NAME
Pyste - Boost.Python code generator
SYNOPSIS
pyste [options] interface-files
DESCRIPTION
Pyste is a Boost.Python code generator. The user specifies the classes and functions to be exported using a simple interface file which, following the Boost.Python's philosophy, is simple Python code. Pyste then uses GCCXML to parse all the headers and extract the necessary information to automatically generate C++ code.
- --module=<name>
-
The name of the module that will be generated; defaults to the first interface filename, without the extension.
- -I <path>
-
Add an include path
- -D <symbol>
-
Define symbol
- --multiple
-
Create various cpps, instead of only one (useful during development)
- --out=<name>

Specify output filename (default: <module>.cpp) in --multiple mode, this will be a directory
- --no-using
-
Do not declare "using namespace boost"; use explicit declarations instead
- --pyste-ns=<name>
-
Set the namespace where new types will be declared; default is the empty namespace
- --debug
-
Writes the xml for each file parsed in the current directory
- --cache-dir=<dir>
-
Directory for cache files (speeds up future runs)
- --only-create-cache
-
Recreates all caches (doesn't generate code).
- --generate-main
-
Generates the _main.cpp file (in multiple mode)
- --file-list
-
A file with one pyste file per line. Use as a substitute for passing the files in the command line.
- --gccxml-path=<path>
-
Path to gccxml executable (default: gccxml)
- --no-default-include
