I think all you need to do is add .enable_pickling() to your Boost.Python wrapper and def __getinitargs__(self): return (x,y,z) to your subclass. You could also use __getstate__, __setstate__, but I'd try to work with just __getinitargs__ first.

I want to pickle some python subclasses of a C++ base. The C++ base does not have any state, it is just an interface. Is there an easy way to ask the python pickling machinery to ignore the C++ base? I'm not sure if I should use the boost.python pickling support or go directly down the route described at http://docs.python.org/library/pickle.html#pickling-and-unpickling-extension-types Thanks, John. _______________________________________________ Cplusplus-sig mailing list Cplusplus-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cplusplus-sig _______________________________________________ Cplusplus-sig mailing list Cplusplus-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cplusplus-sig
