In fact

  • that stuff is alpha quality and I improve and refactor it quite often;
  • some parts, like postprocessors will be heavily refactored in future;
  • it has some security (not a very severe ones) and performance issues (there is a backend in which they have been resolved, but there is a legal issue in it called GNU GPL v3 because it calls directly into KSC)
  • kaitaiStructCompile.setuptools has an issue that it is executed when setup is called, not when actual building is done. It is mainly a setuptools issue: setuptools doesn't have all the needed facilities to insert a stage;

..., but I still use it in all my project using Kaitai-generated parsers.

Feel free to fork and contribute.
