py_cpp*
-
-
-
- The source code for py_cpp, including a MSVC demo project is available here.
-
-
Synopsis
-
- py_cpp is a system for quickly and easily interfacing C++ code with Python such that the Python interface is
- very similar to the C++ interface. It is designed to be minimally
- intrusive on your C++ design. In most cases, you should not have to alter
- your C++ classes in any way in order to use them with py_cpp. The system
- should simply “reflect” your C++ classes and functions into
- Python. The major features of py_cpp include support for:
-
-among others.
-
-
-Supported Platforms
-py_cpp has been tested in the following configurations:
-
-
-- Against Python 1.5.2 using the following compiler/library:
-
-
-
- - Against Python 2.0 using the following compiler/library combinations:
-
-
-
-Py_cpp requires the boost libraries, and is
- has been accepted for inclusion into the boost libraries pending “boostification“
- (completion of the documentation, change in some naming conventions and
- resolution of some namespace issues).

Credits
-
- - David Abrahams originated
- and wrote py_cpp.
-
-
- Ullrich Koethe
- had independently developed a similar system. When he discovered py_cpp,
- he generously contributed countless hours of coding and much insight into
- improving it. He is responsible for an early version of the support for function overloading and wrote the support for
- reflecting C++ inheritance
- relationships. He has helped to improve error-reporting from both
- Python and C++, and has designed an extremely easy-to-use way of
- exposing numeric operators, including
- a way to avoid explicit coercion by means of overloading.
-
-
- The members of the boost mailing list and the Python community supplied
- invaluable early feedback. In particular, Ron Clarke, Mark Evans, Anton
- Gluck, Ralf W. Grosse-Kunstleve, Prabhu Ramachandran, and Barry Scott took
- the brave step of trying to use py_cpp while it was still in early stages
- of development.
-
-
- The development of py_cpp wouldn't have been
- possible without the generous support of Dragon Systems/Lernout and
- Hauspie, Inc who supported its development as an open-source project.

- Questions should be directed to the boost mailing list.

Naming Contest
-
-
- Yes, I know py_cpp is a lousy name. Problem is, the best names my puny
- imagination can muster (IDLE and GRAIL) are taken, so I'm holding a
- naming contest. First prize? You get to pick the name<0.2wink> and
- you will be credited in the documentation. Names that have been suggested
- so far include:
-
- -
- Py++
-
-
- Python++
