    demo_dynamic.py                                     v2b

    This program demonstrates Python's use of the dynamic
    language support additions to LTC, namely access to LTC
    constants, struct and union sizes, and the binding of a
    math package to LTC.  Also provided are simple code
    fragments to illustrate how one might write a Python
    wrapper for LTC and how an app might call the wrapper.
    This or a similar model should work for Ruby and other
    dynamic languages.

    This instance uses Python's ctypes and requires a single
    .dylib linking together LTC and a math library.  Building
    a single .dylib is needed because LTC wants a fairly tight
    relationship between itself and the mathlib.  (ctypes can
    load multiple .dylibs, but it does not support this level
    of tight coupling between otherwise independent libraries.)

    My .dylib was created on OSX/macOS with the following:
        sudo make -j5 -f makefile.shared                        \
            CFLAGS="-DUSE_TFM -DTFM_DESC -I/usr/local/include"  \
            EXTRALIBS=/usr/local/lib/libtfm.a  install

    For python 2.7.12 on Ubuntu Xenial the following worked for
    me (without MPI support):
        sudo make -f makefile.shared install PREFIX="/usr"

    Reminder: you don't need to bind in a math library unless
              you are going to use LTC functions that need a
              mathlib.  For example, public key crypto requires
              a mathlib; hashing and symmetric encryption do not.

    This code was written for Python 2.7 with the ctypes standard
    library.
