CastXML Python Distribution

[MikhailGorobets]

CastXML Python wheels haven't been updated for a while. I submitted a pull request following the instructions, but CircleCI is failing. Is there any way to contact the people who are responsible for this package, please? It seems like they are not responding on the repository page. If they don't have time, I can fix it myself, but the pull request will need to be accepted.

@MikhailGorobets I should be able to address this this week or the following.

The following issues will also be fixed:

• Transition to GitHub Workflows #4

@jcfr Are there any updates?

I am unable to install castxml on aarch64 based Linux (running in a docker container on an M3 Mac, in my case). With pip I get:

$ pip install "castxml>=0.4"
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement castxml>=0.4 (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for castxml>=0.4

and with uv I get:

$ uv pip install -v "castxml>=0.4"

          castxml==0.4.3
          castxml==0.4.5
      and castxml>=0.4.2,<=0.4.3 has no wheels with a matching Python implementation tag, we can conclude that castxml>=0.4,<0.4.3 cannot be used.
      And because castxml==0.4.5 has no wheels with a matching platform tag and you require castxml>=0.4, we can conclude that your requirements are unsatisfiable.

New releases that support aarch64 (arm64) would be really helpful.

Thanks for raising this issue 🙏

We are discussing with the team and will follow-up with an update 🚀

Hello

could it be possible to publish a recent castxml package, supporting aarch64 target so it can also be used on RPI?

https://github.com/CastXML/CastXMLSuperbuild/releases/tag/v0.6.5 works fine, but is not available as python package.

Thanks in advance for your help

So PyPi distribution should be considered deprecated and obsolete?
