C/C++
There a various tools which make it easier to bridge the gap between Python and C/C++:
SWIG - generate extension module from your .h files
boost.python - write (tiny) C++ class to wrap your classes in an extension module
Pyrex - write your extension module on Python
weave - include C code lines in Python program
SIP - similar to SWIG but specialised for Python and C++. Used to create PyQt, the Qt API wrapper library
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.
elmer - compile and run python code from C, as if it was written in C
pwig is a SWIG extension for writting new language modules in Python.
PicklingTools is a collection of libraries for exchanging Python Dictionaries between C++ and Python.
