zugbruecke for running under linux ? #86

Open stuaxo opened 6 years ago

stuaxo commented 6 years ago

Is there any chance of supporting zugbruecke, it provides a ctypes implementation that uses wine underneath to work on Linux (I guess should work under OSX too) ?

I was not familiar with that project thanks for pointing it out.

zugbruecke is an interesting project, but it is still experimental and at the moment I think supporting zugbruecke is going to greatly increase the maintenance effort. The code/tests will also need to support variations between win32 and wine (see some issues in https://github.com/enthought/pywin32-ctypes/issues/59).

I will however, look into adding plug-in support (as soon as win32ctyps has a more stable api) so that if someone has the time they can independently work on a zugbruecke backend.

Cheers, I only just discovered it 5 minutes after discovering your own project :)
