In my spare time (huh), I've been working on a PHP extension that
allows the Python language interpretter to be embedded in PHP. This
allows a PHP developer to instantiate and manipulate Python objects
from within PHP (similar to the Java extension). There is also
limited support for accessing PHP data from within the embedded Python
environment, as well. All of the appropriate type conversions are
performed by the extension.
I just put together a web page that describes things in a bit more
detail. It's located here:
http://www.csh.rit.edu/~jon/projects/pip/
There's a public distribution of the extension at the bottom. Feel
free to download and play. At the moment, I am only able to provide a
Visual Studio project for building the extension. Putting together a
config.m4 file shouldn't be hard; I just haven't done it yet.
This is far from finished, but I'm hoping those of you that are
interested in the idea will take a few minutes to download and build
what I have so far. I'm mostly after general feedback and suggestions.
And if you spot a bug, I'd like to hear about that, too. =)
