Re: [stdlib-sig] ctypes or struct from an h file

2009/10/18 Yuvgoog Greenle ubershmekel@gmail.com:

Is there a way that Python and C can have a shared definition for a binary data structure?

It could be nice if:

1. struct or ctypes had a function that could parse a .h/.c/.cpp file

to auto-generate constructors or 2. a ctypes definition could be exported to a .h file.

So my question is - is there a way to do this in the std-lib or even pypi?

No, not in the stldlib. There is a tool which read .h files and converted them to ctypes code, but I'm not sure of its status.

BTW, please ask questions like this on python-list next time.
