...case where no exception is thrown, and throwing an exception can pose serious performance penalties. Secondly, enough C++ implementations have bugs in their exception-handling mechanisms that it is best not to rely on exceptions for routine control flow. Goal: Modification of the type conversion mechanism so that overloading can be implemented without the use of C++ exceptions. C++ to Python Exception Translation It is critical for any mature C++ software packag...
...cause Python cannot call C/C++ functions directly; the glue extensions handle conversion between Python data types and C/C++ data types and error checking, translation error return values into Python exception. Creation of glue extensions is simplified by the existence of SWIG, which reads header files containing function and method prototypes and automatically generates the necessary type conversion and error checking code. In situations where the underlying code (usually C code) doe...
...class C. For instance, in the case of single inheritance hierarchy, if C is a subclass of C1, and C1 is a subclass of C2, then the linearization of C is simply the list [C, C1 , C2]. However, with multiple inheritance hierarchies, the construction of the linearization is more cumbersome, since it is more difficult to construct a linearization that respects local precedence ordering and monotonicity. I will discuss the local precedence ordering later, but I can give the definition of monotonicit...

...ctive C connection lives on in the PyObjC project at SourceForge! The purpose of this SIG is to complete a Python extension module binding the Objective-C and Python runtime systems. Goals include: Providing the ability to dynamically call from Objective-C to Python and vice versa. Resolving the syntactic differences between the languages. Providing the ability to move inheritance, interface, and implementation easily across the Python/Objective-C boundary. Generic...

Extending Python in C
...ctive-C SIG Status Objective-C SIG Status Lele Gaifax has recently posted a much improved module to provide Python bindings to the Objective-C runtime. Bill Bumgarner is archiving the latest releases, along with quad-fat binaries and other useful Objective-C/Python stuff. Bill's archive is available at ftp://ftp.thoughtport.net/pub/next/lang/

The product stands as a testament, at least to the team here, that Python is viable for commercial systems-level development and not just a scripting language.

For class C3, it is satisfied because M3 is a...
...C++ macros to try to turn a declarative description of the schema into executable code. The better way to do it is with code generation: a program that writes programs. We could use a tool to read the schema and generate the C++ code, then compile that generated code into the product. We needed a way to read the schema description file and output pieces of code that could be integrated into our C++ sources to be compiled with the rest of the product. Rather than write a program specific to our...
...cords shows that 360 days were spent on 77K lines of Python code and 300 days (almost as much) on 44K of C, C++, or other code. From our experience with code conversions, we believe it is roughly correct for most types of performance-critical code to equate one line of Python with ten lines of C or C++ code. This means that about 5-10% of our application functionality is in C or C++ and the rest is in Python. Even considering that the C/C++ code is somewhat more complex than most of the Python c...

Conclusion In summary, we believe the choice to base our product technology on Python provides WordStream with a strategic, technological advantage over our competitors because of the increased productivity, reliability and extensibility that it enables.

...ctures, and executes typical code much slower than Python. Tcl also lacks features needed for writing large programs, such as modular namespaces. Thus, while a "typical" large application using Tcl usually contains Tcl extensions written in C or C++ that are specific to that application, an equivalent Python application can often be written in "pure Python". Of course, pure Python development is much quicker than having to write and debug a C or C++ component. It has been said that Tcl's...
