Dear oli vogt, On Tue, 20 May 2014 13:53:00 +1200, oli vogt wrote: > Foreign Function Interface for Python calling C code. > > Signed-off-by: oli vogt <oli.vogt.pub01@gmail.com> Thanks also for this contribution. I'm wondering what's the difference between this Python module and the standard 'ctypes' module at https://docs.python.org/2/library/ctypes.html, which also uses libffi ? Some other cmoments below. > diff --git a/package/python-cffi/Config.in b/package/python-cffi/Config.in > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000..7967e8a > --- /dev/null > +++ b/package/python-cffi/Config.in > @@ -0,0 +1,11 @@ > +config BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON_CFFI > + bool "python-cffi" > + depends on BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON > + help > + This is the Foreign Function Interface for Python calling C code. > + The aim of this project is to provide a convenient and > + reliable way of calling C code from Python. > + > + Not tested with Python-3 It does seem to support Python 3, so it would be good to give it a quick test and enable that possibility. > + > + https://pypi.python.org/pypi/cffi > diff --git a/package/python-cffi/python-cffi.mk b/package/python-cffi/python-cffi.mk > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000..10bf535 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/package/python-cffi/python-cffi.mk > @@ -0,0 +1,13 @@ > +################################################################################ > +# > +# python-cffi > +# > +################################################################################ > + > +PYTHON_CFFI_VERSION = 0.8.2 > +PYTHON_CFFI_SOURCE = cffi-$(PYTHON_CFFI_VERSION).tar.gz > +PYTHON_CFFI_SITE = https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/c/cffi/ > +PYTHON_CFFI_SETUP_TYPE = setuptools > +PYTHON_CFFI_LICENSE = MIT You could add: PYTHON_CFFI_LICENSE_FILES = LICENSE Also, from a quick look at the setup.py, it seems to be used pkg-config, so I believe you want to add 'host-pkgconf' to PYTHON_CFFI_DEPENDENCIES. And isn't this Python module linked against libffi? If that's the case, it should depend on the libffi package, no? Thanks! Thomas
