> Subject: [PULL REQUEST babeltrace] Python bindings update
> 
> Hi all,
> 
> Here are some patches to add read support of every CTF type using the
> Babeltrace Python bindings. It is now possible to retrieve fields and
> access their values using a single get_value() method returning native
> Python objects. This is made possible using the work contributed by
> one of our GSoC students, Xiaona Han.
> 
> These patches also make it possible to generate CTF from Python code,
> based on the CTF Writer API that was merged recently.

Merged into bindings/python branch. Please let me know if I should merge these into master.

Thanks,

Mathieu
