1 Interfacing C/C++ and Python with SWIG David M.  Beazley Department of Computer Science University of Chicago Chicago, Illinois  60615 beazley@cs.uchicago.edu SWIG Tutorial 7th International Python Conference 2 SWIG Tutorial 7th International Python Conference Prerequisites C/C++ programming • Youve written a C program. • Youve written a Makefile. • You know how to use the compiler and linker. Python programming • Youve heard of Python. • Youve hopefully written a few Python programs. Optional, but useful • Some knowledge of the Python C API. • C++ programming experience. Intended Audience • C/C++ application developers interested in making better programs • Developers who are adding Python to "legacy" C/C++ code. • Systems integration (Python as a glue language). Notes 3 SWIG Tutorial 7th International Python Conference C/C++ Programming The good • High performance. • Low-level systems programming. • Available everywhere and reasonably well standardized The bad • The compile/debug/nap development cycle. • Difficulty of extending and modifying. • Non-interactive. The ugly • Writing user-interfaces. • Writing graphical user-interfaces (worse). • High level programming. • Systems integration (gluing components together). Notes 4 SWIG Tutorial 7th International Python Conference What Python Brings to C/C++ An interpreted high-level programming environment • Flexibility. • Interactivity. • Scripting. • Debugging. • Testing • Rapid prototyping. Component gluing • A common interface can be provided to different C/C++ libraries. • C/C++ libraries become Python modules. • Dynamic loading (use only what you need when you need it). The best of both worlds • Performance of C • The power of Python. Notes 5 SWIG Tutorial 7th International Python Conference Points to Ponder "Surely ...
