Just trying and improve the state of the art. Yea maybe we have to add some tricks to separate the two grammar wise, so they can play together. Besides, I didn't start with that complexity, it evolved into seeing if that was a viable path forward. On Tue, Aug 23, 2016 at 5:15 AM, Alex S. <alex0player@gmail.com> wrote:
Watching this thread for a long time now, and I must say I absolutely love how someone just barges in «oh just add parsing of C++ AST». C++ is a language with an extremely complex context-dependent grammar, much more so than C. Not to mention they took to updating the standard with new awesome features every 3 or 4 years, which all seem to absolutely need their own syntactic support.

And it would be a step back for the nice auto-conversion facilities you care about, e.g.
py_func(c_func(py_value))
would become
c_value = py_value cdef some_type c_ret inline_cpp "c_ret = c_func(c_value)" py_func(c_ret)
It's just choosing a smaller unit (line vs. file) to swap between languages.
And on this note it would also encourage use of the Python/C API (over swapping "back" to Python) which is often a dangerous step backwards. _______________________________________________ cython-devel mailing list cython-devel@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cython-devel
