I’d like to know if it is possible to use ctypes to access C++ DLLs from Python and run functions (or class methods) from them.If not, is there another way to do this?

This question has been answered many times (this one is an exact duplicate!)
In summary, no you can’t do it with Ctypes (yet) but there are a number of other code generators you could use to do the job. SWIG and Boost.Python are two of the most popular.
