This patch simplifies the way of how Genode's base libraries are organized. Originally, the base API was implemented in the form of many small libraries such as 'thread', 'env', 'server', etc. Most of them used to consist of only a small number of files. Because those libraries are incorporated in any build, the checking of their inter-dependencies made the build process more verbose than desired. Also, the number of libraries and their roles (core only, non-core only, shared by both core and non-core) were not easy to capture. Hereby, the base libraries have been reduced to the following few libraries: - startup.mk contains the startup code for normal Genode processes. On some platform, core is able to use the library as well. - base-common.mk contains the parts of the base library that are identical by core and non-core processes. - base.mk contains the complete base API implementation for non-core processes Consequently, the 'LIBS' declaration in 'target.mk' files becomes simpler as well. In the most simple case, only the 'base' library must be mentioned. Fixes #18 |

This directory contains a sample python interpreter called 'test-python'. When building this test program, a shared library 'python.lib.so' will be generated. This library is based on the original code of Python-2.6.4 available from the Python website. :Python website: [http://www.python.org] Usage ----- Call 'make prepare' from within the 'libports' directory. Add 'libports' to your build.conf file. A sample Genode configuration is provided with the 'python.run' script located at 'libports/run/'. It starts a Python script can be found within this directory. If you are not using Linux as a Genode base platform, do not forget to add 'python.lib.so' to your boot module list. Limitations ----------- Currently, this Python port does not feature any standard modules or the import of any modules from a Python script.
