Hi Samuel,
That is lovely! I'm happy to give that a try if I can get the Python
bindings to build, though having a hard time with that. The windows
building docs contain several suggestions for build environment. Ideally
I'd use something that is as close as possible to the environment Dave
uses for release builds.
Cheers,
Leoanrd

Python has something like the stable application binary Interface (ABI), see
https://docs.python.org/3.11/c-api/stable.html . This can be used by
enabling the limited API.
I wonder, has this ever been considered? If not, could it be considered to
create a brlapi python package that uses the limited API, preferably using
an API version that is equal to the minimum Python version that is still in
maintenance (currently 3.8)? That would ensure that you'd be able to use a
brlapi python extension with multiple python versions.
Apparently cython3 introduced some support for it, so it will be worth
trying it indeed.
(namely: CYTHON_LIMITED_API, that makes cython use the stable ABI)
