用C语言扩展Python的示例

/**
 * @file ngm_module.c
 *
 */

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <Python.h>

#define NGM_FACT \
    "ngm_fact(number) -> integer\n\n" \
    "Return a factorial of an integer\n"

int ngm_fact(int n)
{
    if (n <= 1) {
        return 1;
    }
    else {
        return n * ngm_fact(n - 1);
    }
}

static PyObject *wrap_ngm_fact(PyObject *self, PyObject *args)
{
    int n = 0;
    int result = 0;

    if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "i:ngm_fact", &n)) {
        return NULL;
    }

    result = ngm_fact(n);

    return Py_BuildValue("i", result);
}

static PyMethodDef methods[] = {
    {"ngm_fact", *(PyCFunction)wrap_ngm_fact, METH_VARARGS | METH_KEYWORDS, NGM_FACT},
    {NULL, NULL}
};

void initngm(void)
{
    PyObject *m = NULL;

    m = Py_InitModule("ngm", methods);
}

编译参数：

gcc -Wall -O2 -fPIC -shared ngm_module.c -o ngm.so -I/usr/include/python2.6 -L/usr/lib -lpython2.6 -Wl,-R/usr/lib

使用示例：

>>> import ngm
>>> ngm.ngm_fact(5)
120
