Project description
cfficloak - A simple but flexible module for creating object-oriented, pythonic CFFI wrappers. This is an extension of cffiwrap from https://bitbucket.org/memotype/cffiwrap
The intention is to more fully wrap/hide binary extensions build with cffi to improve auto-completion, inspection of objects and reading/writing/copying/assigning to c objects, especially structs and unions. Wrapped functions provide a number of auto-conversion to/from types with error handling and output pointer argument creation. Function skeletons can provide python definitions of c functions to improve auto-compiletion in python code and declaration of out args, error checking and default arguments. Structs can take numpy arrays assigned to array elements and handle two-way linking for you without any copies. There are a number of other utilities and wrappers provided to simpliy usage of cffi modules in day-to-day coding.
Install with # pip install cfficloak
