I want to write an application that embeds and extends (at least) the Python and Perl interpreters. Now i want to find as much as possible about the Python tools used for extending and embedding Python. To be more specific: My app should: 1. Parse an input file. 2. Call a script in some scripting language, to generate an output file, for example in C++.
For task 2 I need to call an embedded interpreter, and also provide call backs from the scripting language to C++, in order to read global information collected during parsing. In order to correctly compile and link my Application, I need a OS independent way to find compiler options and linker options necessary to find header files and libraries. What methods should I use from DistUtils for this purpose. I also need to find some way to verify that linker options necessary for embedding Perl is not incompatible with linking options for embedding Python.
