digitalmars.D - Pyd

Be warned: There are still some rough edges that need smoothing out, and 
it is barely documented. (Though I have been pretty good about putting 
in ddoc comments.) I also haven't thoroughly tested everything, so if 
anyone spots some bugs, I'd be interested to hear about it. It is also 
somewhat fiddly to build, requiring the use of various bits and pieces 
that are scattered here and there; maybe I'll write a "how to build" 
guide at some point.

In the easiest case, get David Rushby's Celerid (see the readme.txt 
file), replace its python.d with my python.d (included in Pyd's "header" 
directory), edit the build.bat and build_ddoc.bat files to give them 
your appropriate PATH info, and you should be good to go. I haven't 
bothered with a Linux solution yet as DMD can't compile dynamic 
libraries in Linux. I am very interested in adding this support once 
that has been fixed.

My work on celerid has halted until DMD on Linux is fixed, so why don't we officially agree that your python.d has superseded mine? If in the future I want to do further work on the functionality that CeleriD contained, I'll try to contribute to Pyd rather than continuing with CeleriD. Does that sound reasonable?

Does that mean you want to merge Celerid and Pyd? It does seem reasonable to have one project for all the D/Python compatability stuff. -Kirk McDonald

Yes. I think users will find it easier to deal with an integrated package. I *would* like to see the current capabilities of CeleriD (the option to use the plain Python/C API rather than the object-oriented wrapper if desired, and the ability to compile with a familiar distutils setup.py style) preserved in the integrated CeleriD/Pyd, but I don't anticipate that that would be a problem, do you?

Certainly not. The raw Python/C API is still fully accessible by simply saying "import python". (I've been careful to always say "private import python" in Pyd's source, so it isn't available by simply saying "import pyd.pyd".) (As a matter of fact, mixing the Python/C API with Pyd is currently necessary as the whole thing hasn't been wrapped quite yet.) As for compilation with the distutils-style setup.py, this is my preferred method. At the moment, the setup.py file itself needs to be told what Pyd's source files are. By integrating the two projects, compiling these files can be done automatically, perhaps with a flag in the setup.py to build in "classic," object-oriented-layer-free mode. -Kirk McDonald

Done! I've essentially just crammed Pyd in the "infrastructure" directory of Celerid and informed the DMDDCompiler class about the Pyd source files. I think I can now say that Pyd is in a state where you can actually use it for useful things. I think the next step is fleshing out the documentation, which I've let slide since I started writing the class wrapping features. -- Kirk McDonald Pyd: Wrapping Python with D http://dsource.org/projects/pyd/wiki

This is now done to some extent. There is currently one fairly serious limitation: You can't wrap two different constructors that take the same number of arguments. I can fix this eventually, but this is a good first step. Aside from this limitation, it works: class Foo { int m_i; this() { } this(int i) { m_i = i; } this(int i, int j) { m_i = i + j; } void foo() { writefln("Foo.foo(): i = %s", m_i); } } extern (C) export void inittestdll() { module_init("testdll"); auto Foo_ = wrap_class!("Foo", Foo)(); Foo_.init!(ctor!(int), ctor!(int, int)); Foo_.def!("foo", Foo.foo); finalize_class!("Foo", Foo); } In Python:
 a = testdll.Foo()
 a.foo()
Foo.foo(): i = 0
 b = testdll.Foo(10)
 b.foo()
Foo.foo(): i = 10
 c = testdll.Foo(12, 30)
 c.foo()
Foo.foo(): i = 42 There are still some issues: Passing an unconvertable type (e.g. giving the ctor a string when it expects an int) appears to have dire consequences (Python crashes), and I'm still tracking the precise problem down. (It's undoubtedly an uncaught exception; Python reacts quite badly when those go uncaught.) -Kirk McDonald

Great stuff, though I have very little experience with Python. It's fascinating to me to see how many similarities there are between the front ends of Pyd and DDL. When I finish updating my meta.nameof module, I'll return to improving the DDL interface for class loading. Since I last worked on it, many DMD bugs have been fixed, and we now have IFTI. Some of the techniques will be transferable to Pyd. Certainly it would AT LEAST be possible to do:
     auto Foo_ = wrap_class!(Foo)();
     Foo_.init!(ctor!(int), ctor!(int, int)); // could almost 
certainly improve this, too.
     Foo_.def!(Foo.foo);
     finalize_class!(Foo);
It may be possible to come up with a generic dynamic linking front-end which can be reused for a huge variety of programming languages; that's an exiting concept.

I think you should swap the order of the first two arguments to most of these functions. The function being wrapped is more fundamental than the name. If you did this, you could (for example) use my newly-updated meta.nameof module to change the definition of def!() to: private import meta.nameof; template def(alias fn, char[] name = symbolnameof!(fn), uint MIN_ARGS = NumberOfArgs!(typeof(&fn)), fn_t = typeof(&fn)) {....} so that users would write def!(baz); f.def!(Foo.foo); f.prop!(Foo.i); Equally valid if D ever gets a built-in equivalent to symbolnameof!().

I agree! Most certainly. I've just been planning on doing it whenever I get around to requiring (and installing :-) DDL.
Actually, it really hasn't got anything to do with DDL. Meta doesn't use DDL, DDL doesn't use meta. It's just that the DDL project has such great code, it's nice to be associated with it, and pragma wrote a compile-time regexp engine that's in meta. Now enki is in DDL too, and it also seems to be quite independent. The definition of
 def!() will actually be:
 
 template def(alias fn, char[] name = symbolnameof!(fn), fn_t = 
 typeof(&fn), uint MIN_ARGS = MIN_ARGS!(fn))
 
 (I can derive MIN_ARGS automatically now, so I now view specifying it as 
 more anomolous than specifying fn_t.)
Cool!
 I think I'll make this change in the next revision, though I'm not 
 adding the support for symbolnameof /quite/ yet.
No, it's not quite well enough tested yet. If you just swap the template arguments, it will be something you can seamlessly drop in later. I really think it's just that single reference to symbolnameof!(), the import of nameof, and the three meta files. So it shouldn't be a big deal.

If anyone's interested, I just did some fairly major refactoring of how

sure if the new code is any shorter, but it is at least split into 
smaller, more easily read and reused chunks.

And I do realize that the code is a bit of a mess in places (the tuples

has there been any updates since July 2006 there does not seem to be any new msg's since unless you have forked this forum to a new location. if you have please provide I am new to D I have been learning python for some time and thought Python and D would work well together. Also are there any Projects using it yet I would like to get involved and contribute if possible.
