Re: [cctbxbb] scitbx without numpy - still supported?

Hmm actually looking cat ./scitbx/array_family/boost_python/numpy_bridge.hpp #include namespace scitbx { namespace af { namespace boost_python { #define SCITBX_LOC(pyname, ElementType) \ boost::python::object \ flex_##pyname##_as_numpy_array( \ ref > const& O, \ bool optional=false); \ \ versa >* \ flex_##pyname##_from_numpy_array( \ boost::python::numeric::array const& arr_obj); SCITBX_LOC(bool, bool) SCITBX_LOC(int, int) SCITBX_LOC(long, long) SCITBX_LOC(float, float) SCITBX_LOC(double, double) #define SCITBX_LOC2 std::complex<double> SCITBX_LOC(complex_double, SCITBX_LOC2) #undef SCITBX_LOC2 SCITBX_LOC(size_t, std::size_t) #undef SCITBX_LOC }}} // namespace scitbx::af::boost_python without so much leaning on preprocessor macros would probably make more sense, in my humble opinion (though is boiler plate) if we were to find a confident C++ expert would people be happy to have it rewritten to fit in with the numpy API in preference to the prehistoric numeric one (which went out like a decade ago?) (wider question) - does seem it would help out C++11 & Rob somewhat Cheers Graeme On 24 Apr 2018, at 21:40, Dr Robert Oeffner mailto:[email protected]> wrote: Yes this must be there same issue. numpy_bridge.hpp is only 27 lines of code. But I think it takes confident C++ expert to rewrite it.

HI Rob I thought this rang a bell: https://github.com/cctbx/cctbx_project/issues/70 This same kind of issue?

I'm making very tiny steps compiling with the VS2017 compiler on Windows which I believe is required for C++11 compliance. So far the problem seems that older versions of boost do not like this compiler and scitbx (or rather numpy_bridge.hpp) do not like newer versions of boost. I guess that if numpy_bridge.hpp was adapted to not #include that would solve the problem.

If there is some refactoring to be done, this principle should be preserved: that Numpy is an optional rather than required dependency. Good to know - some of this code seems a little crusty (and I've found a couple of bugs just trying to verify that it still works correctly). Not sure about the wording in your second sentence. At the time we developed flex, branching was not a code development mechanism we used. Furthermore, not sure why you say Numpy is "exclusively" used in the flex constructors? Certainly there are numerous flex constructors that do not involve Numpy? I meant a code branch e.g. "if", or a preprocessor "#ifdef" in this case. I think I've gotten confused by some of the indirection in the class definitions - the top level only adds the numpy constructor, and then everything else is put in several levels down - and in some of my tests it looked like the numpy routine was mistakenly doing all of the construction (which ended in much the same results).
