Hi, I have an application consisting of a main C++ class (and other classes) stored inside a DLL. The application uses a small main executable that links against the main DLL, then initializes and runs the core class. The python bindings are inside a .pyd module that also links against the core DLL file. I was able to generate the python bindings against the core class using SWIG. The application can now be run either by the bootstrap executable or through the python console like:
import foo s = foo.MainClass() s.run(); This is awesome, however I want to be able to launch python scripts from within the application itself (no matter how it was started) and supply these scripts with a "pointer" to the already initialized main Class something like: import foo s = foo.GetMainClass() s.someMethod(). I found this: http://docs.python.org/ext/extending-with-embedding.html but the problem is that I don't know how to "give" the python interpreter a "pointer" to my class that will be compatible with the already defined bindings that SWIG generated. I am trying to keep the core application dll from knowing about the .pyd extension module. I apologize if this post belongs in a group dedicated to SWIG.
