I have what might be a ridiculous question for you all regarding
embedded python. Hopefully I can explain it properly. I'm going to
explain it within the context of Boost.Python, as that's what we're
planning on using.
If we write a Python module and also embed Python with Boost.Python, and
in the embedded python call back into C++, and then in that C++ call
back into Python, what happens?
I'll try and explain that a bit more clearly.
1.) Write Python Module
2.) Embed Python Interpreter
3.) Import Python Module
4.) Call C++ function via Boost.Python from embedded Python
5.) Call Python function via Boost.Python from C++ function that was
originally called by Python
Is that possible? Would Python's thread be busy waiting for the initial
C++ function to return?
Thanks!
