Haiku-PyAPI: Python bindings for the Haiku API

Software Native
1

I have been working on Python bindings for the Haiku API for a while,
and I think they are now somewhat usable.
All of the Application Kit is done, And of the Interface Kit,
BButton, BControl, BRect, BStringView, BTextControl, BView, BWindow and BFont is done.
the bindings are here, and here is a project I am doing with them.
Example: (Incomplete)

#!/bin/python3.9

currently,
I am having a problem with my project (the example code),
where, for first window, closing works, and pressing the start button works.

it then goes to the next window,

where is has an error wether i close it or press ok.
for closing

@PulkoMandy can you help me?

No, otherwise I would have replied.

Oof, your project was hard to compile. I even had to comment some lines out from the python program to avoid compiling Font.cpp, which spat out a long string of error messages. But I managed to reproduce the error message.

After a while probing around, I figured out that making two duplicate ok_msg variables, one for the text box and the other for the ok button fixes the crash. After some thinking and research, this is my guess: the text box deletes ok_msg when the window closes and the ok button deletes ok_msg when the window closes. In other words, ok_msg gets freed twice!

Edit: Sent you a PR with a small fix to the build system. Might even be your first PR from somebody other than yourself :slight_smile:

Thank you!
What where the errors for Font.cpp?

7

Oh, about the PR, I actually had some changes from a few days ago that I hadnā€™t pushed, so I must have pushed a non-working state.

There are a lot. Here are the first few. Looks like itā€™s going to be fun to debug :smile:

I think I fixed that already, try pulling my code from github.

The way I would fix this sort of errors is:
I would comment out line 92, after trying changing it to .def_readonly
and for line 163 and 164,
I would add , py::const_ to the parentheses after py::overload_cast
making 164
.def("GetTruncatedStrings", py::overload_cast<const char *, int, unsigned int, float, char *>(&BFont::GetTruncatedStrings, py::const_), "", py::arg("stringArray"), py::arg("numStrings"), py::arg("mode"), py::arg("width"), py::arg("resultArray"))

Congratulations, your commit fixed Font.cpp!

Ah, I have heard that template programming can give some pretty convoluted error messagesā€¦ Looks like itā€™s true.

One other compilation error remains:

View.cpp: In function 'void pybind11_init_View(pybind11::module_&)':
View.cpp:402:18: error: '_rule_' was not declared in this scope
  402 | m.def("_rule_", &_rule_, "", py::arg("r1"), py::arg("r2"), py::arg("r3"), py::arg("r4"));
      |                  ^~~~~~

By the way, Iā€™ve been thinking of rewriting the build system using Jamfiles. Is that ok or do you prefer Makefiles?

12

Well, I donā€™t have much experience with either, but I am more familiar with make.
About the error,
Have you pulled my updated code?

EDIT: Didnā€™t read your message properly.

Try commenting it out.

13

I was thinking of using Jam since its more the ā€œHaiku wayā€ (although it seems even most applications for Haiku using the Make build system) and since I wanted to get some more experience with it. Either way, a build system should make the code build faster.

Hee hee. Thatā€™s exactly what I did. Solution to all of lifeā€™s problems :smiley:

14

Well, please comment it, and try to keep it in one file,
because I have absolutely zero experience with jam.

15

Alright, will do :slight_smile:

Oh, by the way, BeMatched now looks exactly like your screenshot looks. No more extra lines that I had to comment out in the python program.

Please send a PR or something.

For BeMatched? It works now because your commit fixed Font.cpp

18

I mean for the ok_msg thing

19

There you go :slight_smile:

I have the basic Jamfile which can build AppKit.so and InterfaceKit.so. Next is to get it to create the soft links to the libraries e.g. Button.so.

Question: Do you prefer to have two separate files AppKit.so and InterfaceKit.so or one big file Be.so? Edit: Or what about individually packaging them, e.g. Button.so is not a symlink but its own file? Or does it not matter which way I do it?
