Adding Python bindings for the RFNoC API. This includes the
rfnoc_graph, noc_block_base, and several other supporting classes.
Templated functions are not currently supported. For example,
`rfnoc_graph::get_block` can only return the basic block controller.
This removes the following Boost constructs:
- boost::shared_ptr, boost::weak_ptr
- boost::enable_shared_from_this
- boost::static_pointer_cast, boost::dynamic_pointer_cast
The appropriate includes were also removed. All C++11 versions of these
require #include <memory>.
Note that the stdlib and Boost versions have the exact same syntax, they
only differ in the namespace (boost vs. std). The modifications were all
done using sed, with the exception of boost::scoped_ptr, which was
replaced by std::unique_ptr.
References to boost::smart_ptr were also removed.
boost::intrusive_ptr is not removed in this commit, since it does not
have a 1:1 mapping to a C++11 construct.
With Boost 1.64 to 1.65 (which, of course, Ubuntu LTS ships), the
`PyInit_Libraryname` are invisible when one sets the default visibility
to "hidden" (which is reasonable, and which we do).
- Separating exposed Python data structures into logical sections
- Exposes all of the multi_usrp API
- Adds a layer of Python for documentation and adding helper methods
- Adds improvements and fixes to the MultiUSRP object
- Includes additional exposed data structures (like time_spec_t, etc.)
- Add code to release the Python GIL during long C++ calls
Initial commit of the Python API using Boost.Python. Bind the
MultiUSRP API for use in Python. Bindings intended to provide as
complete coverage as possible.
- Wrap most multi_usrp calls
- Adding multi channel send/recv examples in examples/python
- Adding setuptools support
- Initial attempt at binding the UHD types and filters
