Issue sending data from C++ to Python

[Pablo Martinez Ulloa]

Hello,

I have been using your C++ Python API, in order to establish a bridge from
C++ to Python. We want to do this, as we have a tactile sensor, which only
has a library developed in C++, but we want to obtain the data in real time
in Python to perform tests with a robotic arm and gripper. The problem we
are facing is with transmitting the data into Python. We are using the
function Py_BuildValue, and it seems to be working, but only for sending
one value at a time, and we want to transmit 54 numbers. When
transmitting a single value retrieved from the sensor into Python in a
double or string format, it works, but when we make the string bigger it
gives us an error with the utf-8 encoding. Also when sending a tuple of
doubles or strings, it works when the tuple is composed of a single
element, but not when we send 2 or more values. Is there any way of fixing
this issue? Or is it just not possible to transmit such a large amount of
data?

Thank you.
Best regards,
