I've been looking at pybindgen and have a simple question -- why do
the container wrappers not implement more of the python container
interface? For instance, you can expose the std::vector<int> like so:
vecint = mod.add_container("std::vector<int>", "int",
"vector", custom_name="vector_of_int")
The resulting type won't let you take the length with "len" or index
into the instances with []. I would naively think maybe I could add
these methods as appropriate to types using "add_method" like the
following:
vecint.add_method("size", "int", [], custom_name = "__len__")
but because "Container" does not inherit from "CppClass" I don't see
how to easily extend the container in this manner. Is there a deep
reason these things are this way?
Thanks!
Mike.
