Not in any straight forward way. C++ function pointers need to exist at compile time, while python functions do not exist till runtime.
You might have a few work abounds, depending on use. The most obvious is to hardwire the pointers to known c++ functions that call python functions after some kind of table look up. Another is to create some delegate objects in c++ that have a fnptr data members not exposed to python. Your foo object will then wrap the data members as propertys that take a delegate and extract the fn pointers and visa-versa Implementation is left as an exercise to the student. -----Original Message----- From: cplusplus-sig-bounces+matthew.scouten=tradingtechnologies....@python.org [mailto:cplusplus-sig-bounces+matthew.scouten=tradingtechnologies....@py thon.org] On Behalf Of puneet goel Sent: Tuesday, March 02, 2010 5:10 AM To: cplusplus-sig@python.org Subject: [C++-sig] Boost Python: C++ struct with a function pointer Greetings I am boost.python newbie. I tried searching the web for a solution but could not find one. I am trying to generate Python Bindings for a C++ API. The API has some data structures with a set function pointers as its members. struct foo { public: int a, b; char *str; int (*func1) (); int (*func2) (); }; I am wondering if it is possible to bind this struct to Python. Let me know how this can be done.
