As I've been out of the loop for a while, I figured it would be best to ask
this question on both the CS and the CEL mailing lists.
My project (Precursors, for those that remember it) stalled about a year
ago. We've finally gotten back to dusting things off, and we've been working
on is as a normal C++ project. However, many of the developers have
expressed a desire to code some/all of it in python. The ability to use
twisted (Python network library) was one major topic of conversation.
Is is currently possible to have a 'pure' python CS or CEL application? I
know that CS/CEL will need to be there, as will any python libraries we use,
but deployment can be tackled. I just want to know if it can even be done at
this point in time.
Secondly, if it can be done, realistically, how difficult will development
be? CS is and will always be a C++ library. Python extensions are great, but
the learning curve is horrible if there's no good, up to date documentation.
A 'Beginner's guide' to writing a CS python application would be a huge
start... does such a thing exist? Is there any documentation at all? What
about examples?
I guess the final question would be this: has anyone seriously tried active
development on a python CS application?
Well, here's to hoping that there will be a good deal of affirmatives to my
questions!
