[New-bugs-announce] [issue43739] Fixing the example code in Doc/extending/extending.rst to declare and initialize the pmodule variable to be of the right type.

[Shreyan Avigyan]

New submission from Shreyan Avigyan <shreyan.avigyan at gmail.com>:

In the example code of the Extending Python with C/C++ documentation the pmodule variable (that stores the return value of PyImport_ImportModule) was never declared. The PR(s) attached to this issue fixes it by declaring and initializing the pmodule variable. This issue is common in all the documentation versions. The first PR will be for documentation version 3.10. If it's accepted then I would request other developers to submit PRs for documentation 3.9, 3.8, 3.7 and 3.6 because I'm having a problem switching to those branches (I'm continuously facing the problem "HEAD detached" if I switch to those branches).

Thanking you

With Regards
