Sometimes Python just isn't fast enough. Or you have existing code in
a C++ library. cppimport combines the process of compiling and
importing an extension in Python so that you can type modulename =
cppimport.imp("modulename") and not have to worry about multiple
steps.
.
cppimport looks for a C or C++ source file that matches the requested
module. If such a file exists, the file is first run through the Mako
templating system. The compilation options produced by the Mako pass
are then used to compile the file as a Python extension. The extension
(shared library) that is produced is placed in the same folder as the
C++ source file. Then, the extension is loaded.
.
Most cppimport users combine it with pybind11, but you can use a range
of methods to create your Python extensions. Raw C extensions,
Boost.Python, SWIG all work.
