Use templates for code generation utilities #44

Closed mivade closed 2 years ago

mivade commented 8 years ago

The code generation files (for FORTRAN in particular) are rather difficult to grok due to lots of multi-line docstrings that break the normal Pythonic indentation flow. At the expense of an extra dependency such as Jinja2, this could be cleaned up considerably.

I don't know enough about what is going on here to want to try to take this on, so this is more of a suggestion than a bug.

The code generators are more of a proof of concept. Are you using the Fortran generator (or just kicking the tires so to speak)?

mivade commented 8 years ago

I don't actually use it. This was just an issue I noticed while going through the code.

HDF5 API code generation from HDF5/JSON is not supported so closing this issue.
