Hi ,

Using in-basic python I interface function like var=pyCallFuntion(module,function)  how can I define if the var is a uniBASIC Var or a PYOBJECT ? 

Then, is there a methods from UNI BASIC to perform python str(var). 

Any help is welcome.

OK, I found a method to never crash or check type of PYOBJECT 
for sample, I build a GUID / UUID to use a free unique-key with uuid module -> uuid = PyCallFunction('uuid', 'uuid4')
ok but may I use the uuid variable in my basic ??
if it's a PYOBJECT I'll crash because Improper data type.
so check it
- load module builtins to call type() and str()
- pyBuiltins.type return a class <type> then we must use pyBuiltins.str() to use it in uniBASIC

sample BP UUID

uuid = PyCallFunction('uuid', 'uuid4')

py=PyImport('builtins') 
localvar = '' ;* a uniBASICvar to test his py.type
crt 'type localvar   <':PyCallMethod(py,'str',(PyCallMethod(py,'type',localvar))) :'>'
crt 'type pyBuiltins <':PyCallMethod(py,'str',(PyCallMethod(py,'type',py)))  :'>'
crt 'type uuid       <':PyCallMethod(py,'str',(PyCallMethod(py,'type',uuid))):'>'
crt 'uuid as str()   <':PyCallMethod(py,'str', uuid) :'>'

BASIC/RUN BP UUID

type uuid <<class 'uuid.UUID'>>
type var <<class 'str'>>
type pyBuiltins <<class 'module'>>
uuid as str() <bafb868e-f30c-42db-bd42-d29ef5d83d37>

by extension, we can enumarate the members/types of the pyobject

dir=PyCallMethod(py,'str',(PyCallMethod(py,'dir',uuid))) // return a array
convert ",'[] " to @AM in dir // convert the array to dynArray
loop remove v from dir setting eos 
     if v # '' then crt 'uuid.':v,PyCallMethod(py,'str',(PyCallMethod(py,'type',PyGetAttr(uuid,v))))   
while eos do repeat 

​output 

uuid.bytes_le       <class 'bytes'>        
uuid.clock_seq      <class 'int'>          
uuid.clock_seq_hi_variant     <class 'int'>
uuid.clock_seq_low  <class 'int'>          
uuid.fields         <class 'tuple'>        
uuid.hex  <class 'str'>                    
uuid.int  <class 'str'>                    
uuid.node <class 'int'>                    
uuid.time <class 'int'>                    
uuid.time_hi_version          <class 'int'>
uuid.time_low       <class 'int'>          
uuid.time_mid       <class 'int'>          
uuid.urn  <class 'str'>                    
uuid.variant        <class 'str'>          
uuid.version        <class 'int'>          
​

Certainely usefull to work with PYOBJECT.

enjoy.
