+** This code was written by Larry Hastings,

+** It's designed to make it easy to switch
+** from CObject to Capsule objects without losing
+** backwards compatibility with prior versions
+** of CPython. You're encouraged to copy this code
+** (including this documentation) into your
+** Python C extension.
+**
+** To use:
+** * #define a name for the pointer you store in
+** the CObject. If you make the CObject available
+** as part of your module's API, this name should
+** be "modulename.attributename", and it should be
+** considered part of your API (so put it in your
+** header file).
+** * Specify a PYCAPSULE_INSTANTIATE_DESTRUCTOR(), in
+** every C file that creates these CObjects. This
+** is where you specify your object's destructor.
+** * Change all calls to CObject_FromVoidPtr()
+** and CObject_FromVoidPointerAndDesc() into
+** PYCAPSULE_NEW() calls.
+** * Change all calls to PyCObject_AsVoidPtr()
+** into PYCAPSULE_DEREFERENCE() calls.
+** * Change all calls to PyCObject_SetVoidPtr()
+** into PYCAPSULE_SET() calls.
+** * Change all calls to PyCObject_Import()
+** into PYCAPSULE_IMPORT() calls. Note that
+** the two arguments to PYCAPSULE_IMPORT()
+** should both be string constants; that is,
+** you should call
+** PYCAPSULE_IMPORT("modulename", "attributename"),
+** not PYCAPSULE_IMPORT(charstar1, charstar2).
