Native api scripting behavior flexibility?

[SCollins]

native c++ behavior like a scripting language, as flexible as python, but with native apis and performance of c/c++ executables.

is something like this possible ? especially using opengl ??

[PeterW]

There are techniques to make interpretation fast. But scripts can never be as fast as a C/C++ executable.

Are there any features that make Python more flexible than C++?

Haiku API in Python with PyBind11

I really wanted to have native Python apps on Haiku and after looking at some Python-Haiku bindings, I couldn’t find anything mature enough. So I started experimenting with Cython and PyBind11 (both tools already packaged). After some work, my conclusion is that PyBind11 is better. With some work I get an app running, showing an button that responds to events: [PyHaiku] app.py code: from haiku import BApplication, BWindow, BRect, BMessage, BView, BButton, window_type class Window(BWindow):…

Probably you can find something useful here

Excluding python, don’t want to rely on it at all.

[SCollins]

that’s what I’m asking, or is HEY a suitable substitute

[zuMi]

an attempt to bind Haiku’s API to LUA was made, but it seems an abandoned project

[PeterW]

I don’t see why Python is more flexible than C++.

What you are looking for is impossible imho.

I can’t find a programming language named Hey.

“Hey” is a shell command in Haiku. It allows interprocess communication.

[PeterW]

OK, thanks. That’s a nice thing but doesn’t replace Python, C++ or whatever.

i wasn’t insisting that such a thing did exist, but it probably should
