py-cpp-demangle: Demangles C++ linker symbols

A package for demangling C++ linker symbol strings

This package provides python bindings for the rust crate cpp_demangle <http://github.com/gimli-rs/cpp_demangle>_ by building a native Python extension using PyO3 <https://github.com/pyO3/pyO3>_.

This is mainly an experiment in creating python extensions in Rust. A blog post about this is here. <https://www.benfrederickson.com/writing-python-extensions-in-rust-using-pyo3/>_

Usage

To install

.. code-block:: python

pip install cpp-demangle

Building from source requires the nightly version of the rust compiler.

This module exposes a single function that transforms C++ linker symbols to a human readable representation.

.. code-block:: python

from cpp_demangle import demangle

print(demangle('_ZN7mangled3fooEd'))
# prints 'mangled::foo(double)'
