PyTypeObject

PyObject* PyType_Type
This is the type object for type objects; it is the same object as types.TypeType in the Python layer.

int PyType_Check (PyObject *o)
Returns true is the object o is a type object.

int PyType_HasFeature (PyObject *o, int feature)
Returns true if the type object o sets the feature feature. Type features are denoted by single bit flags. The only defined feature flag is Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_GETCHARBUFFER, described in section 10.5.
