Detailed Description

This is the object taking care of the interface with Python. Only one of these should be constructed.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

CPython::CPython

(

vector< string > &

pathvec

)

Constructor for the CPython object.

Parameters:

paths

a vector of paths to append: the python interpreter looks there for modules.

CPython::~CPython

(

)

The destructor: terminates the Python interface

Member Function Documentation

PyObject * CPython::callFunction	(	PyObject *	callable,
		PyObject *	args
	)			[static]

if returning a PyObject pointer: it is a new reference (i.e. decref it yourself)

void CPython::checkPyObj

(

const PyObject *const

obj

)

[static]

Check a PyObject for validity

QWidget * CPython::createPyWidget	(	QWidget *	parentWidget = NULL,
		PyObject *	args = NULL
	)			[static]

Check for NULL!

Create a widget based on the currently loaded module

PyObject * CPython::getDict

(

const string &

module

)

[static]

return the pointer to a previously loaded module. NULL if not found

PyObject * CPython::getModule

(

const string &

module

)

[static]

return the pointer to a previously loaded module. NULL if not found

void CPython::initHelperFunctions

(

void

)

[static, private]

adds functions python functions we could be calling from C to the current dictionary

PyObject * CPython::loadModule

(

const string &

module

)

[static]

loads the module "name", returns a pointer to the PyObject. if the module was already loaded the pointer to that object (which was stored) is returned.

Don't Py_DECREF it! (the object is stored for later use)

void CPython::printDict

(

PyObject *

dict = NULL

)

[static]

print the contents of a dictionary. Default: the current dictionary

void CPython::printModules

(

void

)

[static]

Print all the modules

void CPython::setDict

(

const string &

module

)

[static]

Set the dictionary to the dictionary of a module

void CPython::setDict

(

PyObject *

dict

)

[static]

Set the dictionary

---

Member Data Documentation

PyThreadState * CPython::_mainThreadState [static, private]

Contains the state of the main Python thread

map< string, struct module_data > CPython::modules_ [static, private]

A map of the loaded module names and a struct containing module info

PyObject * CPython::pyDict_ [static, private]

the currently active dictionary

PyObject * CPython::pyMainDict_ [static, private]

the main dictionary: custom functions are added here
