  • Glue It All Together With Python

    ...functionality of large components written in C/C++ available to the Python programmer. The extension ("glue") modules are required because 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 automa...

    ...function. If a requested property name (the dictionary key) is in the cache, we reuse it. Otherwise, we find the associated function, call it to compute the value, store the result in the cache, and return it. The functions themselves are given a reference to the Properties manager so they can recursively request any additionally needed dependencies. To add a new prediction we register the new function in the function table -- and let the functions themselves handle the dependencies. The cache i...

  • Web SIG

    ...functionality checklist from it, and add that functionality to a new webserver module. I'd start with Medusa, since I'm familiar with it and pretty happy with it, but something else might be better. The other major problem on the server side is the lack of server-side SSL support, critical in today's hostile networking environment. Finally, something like PyPHP would be a good thing to support in the webserver module. Related Links Mailing list Mailing list archives Web programming Wiki page...

    ...function (PyMemoryView_GET_BUFFER() can be used instead). ctypes function pointers that are COM methods have a boolean True value again. Issue #1819: function calls with several named parameters are now on average 35% faster (as measured by pybench). The undocumented C APIs PyUnicode_AsString() and PyUnicode_AsStringAndSize() were made private to the interpreter, in order to be able to refine their interfaces for Python 3.1. If you need to access the UTF-8 representation of a Unicode object a...

  • t1python - A Type1 Font Renderer for Python

    ...functions which support the rasterization of Type1 fonts directly into X11 bitmaps and pixmaps; these are not needed from Python. An object-oriented layer written in Python makes using the primitives a bit easier, and an additional module supports the conversion of t1lib glyphs to Python Imaging Library (PIL) Image objects, and allows for use of the fonts with PIL's ImageDraw class. Release 0.9.1 After not keeping with the ...

    ...functionality based on Tribon core technology, including the Tribon PIM. To achieve this, Tribon Solutions had to create an API that was platform independent, easy to use, had all the strengths of a modern programming language, and was extendable and embeddable. Choosing Python Tribon began work on its API in 1995. Two different paths were considered at this stage: Either to publish directly the libraries used by Tribon, or to create a wrapper on top of existing code. The first approach would ...

  • Python Success Stories

    ...functionality. Test-Driven Development Dynamic languages like Python complement automated testing, by allowing the patching of modules, classes, methods or attributes with arbitrary objects at runtime. This allows tests to easily eliminate dependencies of the code under test, and thus concentrating on testing one thing at at time. Additionally, it makes it easy to stimulate particular behaviours or failure modes during the test. For example, by patching the file 'open' function with another fu...

  • Python Success Stories

    ...functions. Python was chosen for several reasons: Python (like Java) is a modern language with objects, modules, threads, exceptions, and automatic memory management. At the time, both C and C++ were rejected as missing at least some of these features. The solution needed to be multi-threaded. Neither Perl nor Java was chosen as the solution at the time. Perl was not considered to be as robust. Java did not allow control over the core interpreter. The language was subject to the quirks of the p...

  • Python Patterns - Implementing Graphs

    ...functions are about as simple as they get. Yet, they are nearly optimal (for code written in Python). In another Python Patterns column, I will try to analyze their running speed and improve their performance, at the cost of more code. UPDATE: Eryk Kopczyński pointed out that these functions are not optimal. To the contrary, "this program runs in exponential time, while find_shortest_path can be done in linear time using BFS [Breadth First Search]. Furthermore a linear BFS is simpler...
