This offers both another level of optimization to those who need +it, and an easy way to modify and extend any supported extension +libraries. Weave automatically builds an extension module from the +given C/C++ code and runs that. This can result in very significant +speedups (of upto 500x) depending on the problem. Weave also supports +inlining SWIG-1.3.x wrapped objects. + +The example in this directory requires that weave be installed. Weave +is distributed as part of SciPy (http://www.scipy.org). More +information on Weave may be had from here: + + http://www.scipy.org/documentation/weave + +As of November 22, 2004, this example only works with weave from CVS. +If there is a more recent release of SciPy after this date, it should +work fine. + + +Also, you need to replace the weave file swigptr2.py by the one +provided here. + |
