      5 Mapping Protocol

      9 .. c:function:: int PyMapping_Check(PyObject *o)
     10 
     11    Return ``1`` if the object provides mapping protocol, and ``0`` otherwise.  This
     12    function always succeeds.
     13 
     14 
     15 .. c:function:: Py_ssize_t PyMapping_Size(PyObject *o)
     16                Py_ssize_t PyMapping_Length(PyObject *o)
     17 
     18    .. index:: builtin: len
     19 
     20    Returns the number of keys in object *o* on success, and ``-1`` on failure.  For
     21    objects that do not provide mapping protocol, this is equivalent to the Python
     22    expression ``len(o)``.
     23 
     24 
     25 .. c:function:: int PyMapping_DelItemString(PyObject *o, const char *key)
     26 
     27    Remove the mapping for object *key* from the object *o*. Return ``-1`` on
     28    failure.  This is equivalent to the Python statement ``del o[key]``.
     29 
     30 
     31 .. c:function:: int PyMapping_DelItem(PyObject *o, PyObject *key)
     32 
     33    Remove the mapping for object *key* from the object *o*. Return ``-1`` on
     34    failure.  This is equivalent to the Python statement ``del o[key]``.
     35 
     36 
     37 .. c:function:: int PyMapping_HasKeyString(PyObject *o, const char *key)
     38 
     39    On success, return ``1`` if the mapping object has the key *key* and ``0``
     40    otherwise.  This is equivalent to the Python expression ``key in o``.
     41    This function always succeeds.
     42 
     43 
     44 .. c:function:: int PyMapping_HasKey(PyObject *o, PyObject *key)
     45 
     46    Return ``1`` if the mapping object has the key *key* and ``0`` otherwise.  This
     47    is equivalent to the Python expression ``key in o``.  This function always
     48    succeeds.
     49 
     50 
     51 .. c:function:: PyObject* PyMapping_Keys(PyObject *o)
     52 
     53    On success, return a list or tuple of the keys in object *o*.  On failure,
     54    return *NULL*.
     55 
     56 
     57 .. c:function:: PyObject* PyMapping_Values(PyObject *o)
     58 
     59    On success, return a list or tuple of the values in object *o*.  On failure,
     60    return *NULL*.
     61 
     62 
     63 .. c:function:: PyObject* PyMapping_Items(PyObject *o)
     64 
     65    On success, return a list or tuple of the items in object *o*, where each item
     66    is a tuple containing a key-value pair.  On failure, return *NULL*.
     67 
     68 
     69 .. c:function:: PyObject* PyMapping_GetItemString(PyObject *o, const char *key)
     70 
     71    Return element of *o* corresponding to the object *key* or *NULL* on failure.
     72    This is the equivalent of the Python expression ``o[key]``.
     73 
     74 
     75 .. c:function:: int PyMapping_SetItemString(PyObject *o, const char *key, PyObject *v)
     76 
     77    Map the object *key* to the value *v* in object *o*. Returns ``-1`` on failure.
     78    This is the equivalent of the Python statement ``o[key] = v``.
