Accessing the python interpreter output

jakab_gabor

Dear all,

I'm trying to use the Python Result Object (CPython interpreter) to define properties (scoping, user-defined inputs) for a custom evaluation algorithm.

I'm having difficulties with defining these properties: if the reload_props function inside is not flawless, it simply won't run and debugging is almost impossible. The only way I know of to export/print some information from the interpreter run is writing messages in the log file using e.g. ExtAPI.Log.WriteMessage("Hello World!") which is a tedious work and makes development painful.

My quiestion is: is there a way to add logging or printing or whatever to redirect the interpreter output to a file so debugging becomes possible?

To anwer my own question: probably the best way is to switch to the CPython interpreter. On 2026R1 this is version 3.10 so fairly modern. This allows for using modules like logging, inspect, traceback… you can put your own modules in the site-packages directory so with some custom code detailed outputs are possible.
