PyBindGen is (surprise!) a python bindings generator. The main features are:
|
||||
|
||||
* Is written in clean, PEP 8 compliant, and pylint checked, Python code;
|
||||
|
||||
* Generates clean C or C++ code, nearly as readable as code written
|
||||
manually by a developer;
|
||||
|
||||
* Generated code is self contained and does not require any external
|
||||
libraries or macros; after generating the python module only python
|
||||
header files are required, nothing else.
|
||||
|
||||
* Does not require Boost.Python (no C++ template magic, also works in C);
|
||||
|
||||
* The interface for code generation is a simple Python API, not some
|
||||
obscure interface definition language. Additionally PyBindGen can
|
||||
use parse header files with gccxml, if gccxml and pygccxml are
|
||||
parse header files with gccxml, if gccxml and pygccxml are
|
||||
installed in the system.
|
||||
|
||||
* Can be easily extended with new type handlers;
|
||||
|
||||
* Type handlers can allocate memory and register cleanup code to free;
|
||||
|
||||
* Supports in, out, and inout parameters (e.g. with pointers or C++ references);
|
||||
|
||||
* Supports multiple return values (e.g. due to out/inout parameters);
|
||||
|
||||
* Supports wrapping of simple C++ classes;
|
||||
|
||||
* Supports virtual methods in classes;
|
||||
|
||||
* Supports reference counted classes and smart pointers;
|
||||
|
||||
Notable features NOT implemented:
|
||||
* Multiple inheritance
