Hello, I try to wrap a class with a function info([int arg]) that takes either zero or one argument (exact colde below). For some reason I can't get BOOST_PYTHON_MEMBER_FUNCTION_OVERLOADS to work.
The examples at http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_39_0/libs/python/doc/tutorial/doc/html/python/functions.html#python.overloading and http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_39_0/libs/python/doc/v2/overloads.html#BOOST_PYTHON_FUNCTION_OVERLOADS-spec only show the situation where either - the *member* function has up to three arguments with default values assigned or - three *free* functions have one to three arguments. I don't find an example where a class has several *member* functions with the same name, that take a variable number of (non-default!) arguments. My attempt below gives the error "pytest.cpp:17: error: no matching function for call to ‘boost::python::class_<A, boost::python::detail::not_specified, boost::python::detail::not_specified, boost::python::detail::not_specified>::def(const char [5], <unresolved overloaded function type>, A_info_overloads)’" Do I have to replace the ".def("info",&A::info, ..." with something like ".def("foo", (void(*)(int,int))0, ..." as shown in the Auto-Overloading section in the tutorial? If yes, how must this function signature look like? It doesn't work like this. Hope someone can help Hans === pytest.py === #include <boost/python.hpp> #include <stdio.h> using namespace boost::python; class A{ public: void info() {printf("This is an A\n");} void info(int arg) {printf("Unnecessary arg.\n");} }; BOOST_PYTHON_MEMBER_FUNCTION_OVERLOADS(A_info_overloads, info, 0,1) BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(test) { class_<A>("A") .def("info",&A::info,A_info_overloads()) //line 17 ; } _______________________________________________ Cplusplus-sig mailing list Cplusplus-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cplusplus-sig
