Well, I seem to have found a solution. Instead of passing the pointer in
the call to the bp::override I wrap it back up in a ref_ptr, i.e.:
struct CallbackWrap : Callback, bp::wrapper<Callback>
{
void execute(Thing* t)
{
if (bp::override ovr = this->get_override("execute"))
{
ref_ptr<Thing> t_ref = t;
ovr(t_ref);
}
else
Callback::execute(t);
}
void default_execute(Thing* t) { this->Callback::execute(t); }
};
