Using OpenPACE in C/C++

The OpenPACE API documentation has all details of the native C/C++ interface.

Here we have a small example in C:

Using OpenPACE in Python

Python bindings must be configured with --enable-python. They depend on SWIG and Python.

In case of a non-standard installation of OpenPACE you might – in addition to LD_LIBRARY_PATH – also need to setup the PYTHONPATH environment variable.

Here is a sample script that shows how OpenPACE is accessed from Python:

Have a look at the Emulator for the German Identity Card 3 for a more complex project that uses the Python Interface from OpenPACE.

Unfortunately, OpenPACE’s Python bindings are currently poorly documented.

New in version 0.8: The SWIG bindings from pyPACE 1 have been integrated into OpenPACE.
