The available start symbols are <tt class="xref py py-const docutils literal"><span class="pre">Py_eval_input</span></tt>, <tt class="xref py py-const docutils literal"><span class="pre">Py_file_input</span></tt>, and <tt class="xref py py-const docutils literal"><span class="pre">Py_single_input</span></tt>. These are described following the functions which accept them as parameters.</p> <p>Note also that several of these functions take <tt class="xref c c-type docutils literal"><span class="pre">FILE*</span></tt> parameters. One particular issue which needs to be handled carefully is that the <tt class="xref c c-type docutils literal"><span class="pre">FILE</span></tt> structure for different C libraries can be different and incompatible. Under Windows (at least), it is possible for dynamically linked extensions to actually use different libraries, so care should be taken that <tt class="xref c c-type docutils literal"><span class="pre">FILE*</span></tt> parameters are only passed to these functions if it is certain that they were created by the same library that the Python runtime is using.</p> <dl class="function"> <dt id="Py_Main"> int <tt class="descname">Py_Main</tt><big>(</big>int<em> argc</em>, char<em> **argv</em><big>)</big><a class="headerlink" href="#Py_Main" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt> <dd><p>The main program for the standard interpreter.
