llvm dev - Mar 2012 - [LLVMdev] GSOC2012 idea: Python bindings for LLVM

Hello all,
I notice in previous gsocs of LLVM , there is no projects about language
bindings for LLVM. Does that mean it has lower priority than other
projects? Current python bindings for LLVM in the trunk are far from
complemte. So I would like to improve python bindings for LLVM this summer
if possible. My work will be based on llvm-py project (
http://code.google.com/p/llvm-py/). I obtained consent from Mahadevan, the
author of llvm-py, and he would like to be my mentor, if my proposa is
accepted.  If this idea is feasible, I would write a proposal  next step.
Thanks.*

Please look at the thread "Python bindings in tree" starting on
2012-03-16.
There are at least four Python binding projects currently running. (None of 
them in GSoC)

I think it's a great idea to improve llvm-py, but I'd also suggest to
first
look at the other bindig projects.

Hello

The idea looks great. Please prepare the proposal!

Right. 1 complete bindings are much more preferable than 100 which
are broken at some point.
So, the "consolidation" of all of the bindings should be one side of
this project.
