Embedding Python in C++

Hi
i'm a italian student.
I must create a virtual machine which call python script from Visual C++
program.
My teacher tell me use swig fror make this work.
I use Swig for import in Python class, object, variables of C++, but my
problem are when in C++ i must call script Python.
I find many article, but i don't find a working example.
Can you advise me how i call python script from C++?
Have you example which can you send me (in my email)?
(my script use only int, float, string and object, class).
Thanks.

Ciao,

I have some examples from my PyCon presentation here:

http://elmer.sourceforge.net/PyCon04/elmer_pycon04.html

...and here is the complete example code:

http://elmer.sourceforge.net/PyCon04/Elmer_PyCon04.tgz

I think the example code from example 1 may be most relevant. You
can also use Elmer (http://elmer.sourceforge.net) to generate a C
interface to your Python code (as shown in examples 2 & 3).

Buona fortuna!
Rick.

Hello,
I need to read newly generated uuid from Python
but I am not sure if
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Coo.../Recipe/163604

is the right code

Maybe there is already the library in Python 2.3

Maybe I can use the one generated with
uuidgen
under cygwin
but this would not be portable

In this last case I would like to know how can I capture the output of
uuidgen
so I can use it in my script

Thank you if you know the answer !

Cheers,
Marcello

Hi Marcello,
Maybe there is already the library in Python 2.3


I believe the OSAFoundation has something like an UUID generator for
Python in C. http://osafoundation.org/

I'm afraid you've to download Chandler to get it.

HTH,
Lars

Hi, I'm starting to use Python embedded in a C program. I'm using Python to execute several scripts using as a variables information retrieved for several multithread "agents" written in C. The method is: 1- Create a thread for each agent (I use a pool thread, every agent run in a different thread) 2- Precompile a different script for each agent. 3- Make the agent retrieve its data

I am embedding python in my C++ application. I am using Python *2.3.2* with a C++ extention DLL in multi-threaded environment. I am using SWIG-1.3.19 to generate C++ to Python interface. Now to explain it in details, 1. Python initialization and finalization is done in the *main* thread. 2. For each new thread I create a separate sub-interpreter . 3. Using PyRun_String("import myModule"...) before execution of python

Anyone know a good way to embed python within python? Now before you tell me that's silly, let me explain what I'd like to do. I'd like to allow user-defined scriptable objects. I'd like to give them access to modify pieces of my classes. I'd like to disallow access to pretty much the rest of the modules.

I accidentally sent this to webmaster@python.org, so this could be a duplicate if "webmaster" forwards it to this list. :{ Hi, there. Thanks for any help that can be offered. I've been working with Python for a year or more now, but only doing simple extending in C/C++. I'm now attempting some embedding and several questions have come to mind. BTW - I'm running Windows 2000 with Python23 and VisualC++ developers

Greetings, I am new to python and wish to embed python in an 3D graphics application to provide application automation. The high level goal is to be able to drive my app from a script for batch job like behavior rather than via the GUI (ie. I would like to run a script and see those changes reflected in the GUI as if the user had clicked buttons, etc.) The application is written in C++ and uses QT for the GUI. I have read the python...

With some googling I have found these resources: http://docs.python.org/ext/win-dlls.html http://www.python.org/doc/faq/windows.html I have a large Win32/MFC/C/C++ application that has an embedded scripting language (a very limited one). I would like to rip it out and replace it with Python. I am thinking that this would be relatively simple since the scripting language is a very small interface between the UI and the engine --...

Hello, I am currently studying how to embedd python. I am developing a graphical C++ application. My goal is to embedd python script that will control some kind of animation. I have some questions about python embedding: 1) Is there a good text book or other resource on embedding/extending?

Hi Everyone, I am a beginner on cross language development. My problem at hand is to build a python interface for a C++ application built on top of a 3D game engine. The purpose of this python interface is providing a convenient scripting toolkit for the application. One example is that a user can write a python script like: player = Player() game.loadPlayer(player) player.moveTo(location)
