Hello, SAGE developers! I have a question about C standard which SAGE packages should conform to. Is it C99? Plain ANSI C? "Modern ANSI C", i.e. ANSI C which borrowed several features from C99?
I am working on Python<=>ALGLIB interface with intention to make it usable from SAGE. It is Python interface to the pure C package, created using CTYPES. I.e. C part of this interface is not C extension to Python package, it is totally separate shared library which is used through CTYPES foreign function library. Python-C interface generator is ready, now I work in automatic generation of C code. One week, I think, and it will be ready. But I can't decide what C standard to choose. As for me, I'd like to use ANSI C with several widely supported features from C99 - inline functions, "//" comments, maybe something else. But this thing should be compiled for SAGE, so I don't know can I use something beyond ANSI C or not. There is no information on this subject at the SAGE Developer Guide, so I am asking this question here. -- With best regards, Sergey mailto:sergey.bochka...@alglib.net -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
