I am trying to run this on Win32, using Stackless Python 2.6, and Boost

I am having a problem with passing a shared_ptr of a C++ object
implementing a C++ interface to a wrapper of a Python object
implementing a C++ interface.  That's a mouthful, so I thought I'd
simplify the code.  The thing is, I can't seem to get the wrapping
correct.  If I can get this going, I can start adding complication to it
and see what the problem really is.

Basically, I have an interface that works with itself for communicating
stuff.  There is a C implementation of it, and a Python implementation
of it.  I have to write a wrapper.  The Python implementation can
communicate with instances of the C implementation, but not vice versa.
  When the C implementation calls the Python one, I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: No to_python (by-value) converter found for C++ type: class
boost::shared_ptr<class Communicatable>

The magic call is in the python script.

I have done similar wrappers like this before so I'm just befuddled
about why this time it hates me.  The shared_ptrs are part of the larger
problem I'm trying to reproduce, so I want to incorporate them into this
test program.  In the larger program, while doing a get_override() call
on a wrapper to an interface, I get a segfault inside the Python DLLs
while it tries to convert the shared_ptr.  The last line I can see i
shared_ptr_to_python.hpp:

         return converter::registered<shared_ptr<T>
const&>::converters.to_python(&x);

That's what I am eventually hoping to reproduce by shooting back and
forth all this stuff.


If I understand your intend correctly, I think your class_ definition needs to be:

class_<Communicable,shared_ptr<CommunicableWrapper>,noncopyable>

(right now you have class_<CommunicableWrapper,...>)
