I have a couple dozen C structures that define binary file records. I need to read the file and access the records. I need to do this very efficiantly.
I am aware of the Python struct class, but the C structures contain arrays of nested structures and I'm not sure if Python struct can handle it. I am willing to give up portability for speed. I will run the Python program on the same machine that the file was created on. Is there some way to directly expose a C struct to Python? Regards, C.
