python中自定义函数的调用_Python CTYPE：在C中使用自定义类型调用函数

I'm trying to wrap pre-existing c code for use in Python in Linux. I have little experience with c, and I'm currently approaching this problem using ctypes. My C function requires a 2d array with custom type entries and I don't know how to recreate this in python to pass it to the c function.

Here is the function I'm attempting to call:

void usbBuildGainTableAI_USB1808(libusb_device_handle *udev, Calibration_AIN table[NCHAN_1808][NGAINS_1808])

{

int i, j;

uint16_t address = 0x7000; // base address of ADC calibration coefficients.

for (i = 0; i < NCHAN_1808; i++) {

for (j = 0; j < NGAINS_1808; j++) {

usbMemAddressW_USB1808(udev, address);

usbMemoryR_USB1808(udev, (uint8_t *) &table[i][j].slope, sizeof(float));

address += 4;

usbMemAddressW_USB1808(udev, address);

usbMemoryR_USB1808(udev, (uint8_t *) &table[i][j].offset, sizeof(float));

address += 4;

}

}

return;

}

The header file has defined

typedef struct Calibration_AIN_t {

float slope;

float offset;

} Calibration_AIN;

where NCHAN_18081 and NGAINS_1808 are constants and udev is an integer. I've followed an older question regarding multidimensional arrays and attempted to make a structure like the one in the c code.

_1808 = CDLL(os.path.abspath("lib1808.so"))

NCHAN_1808 = 8 # max number of A/D channels in the device

NGAINS_1808 = 4 # max number of gain levels

class Calibration_AIN(Structure):

_fields_ = [("slope", c_float), ("offset", c_float)]

class AINarray(Structure):

_fields_ = [("array", (Calibration_AIN() * NCHAN_1808) * NGAINS_1808)]

table_AIN = AINarray()

_1808.usbBuildGainTableAI_USB1808(udev, table_AIN)

But there's a couple problems with this: the custom type Calibration_AIN can't be populated in an array with the operator * like an int or float can, and I can't pass a custom type through to c. I've also tried making the array with a list of lists in Python, but I can't convert that to anything useful to c passable through ctypes.

How can I call this function from python without modifying the c code? Any help would be much appreciated, and also let me know if I should just learn c and try to write my program in c or Cython. Ctypes may not be the best way of doing this.

The line:

_fields_ = [("array", (Calibration_AIN() * NCHAN_1808) * NGAINS_1808)]

should raise a TypeError, since you instantiate Calibration_AIN. I believe that what you meant was:

_fields_ = [("array", (Calibration_AIN * NCHAN_1808) * NGAINS_1808)]

But even so, you don't need the AINarray wrapper. According to [Python]: Arrays, you could do something like:

Calibration_AIN_Table = (Calibration_AIN * NCHAN_1808) * NGAINS_1808

and then, in order to initialize an instance do smth like:

>>> cat = Calibration_AIN_Table()

>>> for i in range(NGAINS_1808):

... for j in range(NCHAN_1808):

... cat[i][j].slope = i * j

... cat[i][j].offset = i * i * j

...

>>> cat[2][3].slope
