Anthony Foglia commented on QPID-3333: -------------------------------------- How did you have to modify your spout and drain, other than any changes in module names? One problem with making this a fully drop-in replacements is that the python api is a subpackage of the qpid package. So users typically import qpid.messaging and use the full package name (e.g. connection = qpid.messaging.Connection.). One can't do the usual trick of trying to open the compiled version easily, e.g. try : import cPickle as pickle except ImportError : import pickle Instead in our code we've been doing, try : import cqpid as messaging except ImportError : import qpid.messaging as messaging I don't like using the generic name "messaging", but it was the easiest. Another problem, which I need to dive into more, is that the make files install the compiled _cqpid.so in ${PREFIX}/lib, not ${PREFIX}/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages or ${PREFIX}/lib64/pythonX.Y/site-packages. I don't know any of the details of autotools or cmake, but I want to dig in a little before making a new bug report on it. > Make Python SWIG bindings a drop-in replacement for pure Python > qpid.messaging package > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: QPID-3333 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-3333 > Project: Qpid > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: C++ Client > Affects Versions: 0.11, Future > Reporter: Anthony Foglia > Attachments: 0001-Wrap-NoMessageAvailable-as-Empty-exception.patch, > 0002-Change-Connection-interface-to-match-pure-python.patch, > 0003-Change-Session-interface-to-match-pure-python.patch, > 0004-Change-Receiver-interface-to-match-pure-python.patch, > 0005-Change-Sender-interface-to-match-pure-python.patch, > 0006-Change-Message-interface-to-match-pure-python.patch > > > These patches are make the compile Python SWIG bindings to the C++ client > much closer to a drop-in replacement for the Python qpid.messaging package. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
