I'm the maintainer of the PyCXX C++ extension interface to Python C API.
PyCXX source code is a SVN repo at: https://svn.code.sf.net/p/cxx/code/trunk/CXX
I have been working to get PyCXX to build and run against PyPy C API.
I am happy to have PyPy specific code in PyCXX where necessary.
Using PyPy 0.6.0 on macOS I managed to build a .so that crashed when imported.
The reason is that the PyPy's C API does not allow tuples to be created.
The pattern in CPython is like this:
explicit Tuple (const Sequence& s)
{
sequence_index_type limit( sequence_index_type( s.length() ) );
set(PyTuple_New (limit), true);
validate();
for(sequence_index_type i=0; i < limit; i++)
{
if(PyTuple_SetItem (ptr(), i, new_reference_to(s[i])) == -1)
{
ifPyErrorThrowCxxException();
}
}
}
The PyTuple_SetItem() always fails. Its a must have to create tuples.
How do you expect a tuple to be created?
I have a build of the tip from the PyPy HG repo. This has regressed from the
0.6.0 release:
g++ -c -g -Wall -fPIC -fexceptions -frtti -I. -ISrc
-I/home/barry/tmpdir/usession-default-barry/build/pypy-qqq/include -DNDEBUG
-oobj/simple.obj Demo/Python2/simple.cxx
In file included from ./CXX/Objects.hxx:40,
from Demo/Python2/simple.cxx:15:
./CXX/Python2/Objects.hxx: In member function ‘void
Py::MapBase<T>::delItem(const string&)’:
./CXX/Python2/Objects.hxx:3041:17: error: there are no arguments to

^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It seems that PyMapping_DelItem and PyMapping_DelString have been removed since
0.6.0.
Can they be restored?
Oh and where does the magic "44" come from that I had to use in the
<extension>.pypy-44.so file name?
