Hi all,
I read on the Boost.Python FAQ that for Mac OSX users, the library is currently known only to work with the GCC compiler. Thus far, I have been using clang++. I will make the switch, so long that it does increase my odds of encountering difficulties down the road.
What do we think here? In the context of front-end dev in Python for a C++ application, is Boost.Python worth making the switch from clang++ to gcc? Would I be better off using something else (i.e. wxPython)?
I really love using Boost (I've found use for Test, Signals2, and Asio), but I don't want to let my Boost bias lead me to make a poor choice.
I know this question is a tad subjective; I apologize for that. I would like the Python extension to be as seamless as possible, and I am only going to be using Python for front-end code. The interface between the two would likely be with sockets.
I am sure I could answer this myself via experimentation, but I wanted to get a feel from the Boost community before doing so.
Thanks in advance!
