Code Object Flags
217+
-----------------
218+
219+
Code objects contain a bit-field of flags, which can be retrieved as the
220+
:attr:`~codeobject.co_flags` Python attribute (for example using
221+
:c:func:`PyObject_GetAttrString`), and set using a *flags* argument to
222+
:c:func:`PyUnstable_Code_New` and similar functions.
223+
224+
Flags whose names start with ``CO_FUTURE_`` correspond to features normally
225+
selectable by :ref:`future statements <future>`. These flags can be used in
226+
:c:member:`PyCompilerFlags.cf_flags`.
227+
Note that many ``CO_FUTURE_`` flags are mandatory in current versions of
228+
Python, and setting them has no effect.
229+
230+
The following flags are available.
231+
For their meaning, see the linked documentation of their Python equivalents.
