For instance, he's the author of the bindings to the KDE2 libraries. For these reasons, I asked him to write an appendix on using sip.</P><DIVCLASS="SECT1"><H1CLASS="SECT1">Introduction</A></H1><P>Wrapping C++ libraries for use from Python is a profitable undertaking, given the wealth of functionality that becomes available after doing so. Python, in contrast with Java, has been designed from the outset to be easily extensible with ‘foreign' libraries written in C. C++, however, is a far more complex language than C, and requires careful attention to the creation, ownership and destruction of objects. Trolltech have made the work even more complicated with the invention of a special meta-object pre-compiler needed to get techniques like signals and slots working.</P><P>These days it is not usual to wrap C++ libraries by hand. If only because of the size of the Qt libraries, it probably isn't practical to write these bindings manually, so an automated tool, <SPAN><ICLASS="EMPHASIS">sip</I></SPAN>, was developed by Phil Thompson (the PyQt developer) to generate the necessary binding code.</P><P>As you know, PyQt is a set of Python bindings for the Qt libraries. That means that PyQt isn't a translation of Qt into Python—instead, the ‘bindings' let you access and use the C++ Qt libraries from the Python language via an intermediate wrapper library, which is also written (or rather, generated) in C++.</P><P>The <SPAN><ICLASS="EMPHASIS">sip</I></SPAN> program generates these C++ ‘wrappers'. Wrappers are chunks of C++ code that allow Python to pass data to and from other C++ code and to invoke C++ methods or functions. <SPAN><ICLASS="EMPHASIS">Sip</I></SPAN> gets its name (and some of it's architecture) from another wrapper generator named <SPAN><ICLASS="EMPHASIS">swig</I></SPAN>. In fact, <SPAN><ICLASS="EMPHASIS">sip</I></SPAN> started out as a small <SPAN><ICLASS="EMPHASIS">swig</I></SPAN>, although it has grown a bit since then. It is specifically designed to generate Python bindings for C++ libraries, while <SPAN><ICLASS="EMPHASIS">swig</I></SPAN> is more general purpose, and can wrap C libraries for a variety of scripting languages. Of course, <SPAN><ICLASS="EMPHASIS">sip</I></SPAN> also offers some additional functionality, like support for signals and slots, Python inheritance of C++ objects, and many other C++ language features:</P><P></P><UL><LI><P>Re-implementation of C++ virtual methods in Python.</P></LI><LI><P>Sub-classing C++ classes from Python.</P></LI><LI><P>Access to a C++ class's protected methods.</P></LI><LI><P>Overloading of C++ functions and methods with different parameter type signatures.</P></LI><LI><P>Automatic translation between C++ classes and similar (but more appropriate) Python types.</P></LI></UL></DIV></DIV><DIVCLASS="NAVFOOTER"><HRALIGN="LEFT"WIDTH="100%"><TABLESUMMARY="Footer navigation table"WIDTH="100%"BORDER="0"CELLPADDING="0"CELLSPACING="0"><TR><TDWIDTH="33%"ALIGN="left"VALIGN="top"><A accesskey="P" href="index.lxp@lxpwrap=x8818_252ehtm.htm">Prev</A></TD><TDWIDTH="34%"ALIGN="center"VALIGN="top"><A accesskey="H" href="index.lxp@lxpwrap=book1_252ehtm">Home</A></TD><TDWIDTH="33%"ALIGN="right"VALIGN="top"><A accesskey="N" href="index.lxp@lxpwrap=x8867_252ehtm.htm">Next</A></TD></TR><TR><TDWIDTH="33%"ALIGN="left"VALIGN="top">PyQwt</TD><TDWIDTH="34%"ALIGN="center"VALIGN="top"><A accesskey="U" href="index.lxp@lxpwrap=p8645_252ehtm.htm">Up</A></TD><TDWIDTH="33%"ALIGN="right"VALIGN="top">How sip works</TD></TR></TABLE></DIV></BODY></HTML> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> ⌨️ 快捷键说明
