Hello Phil,
I'm busy working on integrating Python with Plasma in KDE 4. The API for
doing network distributed applets is a bit convoluted, there is a lot of
delegation of methods calls to other objects. I've hit a part where it
would be really handy if I could call protected methods on objects which
were not created by Python itself. SIP appears to explicitly prevent
this kind of access, although I've commented out the check in
getComplexCppPtr() and it appears to work fine.
* Is there a technical reason why this is forbidden? or is it more
philosophical?
* I would like an official way in SIP to call protected
methods/functions regardless of where the object came from. Perhaps,
just a way to "unlock" an instance making all of its method available.
Is this possible?
cheers,
