Subject: none Bcc: "Jeremy H. Brown" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Package: swig Version: 1.3.22-5
When generating for python, the wrapper for a method which returns a const C++ object by value creates a SwigValueWrapper templatized on the const return type. However, later in the method it casts the SwigValueWrapper to the return type minus the const qualifier; without the const, the cast operator isn't used, and instead things just break (typically with a segfault.) More detail on this bug, including example code, is available here: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=1645&atid=101645&func=detail&aid=899332 A patch that fixes it is here: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=301645&aid=903150&group_id=1645 For me, either catching up with the upstream release or applying this patch and reving the Debian version would really improve things.
