Python调用C/C++的种种方法

Python是解释性语言, 底层就是用c实现的, 所以用python调用C是很容易的, 下面就总结一下各种调用的方法, 给出例子, 所有例子都在ubuntu9.10, python2.6下试过.

1. Python 调用 C (base)

想在python中调用c函数, 如这儿的fact

#include

int fact(int n)

{

if (n <= 1)

return 1;

else

return n * fact(n - 1);

}

PyObject* wrap_fact(PyObject* self, PyObject* args)

{

int n, result;

if (! PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "i:fact", &n))

return NULL;

result = fact(n);

return Py_BuildValue("i", result);

}

static PyMethodDef exampleMethods[] =

{

{"fact", wrap_fact, METH_VARARGS, "Caculate N!"},

{NULL, NULL}

};

void initexample()

{

PyObject* m;

m = Py_InitModule("example", exampleMethods);

}

把这段代码存为wrapper.c, 编成so库,

gcc -fPIC wrapper.c -o example.so -shared -I/usr/include/python2.6 -I/usr/lib/python2.6/config

然后在有此so库的目录, 进入python, 可以如下使用

import example

example.fact(4)

2. Python 调用 C++ (base)

在python中调用C++类成员函数, 如下调用TestFact类中的fact函数,

#include

class TestFact{

public:

TestFact(){};

~TestFact(){};

int fact(int n);

};

int TestFact::fact(int n)

{

if (n <= 1)

return 1;

else

return n * (n - 1);

}

int fact(int n)

{

TestFact t;

return t.fact(n);

}

PyObject* wrap_fact(PyObject* self, PyObject* args)

{

int n, result;

if (! PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "i:fact", &n))

return NULL;

result = fact(n);

return Py_BuildValue("i", result);

}

static PyMethodDef exampleMethods[] =

{

{"fact", wrap_fact, METH_VARARGS, "Caculate N!"},

{NULL, NULL}

};

extern "C" //不加会导致找不到initexample

void initexample()

{

PyObject* m;

m = Py_InitModule("example", exampleMethods);

}

把这段代码存为wrapper.cpp, 编成so库,

g++ -fPIC wrapper.cpp -o example.so -shared -I/usr/include/python2.6 -I/usr/lib/python2.6/config

然后在有此so库的目录, 进入python, 可以如下使用

import example

example.fact(4)

3. Python 调用 C++ (Boost.Python)

Boost库是非常强大的库, 其中的python库可以用来封装c++被python调用, 功能比较强大, 不但可以封装函数还能封装类, 类成员.

首先在ubuntu下安装boost.python, apt-get install libboost-python-dev

#include

char const* greet()

{

return "hello, world";

}

BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(hello)

{

using namespace boost::python;

def("greet", greet);

}

把代码存为hello.cpp, 编译成so库

g++ hello.cpp -o hello.so -shared -I/usr/include/python2.5 -I/usr/lib/python2.5/config -lboost_python-gcc42-mt-1_34_1

此处python路径设为你的python路径, 并且必须加-lboost_python-gcc42-mt-1_34_1, 这个库名不一定是这个, 去/user/lib查

然后在有此so库的目录, 进入python, 可以如下使用

>>> import hello

>>> hello.greet()

'hello, world'

4. python 调用 c++ (ctypes)

ctypes is an advanced ffi (Foreign Function Interface) package forPython 2.3 and higher. In
Python 2.5 it is already included.

ctypes allows to call functions in dlls/shared libraries and has extensive facilities to create, access and manipulate simple and complicated C data types in Python - in other words: wrap libraries in pure Python. It is even possible to implement C callback
functions in pure Python.
http://python.net/crew/theller/ctypes/
#include

class TestFact{

public:

TestFact(){};

~TestFact(){};

int fact(int n);

};

int TestFact::fact(int n)

{

if (n <= 1)

return 1;

else

return n * (n - 1);

}

extern "C"

int fact(int n)

{

TestFact t;

return t.fact(n);

}

将代码存为wrapper.cpp不用写python接口封装, 直接编译成so库,

g++ -fPIC wrapper.cpp -o example.so -shared -I/usr/include/python2.6 -I/usr/lib/python2.6/config

进入python, 可以如下使用

>>> import ctypes

>>> pdll = ctypes.CDLL('/home/ubuntu/tmp/example.so')

>>> pdll.fact(4)
