<h1>PyImport_BeImageID()</h1>
<dl compact>
<dt><strong>NOTE:</strong><dt>
<dd>This is documentation for the BeOS-specific
<code>PyImport_BeImageID()</code> function defined in
<tt>Python/importdl.c</tt>; it should be merged with the
<cite>Importing Modules</cite> section of the <cite>Python/C API</cite>
reference (or it should be the first member of a BeOS-specific
document in the <tt>BeOS</tt> directory).</dd>

<dl compact
<dt><code>image_id <b>PyImport_BeImageID</b>( char *<i>name</i> )</code></dt>
<dd>Return the BeOS image ID (see the
<a href="file:///boot/beos/documentation/Be%20Book/The%20Kernel%20Kit/Images.html">Images</a>
section in the
<a href="file:///boot/beos/documentation/Be%20Book/The%20Kernel%20Kit/index.html">Kernel
Kit</a>) for the module object corresponding to a module <i>name</i>.
If the specified module is not dynamically loaded,
<code>PyImport_BeImageID()</code> will return <code>B_ERROR</code>,
otherwise it will return a valid <code>image_id</code>.
<p>Using <code>PyImport_BeImageID()</code> outside of a BeOS-specific
module is probably a very bad idea.</p></dd>
