Embedding PyPy in C/C++

gistfile1.txt

call rpython_startup_code(); for initializing

call pypy_setup_home(char *home, int debug); for setting the python home (returns non-zero on error, you can call it multiple times until it succeed)

call pypy_execute_source(char *code); execute the python code (IMPORTANT: GIL is still not set here)

call pypy_init_threads(); initialize GIL

finally call pypy_thread_attach(); in each additional pthread you need to register to python (this function is not thread safe, you should call it under a mutex)
