[Yt-dev] Fwd: [Cython] C++ support - A simple tutorial

[Matthew Turk]

Hi guys,

Cython now supports -- or will, with 0.13, coming soon -- wrapping C++
classes without any mucking about with a lot of fake wrapping and
whatnot.

This could be a BIG step forward for a LOT of projects.  Things like
direct wrapping of Enzo data structures -- particularly for inline
analysis! -- as well as interfacing with external C++ libraries for
graphics support.  Once upon a time I spent some effort to wrap Enzo
with Cython, and the C/C++ divide just ended up causing headaches, but
this should reduce or eliminate that quite a bit.

Just something to keep in mind.

As you know, Robert is planning to put the work about C++ Support in
next release. So, we have some new stuff, and people need to learn it.

I wrote a very simple tutorial on wiki [0], with some examples. I
think it's easy to learn (and use) it.

So, if you have any questions about it, just ask here.
