Sorry this is slightly offtopic, but I think it's important... According to recent experiments tracking down a memory leak, it seems that PyObject_CallFunction(func, "N", object) and PyObject_CallFunction(func, "O", object) are doing exactly the same thing. However, documentation says "The C arguments are described using a Py_BuildValue() style format string.". And of course Py_BuildValue consumes one object reference, according to the documentation and practice. However, PyObject_CallFunction does _not_ consume such an object reference, contrary to what I believed for years. God knows how many leaks I may have introduced in my bindings... :|
