Hi all! I'm instead really intrested in this work, in real I started yet on this, I have a python-efl tree locally. I have done some test/tryout in the last 2/3 weeks to see how we can improve/simplify the bindings...but, to be honest, there are a lot of stuff to be done and I can't afford this alone. To start we need to discuss well what we want/need, so I'm going to list here all the idea I have in my mind: 1. python3 compatibility - for this goal we need to remove the metaclass stuff from all the code, I have done this point without problems in my tests 2. merging the tree will make it natural to use a container package, thus once merged you will need to import as: >>>from efl import evas instead of: >>>import evas 3. windoz compatibility - I really do not mind this point but has been requested some times. I think the fault here is compiling the bindings without ecore_x, probably the problem are some call to ecore_x_* also in ecore.Evas. This also let me think that all the non-x engines are broken :/ 4. Eo: coding an Eo base class in python seems to be a good choice, we can move there lots of code that now are duplicated around the libs: objects ref/unref, Object_from_instance, callbacks, touni/fruni/cfruni and stuff can be shared in the base Eo class) Also Eo weak reference need to be investigated, can be usefull here. 5. (this is my dream) Do we really need to bind all the ecore_evas, ecore_x and in general ecore_* stuff ? why not just remove them? we have elm now, we dont need anymore to use EcoreEvas just to create a win. Python is high level we should stay there 6. should elm be included in the python-efl tree? or alone as in c? ok, seems enough, too much work for me :( but imo having a single tree is necessary to simplify the release processes, that have zero man resource atm > -- > Tom. > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, > MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
