Hi Detlev Thanks for the answer.

The python program did call an incorrect definition of the overloaded function. Debugging with gdb and setting a breakpoint at setSamples did not help because the program didn't stop there. After having removed the the setSamples definition with integer in its definition, the program works nicely. But I am still interested in being able to know what definition of an overloaded function is called from python but I don't know how to do it. How does the TypeError above occur since gdb doesn't break at the function called and the eric debugger doesn't show how it occurs either? Regards Gudjon
