The python-typeutils library principally provides a typechecker decorator that allows for a Q&D, and extensible way of checking whether the arguments to a Python functiois are the right type.

While this flies in the face of all the talk of dynamic typing in Python, it can come in quite handy when wrapping C functions. And it gets rid of the requirement of having to write asserts if you do need type checking.I

WHAT DOES python-typeutils PRODUCE

  1. The python files in /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages (by default)
  2. Doxygenated documentation in /usr/share/docs/python-typeutils (refman.pdf)
