This book for practitioners is about software interoperability in a Windows environment from C++ to languages such as C#, R, and Python. Using a series of example projects, the book demonstrates how to connect a simple C++ codebase packaged as a static or dynamic library to modern clients written in C#, R, and Python. The book shows you how to develop the in-between components that allow disparate languages to communicate. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book addresses a fundamental question in software design: given an existing C++ codebase, how does one go about connecting that codebase to clients written in C#, R, and Python? How is the C++ functionality exposed to these clients? One answer may be to rewrite the existing codebase in the target language. This is rarely, if ever, feasible and this book's goal is to save you the pain and the high cost of throwing out valuable existing code by showing you how to make that older code function alongside and with the more modern languages that are commonly in use today. The knowledge you will gain from reading this book will help you broaden your architectural choices and take advantage of the growing amount of talent around newer languages. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat You Will Learn\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuild components that connect C++ to other languages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTranslate between the C++ type system and the type systems of C#, R, and Python\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWrite a managed assembly targeting the .NET framework\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCreate C++ packages for use in R\/Studio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDevelop Python modules based on high-performance C++ code\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOvercome the difficulties and pitfalls involved in cross-language development\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWho This Book Is For\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSoftware developers who are looking for ways to extend existing systems written in C++ using modern languages.
