Dear All,
I have some question regarding embedding and exposing of C pointers.
We have embedded python and extended to expose our APIs and c objects to python.
Every thing is working fine as far as customizing our application through python.
How ever i am expecting following behavior but it failed. Can some oe suggest a work around!!
Here is my python code
import myModule
a=myModule.myAPI1("1")
b=myModule.myAPI2("name")# basically both above functions return same C pointer. # so i want to compare if(a==b): print "They are same" else : print "They are different"
python always prints they are different,
I guess this is because in python layer we create PythonCObject for every C pointer, and that is how it is exposed to python. Though both the APIs are returning the same C pointer, they are different instances of PythonCObject.
So i guess that is the reason comparison is failing.
How ever is it possible to make python to compare actual C pointer, rather than the PythonCObject Pointer.
Can some one please suggest
Regards, Anand
