PyTGE (also PyTSE) - Python Bindings

Quote:This is a new TGE/TSE (and probably TGB) Python binding I have been working on. You can do with it what you like.

I don't have any time to document it. Though, the source file is only 16k, so it should be pretty clear.

I've also included a diff of source changes. They should be pretty close to the current HEAD revision.

You need to change your build target to a shared library (a dll on windows, also change to multithreaded dll code generation for this platform)

[b]#--- TSE Python Module Example ---[/b]

[b]#TSE as a standard Python extension (no longer a executable)[/b]
import pytse

[b]#initialize pytse, this also executes main.cs and the .cs packages[/b]
pytse.initialize()

[b]#example of executing a script file[/b]
f = file("myscript.cs","rb")
script = f.read()
f.close()
pytse.evaluate(script)

[b]#or, just generate the cs code right inside Python![/b] 
pytse.evaluate("""
new GuiBitmapButtonCtrl(MyButton) {
 profile = "GuiButtonProfile";
 horizSizing = "right";
 vertSizing = "bottom";
 position = "404 361";
 extent = "285 85";
 minExtent = "8 2";
 visible = "1";
 text = "Button";
 groupNum = "-1";
 buttonType = "PushButton";
 bitmap = "./button";
 helpTag = "0";
};""")

[b]#it's easy to grab a reference to the button we created[/b]
button = TSEObject("MyButton")

[b]#buttons are kind of worthless without commands.  Let's make one:[/b]
def OnMyButton(value):
    print "Button pushed with value",value
    
[b]#export the function to the console system in much the same way the C++ system does...
#we also support optional namespaces, usage documentation, and min/max args[/b]
pytse.export(OnMyButton,"MyButton","OnButton","Example button command",1,1)

[b]#we can get and set fields (including dynamic fields).  We'll set our button's command:[/b]
button.command = "MyButton::OnButton(42);"

[b]#we can call console methods on our TSEObjects... So, let's simulate a button click.  
#the OnMyButton function will be called with the value 42 :)[/b]
button.performClick()

[i]#note that getting an object reference to the button and setting the command like this is 
purely for illustration. You can also: command = "MyButton::OnButton(42);" in the evaluated code.[/i]

[b]#moving on, we can get and set global variables[/b]
pytse.setglobal("$MyVariable",42)
print pytse.getglobal("$MyVariable")
pytse.evaluate('echo ("*** Here is your variable:" @ $MyVariable);')

[b]#the main loop is broken out and can be combined with other frameworks rather easily[/b]
while pytse.tick():
    pass

[b]#cleanup pytse.. goodbye![/b]
pytse.shutdown()
