Embedded Python via Python/C API

This library provides python functionality in beth by using the 🔗Python/C API .

Install python packages:
- sudo apt install python3-dev
- sudo apt install python3-matplotlib
One can use python3-config for release settings in the makefile:
- python3-config --embed --cflags for compiler flags
  - Additional compiler flags to counteract some undesired python3-config settings: -Wno-sign-compare -Wno-comment
- python3-config --embed --ldflags for linker flags
Debug mode: python3-config does not seem to offer a dedicated debug mode. Workaround: Dissect the returned flags and adapt them to the desired debug settings. Only compiler flags need modifications. Following additional settings work for the current python3 release (might change in future)
- -I/usr/include/python3.10 -fstack-protector-strong

Features and Interfaces

Object Interface: Low level interface for conversions across beth objects and python objects.
