#2748: ctype.POINTER function overloading prevents automatic byref() conversion
----------------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: artegion | Owner: grass-dev@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: Python ctypes | Version: 7.0.1
Resolution: | Keywords:
CPU: Unspecified | Platform: Unspecified
----------------------------+-------------------------
Comment (by artegion):
Not a real problem, just a bit disappointing: python ctypes documentation
describes an interesting feature but our code presents a different
behavior (it is far more pythonic do not care about byreference/byvalue if
ctypes can do the dirty work).
The odd thing is that happens unnoticed: while ctypes raises exceptions
passing wrong argument type in this case only function return code (or
segmentation fault exception) reveals troubles.
