Data conversion between Python scipy and numpy and SKILL

Manu88

Hello all,

I'm new  programmer of SKILL and wanted to ask if it is possible to stream data between scipy and numpy library operations from python (like vector and Matrix operations ) and SKILL codes  and vice versa.
I already implmented succefully the IPC solution on the Forum post:

but I Need to Interface the 2 languages on a much larger scale of data

thanks in advance

  • The only real ways to do it are either by sending stuff through the IPC links that you've found about, or better still for large volumes of data would be to write temporary files in (say) /dev/shm (or /tmp if /dev/shm not available) which are usually a memory file system on Linux. Then via IPC you can tell the other side to read that file. Generally that's more successful than trying to transfer large amounts of data directly via the IPC mechanism. Sometimes you can have challenges with buffer overflow if the other side is not consuming the data fast enough.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
