Not all objects can be weakly referenced; those objects which do
include class instances and dictionaries. Extension types can easily
include class instances, functions written in Python (but not in C),
and methods (both bound and unbound). Extension types can easily
be made to support weak references; see section \ref{weakref-extension},
``Weak References in Extension Types,'' for more information.
\strong{Warning:}
The desired semantics of weak-reference proxy objects are not
completely clear; it is very difficult to create proxies which behave
exactly like the type of the referent. The details of these objects
are likely to change to some degree before the final release as
experience reports become available.

For an object to be weakly referencable, the extension must include a
\ctype{PyObject *} field in the instance structure for the use of the
weak reference mechanism; it will be initialized by Python's functions
for object creation. It must also set the \code{tp_weaklistoffset}
weak reference mechanism; it must be initialized to \NULL{} by the
object's constructor. It must also set the \member{tp_weaklistoffset}
field of the corresponding type object to the offset of the field.
For example, the instance type is defined with the following structure:
