You should cast self to a requestobject* :
((requestobject*)self)->session
Anyway, I'm currently rewriting the whole request_tp_traverse /
request_tp_clear / request_tp_clear functions like this :
static void request_tp_dealloc(requestobject *self)
{
// de-register the object from the GC
// before its deallocation, to prevent the
// GC to run on a partially de-allocated object
PyObject_GC_UnTrack(self);
request_tp_clear(self);
PyObject_GC_Del(self);
}
/**
** request_tp_traverse
**
* Traversal of the request object
*/
static int request_tp_traverse(requestobject* self, visitproc visit,
void *arg) {
int result;
if(self->dict) {result = visit(self->dict,arg); if(result) return result;}
if(self->connection) {result = visit(self->connection,arg);
if(result) return result;}
if(self->server) {result = visit(self->server,arg); if(result)
return result;}
if(self->next) {result = visit(self->next,arg); if(result) return result;}
if(self->prev) {result = visit(self->prev,arg); if(result) return result;}
if(self->main) {result = visit(self->main,arg); if(result) return result;}
if(self->headers_in) {result = visit(self->headers_in,arg);
if(result) return result;}
if(self->headers_out) {result = visit(self->headers_out,arg);
if(result) return result;}
if(self->err_headers_out) {result =
visit(self->err_headers_out,arg); if(result) return result;}
if(self->subprocess_env) {result =
visit(self->subprocess_env,arg); if(result) return result;}
if(self->notes) {result = visit(self->notes,arg); if(result) return result;}
if(self->phase) {result = visit(self->phase,arg); if(result) return result;}
// no need to Py_DECREF(dict) since the reference is borrowed
return 0;
}
static int request_tp_clear(requestobject *self)
{
PyObject* tmp;
tmp=self->dict; self->dict=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
tmp=self->connection; self->connection=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
tmp=self->server; self->server=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
tmp=self->next; self->next=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
tmp=self->prev; self->prev=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
tmp=self->main; self->main=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);

tmp=self->notes; self->notes=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
tmp=self->phase; self->phase=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
tmp=self->hlo; self->hlo=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
tmp=self->dict; self->dict=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
tmp=self->dict; self->dict=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
tmp=self->dict; self->dict=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
tmp=self->dict; self->dict=NULL; Py_XDECREF(tmp);
return 0;
}
As you can guess from the source code, we'll have to add some code for
the session member when you'll integrate your code in subversion.
