C/C++

There a various tools which make it easier to bridge the gap between Python and C/C++:

• [http://www.swig.org/ SWIG] - generate extension module from your .h files

• ["boost.python"] - write (tiny) C++ class to wrap your classes in an extension module

• [http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~greg/python/Pyrex/ Pyrex] - write your extension module on Python

• [http://cxx.sourceforge.net/ CXX]

• [http://starship.python.net/crew/gmcm/scxx.html SCXX]

• ["weave"] - include C code lines in Python program
• ["SIP"] - ["Qt"] API wrapper library

• [http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/ctypes.html ctypes] is a Python module allowing to create and manipulate C data types in Python. These can then be passed to C-functions loaded from dynamic link libraries.

• [http://elmer.sourceforge.net elmer] - compile and run python code from C, as if it was written in C

[Hint: The idea is to create pages for the stuff, not just link it.]
