OC to call Python functions

Support calling Python functions from Origin C code

OC supports calling Python functions. By default the py file should be placed in the same folder as the c/cpp or XF file, and the name of the py file has to be origin.py.
To change that, you need to

1. to change working directory

Python.OCWD$;//OC Working Directory

2. to change file name(independent of 1)

Python.OCWF$;//OC Working Filename

ORG-21996

Labtalk LT to call python functions

Support calling Python functions from Labtalk script

LT supports calling Python functions. By default the py file should be placed in the User Files Folder with name labtalk.py. Call function with syntax

aa = py.myfunc(x,y)

We can also specify the file name, for example, signal_utils.py, then we can call the function by

aa = py.signal_utils.myfunc(x,y)

Also, you can change the default working directory and default file name by following command,

Python.LTWD$;//LT Working Directory
Python.LTWF$;//LT Working Filename

To call Python function in the attached py file in the project, use the py.@ syntax.

aa = py.@myfunc(x,y) //if there is a single attached py file
aa = py.@filename.myfunc(x,y) //if there are multiple attached py files, use filename

By default, when calling Python function in LabTalk and Column Formula, function argument is assumed to be list of float, and this can be controlled by system variable @PYFV (Default is 3).

Also, you can specify the argument and return type with function annotations.

def f2(a:float, b=1)->float:
    return a+b

An alternative to specify argument and return type is to use docstring, which is more important when function is used in column formula.

f = float
F = list of float
s = str
S = list of str
i = int

ORG-22239

Show Python print immediately

Python print() function now output result immediately when executed

Added a system variable @PYO to control if show Python print immediately for Embedded Python.

import PyOrigin as po
print('before')
po.LT_execute('typ hi')
print('after')

if @PYO=1, will output as

before
hi
after

if @PYO=0, will output as
