Method: RubyPython::Conversion.rtopObject

Defined in:
lib/rubypython/conversion.rb

.rtopObject(rObj, is_key = false) ⇒ Object

This will attempt to convert a Ruby object to an equivalent Python native type. Returns an FFI::Pointer to a Python object (the appropriate Py…Object C structure). If the conversion is unsuccessful, will raise UnsupportedConversion.

rObj

A native Ruby object.

is_key

Set to true if the provided Ruby object will be used as a key in a Python dict. (This primarily matters for Array conversion.)
