Python support?

Post by vgramkris » Sat 21. Aug 2021, 17:34

On checking the pcan-uds documentation, it says python is not supported. Is there any plans to support python in the future for uds like pcan-basic?

Yes, this is true. Main cause for this is that Python is used for multi-platform programming and, unlike PCAN-Basic, the APIs PCAN-ISO-TP and PCAN-UDS are not implemented on Linux. To avoid misunderstandings we just do not offer a Python header file for these APIs.

Even though we haven't abandoned the idea of offering a header file for Python, we currently have no concrete plans to do so, though this may change in the near future. If you need/want to program UDS on Python, you will need to write a Python wrapper by your own.
