Hilbert space-filling curve library

Derivative-free Global Optimization Using Space-filling Curves

Hilbert Curve

C++ implementation of Space-filling curve ...

• based on: [John Skilling] [link]
• [insert algo/psuedo code]
• explanation for wrapper usage

Requirements

Setup

MS Visual Studio (2013 and above) settings:

1. Go to Project > Hilbert Properties... > Configuration Properties. With All Configurations:

   • Chose VC++ Directories setting. Append $(PYTHONPATH)\include to Include Directories for the Python header file <Python.h> and append $(PYTHONPATH)\libs to Library Directories for the linker library file pythonXX.lib or pythonXX_d.lib.
   • Choose General settings and in Project Defaults, change Configuration Type to 'Dynamic Library (.dll)'.
   • Under General settings, change Target Extension to '.pyd'.
     
     Only for Debug Configuration:
   • Under General settings, change Target Name to $(ProjectName)_d.

2. Chose either Release or Debug under Solution Configurations. Note that for Debug mode, you need to have Python debug binaries downloaded first (requires VS 2015 or later).

Run

1. With Release configuration, Build Visual Studio project.
   From CMD, run dir Hilbert\Release to locate Hilbert.pyd file.
   Example commands in test.py.

   cd Hilbert\Hilbert
   python test.py

2. For Debug mode, steps are similar as above. Hilbert_d.pyd file will be created under Hilbert\Debug and you may use the pythonXX_d.exe interpreter instead.
3. [how to call/use wrapper]
