An object-oriented approach to scenario support in optics CAD systems

This article discusses the problems of supporting Python scripts in an actively developing interactive graphics system. Such support is a time-consuming task, which difficult to automate general case. As solution this problem, we propose approach that allows developers combine creation new system components with simultaneous embedding scripting without writing redundant additional code. The result user-friendly object-oriented API describes all aspects interaction between and scripts. Scripts using can be used modeling automation as well extend custom extension classes. latter especially important it leaves ability for ordinary users closed-source systems on their own.
