such a  place could be "
"another object, or a global (or static) C variable, or  a local variable in "
"some C function. When an object's reference count  becomes zero, the object "
"is deallocated.  If it contains references to  other objects, their "
"reference count is decremented. Those other  objects may be deallocated in "
"turn, if this decrement makes their reference count become zero, and so on.  "
"(There's an obvious problem  with objects that reference each other here; "
"for now, the solution is  \"don't do that.\")"
msgstr ""

#: c-api/intro.rst:270
msgid ""
"Reference counts are always manipulated explicitly.  The normal way is  to "
"use the macro :c:func:`Py_INCREF` to increment an object's reference count "
"by one, and :c:func:`Py_DECREF` to decrement it by   one.  The :c:func:"
"`Py_DECREF` macro is considerably more complex than the incref one, since it "
"must check whether the reference count becomes zero and then cause the "
"object's deallocator to be called. The deallocator is a function pointer "
"contained in the object's type structure.  The type-specific deallocator "
"takes care of decrementing the reference counts for other objects contained "
"in the object if this is a compound object type, such as a list, as well as "
"performing any additional finalization that's needed.  There's no chance "
"that the reference count can overflow; at least as many bits are used to "
"hold the reference count as there are distinct memory locations in virtual "
"memory (assuming ``sizeof(Py_ssize_t) >= sizeof(void*)``). Thus, the "
"reference count increment is a simple operation."
msgstr ""

#: c-api/intro.rst:284
msgid ""
"It is not necessary to increment an object's reference count for every  "
"local variable that contains a pointer to an object.  In theory, the  "
"object's reference count goes up by one when the variable is made to  point "
"to it and it goes down by one when the variable goes out of  scope.  "
"However, these two cancel each other out, so at the end the  reference count "
"hasn't changed.  The only real reason to use the  reference count is to "
"prevent the object from being deallocated as  long as our variable is "
"pointing to it.  If we know that there is at  least one other reference to "
"the object that lives at least as long as our variable, there is no need to "
"increment the reference count  temporarily. An important situation where "
"this arises is in objects  that are passed as arguments to C functions in an "
"extension module  that are called from Python; the call mechanism guarantees "
"to hold a  reference to every argument for the duration of the call."
msgstr ""

#: c-api/intro.rst:298
msgid ""
"However, a common pitfall is to extract an object from a list and hold on to "
"it for a while without incrementing its reference count. Some other "
"operation might conceivably remove the object from the list, decrementing "
"its reference count and possibly deallocating it. The real danger is that "
"innocent-looking operations may invoke arbitrary Python code which could do "
"this; there is a code path which allows control to flow back to the user "
"from a :c:func:`Py_DECREF`, so almost any operation is potentially dangerous."
msgstr ""

#: c-api/intro.rst:306
msgid ""
"A safe approach is to always use the generic operations (functions  whose "
"name begins with ``PyObject_``, ``PyNumber_``, ``PySequence_`` or "
"``PyMapping_``). These operations always increment the reference count of "
"the object they return. This leaves the caller with the responsibility to "
"call :c:func:`Py_DECREF` when they are done with the result; this soon "

#: c-api/intro.rst:318
msgid ""
"The reference count behavior of functions in the Python/C API is best  "
"explained in terms of *ownership of references*.  Ownership pertains to "
"references, never to objects (objects are not owned: they are always "
"shared).  \"Owning a reference\" means being responsible for calling "
"Py_DECREF on it when the reference is no longer needed.  Ownership can also "
"be transferred, meaning that the code that receives ownership of the "
"reference then becomes responsible for eventually decref'ing it by calling :"
"c:func:`Py_DECREF` or :c:func:`Py_XDECREF` when it's no longer needed---or "
"passing on this responsibility (usually to its caller). When a function "
"passes ownership of a reference on to its caller, the caller is said to "
"receive a *new* reference.  When no ownership is transferred, the caller is "
"said to *borrow* the reference. Nothing needs to be done for a borrowed "
"reference."

msgid ""
"Conversely, when a calling function passes in a reference to an  object, "
"there are two possibilities: the function *steals* a  reference to the "
"object, or it does not.  *Stealing a reference* means that when you pass a "

"functions were designed to steal a reference because of a common idiom for "
"populating a tuple or list with newly created objects; for example, the code "

"The situation is slightly different for function return values.   While "
