Re: epicsv4 python interface

[Shen, G. <sh...@bn...>]

Hi James,
Yes, both server and client side of MASAR are using Python/C API.
One major reason is because the uncertainty of whole pvData project.
I did not find an automatic code generating tool to track the API updating,
which means I have to do it for each module separately.

However, our user is expecting it soon, and of course they need a stable version.

There are some other reasons for example, I have to build all modules against boost
library for std::tr, but not the major.

I am still expecting boost::python can be our solution for Python interface. Any idea?
