pyirrlicht - python ctypes binding

[devsh]

unfortunately I cannot use this project (hence why my project is going so slow), I want to embed python and not extend and make irrlicht usable by python itself (unlike pyirrlicht).

[_maxim_]

interesting! :)

so does this use ctypes or swig now?

i thought ctypes only works for c? how did you do a c++ wrapper using ctypes then?

is python 3.1/3.2 supported?

mainly ctypes, swig as nested project.

low level dll with many exported functions - python module have wrappered classes over these functions.

all versions python is supported.

if you do embeded python functional most compatible with irrlicht, perhaps you save time in the future.
also i willing to help with python code.

perhaps this project be interest for you http://code.google.com/p/ctypes-stuff/s ... ctypes-cpp

new version with some bugs fixed and some memory optimization

[Whirled Peas]

does this work with irrbullet? Or do I have to go in and manually include the bullet libraries in stead?

I'm not sure, but there should be no problems with it.
If Bullet has no implementation with Python, then it may be mixed with irrlicht_c.dll (see source).

new version with FreeBASIC support

i am wondering why its called irrlicht_c.dll instead of original irrlicht.dll? did you have to modify engine itself somehow?

by the way great project, i just recently started looking for py wrapper for irrlicht and your project fell from the sky like gift of gods, thanks

because this differs from original as C from C++
these not modify, only some additions, such as grid and vector font from this forum

patched python script with some bugs fixed http://kolosov.ath.cx/pyirrlicht_py_0951.zip

Thank you for your interest in my project

Great to see a python binding to irrlicht again !
thanks for the great work.

I found a bug in irrlicht.i :
irrlicht.i mentions IGUIToolBar.h but the file in irrlicht 1.7.1 is named iGUIToolbar.h so it works on case insensitive OSes (windows) but fail on others (i'm on Debian)

But it seems to have another but, i'm trying with :
swig -c++ -o irr_pyXX.cxx -keyword -I../irrlicht_1.7.1/include -python -castmode -cppcast -interface irr_pyXX irrlicht.i

And I got :

Thanks with your bug report, I look tomorrow this.

Now is new version with SVG partial support via AGG library.

Sorry for delay.
Change IQ3Shader.h line 21 to "static core::stringc irrEmptyStringc;"
