Loading C language code using python (ctypes)

① Create a C Language file

cfun.c

int product(int a, int b) {
return a * b;
}

② Compile it and create a shared library file

gcc -o hxxlib.so --shared -fPIC cfun.c

 

③ stay python File using the generated shared library file

from ctypes import *
c_file = 'hxxlib.so'
c_fun = CDLL(c_file)
a = 2
b = 5
print(c_fun.product(a,b))
