Re: [Help-glpk] [Fwd: PyGLPK or python-glpk]

[Nigel Galloway]

Kevin,

You may wish to try building the bindings using SWIG, see:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-glpk/2007-05/msg00076.html

and

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-glpk/2009-03/msg00023.html

SWIG is well documented and included with most recent linux distributions. It 
is the technology used for glpk-java. Unfortuanately the files I used for 
Python are no longer on the web. but they can be recovered and I will assist 
you if you find difficulties.

The only difficulty I have experienced is that 'in' and 'out' are reseved words 
in Python and glpk uses them as procedure names. SWIG has a default work around 
for this.

Good Luck

Nigel
