[GRASS-dev] access to grass (trunk 7.0.svn ) vector map from python

[Fernando Pacheco]

Everything works correctly now, the problem has been fixed.
I think the interface generated automatically with ctypesgen (like that of
SWIG) isn't  attractive for inexperienced developers. It works very well and
is fast, but the calls to the functions are complex (logically identical to
those of C) and is not what an average developer would expect in Python.
In the coming months we will be developing an interface for finite element
modeling (Fenics project=Dolfin, Tritetmesh, etc.). We will start by making
access to vector layers with Python more friendly, taking as a starting
point what has been generated with ctypesgen. Thank you. Greetings.
Fernando.
