If it's pure C, stop using SWIG. Create a DLL/SO-file of your message.c &
use ctypes to wrap that.

Not sure where you're having trouble. I can understand if there's a
language barrier, but I think that the introductory SWIG documentation
is pretty darn straightforward , even if you just look at the code, so
I don't think there's anything that could be said here that's any more
clear, as far as the basics are concerned. You'd have to explain
exactly what it is you're stuck on.

As far as I understand, SWIG will not generate an interface file for
you. You have to write it yourself, to tell SWIG what parts of your API
you want to expose in python.

HTH,

Hi, I'm using Python in my win32 app by linking to the python23.dll. I'm trying to expose some c++ code in my app to Python so I can make application calls from Python scripts (according to the Python windows FAQ I shouldn't have to make a seperate dll, see link below). I create a MyModule.i file for swig which contains a simple test c++ class. I run swig on it with the following options: swig -python -c++ -includeall -shadow MyModule.i,...

Could anyone post a simple setup.py script that uses a SWIG interface to C++ code and the mingw compiler? I followed some online samples, and am using the setup.cfg file to specify swig-c++=1. Trying to build using mingw out of the cygwin environment but the final call to link the extension calls directly to 'cc' which I think should really be g++ at that point.

Hi, I´m looking for some benchmarks comparing SWIG generated modules with modules made directly with C/Python API. Just how much overhead does SWIG give? Doing profile of my code I see, that it spends quiet some time in functions like _swig_setattr_nondinamic, _swig_setattr, _swig_getattr.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
