[C++-sig] Status of Numpy support in boost python - III

2011-03-01 Thread Andrea Arteaga 
Hello. My name is Andrea Arteaga and I'm student of Computational Science
and Engineering at the ETH Zurich.
I see in the wiki page  and
in this mailing list
that you have a
project whithin the Google Summer of Code program regarding
Numpy support in Boost.Python and you search for interested students. Well,
I'm that student! I use both Boost.Python and numpy and I'm familiar with
the Python C API. I never *splashed about* in the Boost.Python source code,
but I'm very curious.

If you are still interested to be a mentor organization, I'm ready to spend
my summer (and not only the summer: I'm also interested in becoming a
regular contributor) working for this project.

Best regards.
Andrea Arteaga

Hi Andrea,

welcome to this community, and thank you for your interest into the GSoC 
program.


Could you elaborate a little on what you would like to be working on, 
i.e. in what way you would like to improve the existing numeric support 
in boost.python ?


Thanks,
Stefan

[C++-sig] boost::python::set missing?

2011-03-01 Thread Wichert Akkerman 
I noticed that the standard python set type is not exposed. Are there 
any plans to add that?

I think that's a fine idea. (My guess is that it didn't make it into the 
boost.python API because it was added after the initial API had been 
designed.)

That's exactly right. Boost.Python was developed when Python 2.2 had just come 
out. (Boost.Python 1 was even based on 1.5.2)

I'm not aware of plans for adding boost::python::set, but it would be a great 
addition.
