#34478 — empty object from C

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

Hello,

>From C, I'd like to call a Python function that takes an object and sets
some attributes on it.
Lets say this is the function...

def foo(msg):
    msg.bar = 123
    msg.spam = 'eggs'

How do I create an empty object in C?
In Python I would do something like this...

class Msg(object):
    pass

... and then instantiate an instance, and call the function.

msg = Msg()
foo(msg)



I know how to create an empty dictionary and I get get by with that, but
I'd like to create an object.

Thanks,
~Eric
