ipr VS PythonNet

I'm not sure about clang or gcc. For VS, u/GabrielDosReis might be able to speak to the .ifc IPR stability/volatility. My wager (deferring to him to correct me) is that the IPR is still changing over time but will stabilize more over time.

Have you had a look at its uses in the IPR interface and implementation? https://github.com/GabrielDosReis/ipr/blob/main/include/ipr/interface

> C++ has virtually zero tooling

CMake, Meson, Waf, Conan, Visual Studio Code, Visual Studio, CLion, Intel VTune, GDB, LLDB, XCode, Artifactory, SonarQube, clang-tidy, clang-format, astyle, Incredibuild...

> Comparing CMake to cargo is like comparing fifth century fireworks to the Space Shuttle

You are wrong here. Cargo serves a set of fixed "this-is-how-to-do-it" thing. In C++ you can build anything. I do not mean it is better, but C++ software already exists and that is the solution that it works better for it. :)

IPR Library

I looked into using .NET as a "backend" and the pythonnet library to bridge the gap, but unfortunately that library does not support async. To properly support it would require some kind of integration with the asyncio event loop APIs or implement the AbstractEventLoop interface and some how make it thread-safe - not even sure that's possible with the API design of asyncio itself.

If you're running the python within C# using Python.NET, then you're somewhat within-process and there are ways of sending the data across. (Return objects, channel/queues, whatever fits your use case.)

I was going to make a joke about Python .NET core .. but .. apparently it's a real thing.

I am not set on .NET, but just curious, so thanks for the suggestions. Interesting that it's billed as cross-plaform, but doesn't do it that well. I just searched 'python wrapper for .net' and found PythonNET. Also, it seems yes IronPython is active.

I created a Django based python project that interfaces to TIA Openness to create some Remote IO. To do this I use the pythonnet library. so that I can load the Openness DLL.
