I cannot see how I implement decode() for bytes objects using the C API for PyCXX library,

I'd assuming that I should find a PyBytesDecode function but cannot find it in beta 2. What is the preferred way to do this? PyObjectCallMethod(bytesobj, "decode", "") PyUnicodeFromEncodedObject takes an encoding argument. There is also PyCodecDecode() but it does not seem to be documented, nor is any function declared in codecs.h. Is it part of the public API?

Yes, of course. I guess I never got around to writing docs for it at the time.

This should basically just be a matter of converting the header file codecs.h into ReST. The APIs are all documented in that header file.
