[kalmen 0]

Hi,

I am trying to get info. when do I need to use Py_XDecRef / Py_XIncRef ?

 

i have a delphi object and i defined as follow,

pyObj  := PyDelphiWrapper.Wrap(  myDatamodule.tblCustomer );

PythonModule1.SetVar( 'TCustomer' , pyObj );

Py_XDecRef(pyObj) ? or Py_XIncRed(pyObj) ? 

 

 

any advice is much appreciated , thanks.

It depends on who is responsible for the destruction of this object.  If you call Py_XDecRef then when the last reference in the python code is deleted python the destructor of the object will be called.
