Stackless Python port for Sony PSP (PSP-Stackless v2.4.4)
Aside from Lua and C++, another programming language that’s also been used for developing PSP homebrew is Python, originally created by Guido van Rossum in 1991. With regards to Python, we’ve just picked up word from programmer Carlos Eduardo that he’s finished work on a PSP port of the Stackless Python programming code.
Stackless Python, for those asking, is described (by the stackless site) as “an enhanced version of the Python programming language. It allows programmers to reap the benefits of thread-based programming without the performance and complexity problems associated with conventional threads.”
The Stackless Python programming code has been successfully used on major projects such as the Eve Online MMORPG.
Getting back on our subject matter, Mr. Eduardo said that he had been inspired by Fraca7’s Python-PSP port of Python 2.4.3 – he used its repository, and merged the Stackless 2.4.4 tag to get this Stackless-PSP port we’re looking at here.
Eduardo further noted that future updates for this first release include a possible port of Python and Stackless 2.5.1. That’s all for the moment – we advise coders inquiring into how to get this release working to head on over to Mr. Eduardo’s blog (source link) for further details.
