You are right, Py++ assumes that if you have class hierarchy than you follow simple rules ( at least virtual destructor ). > ...What if I cannot add a virtual function to the class Base? As for me, you should not use/expose such code :-) . More seriously, you will have to show a small and complete example of what you are trying to expose. In any case, without virtual table you can't expect the "desired functionality" to work. -- Roman Yakovenko C++ Python language binding http://www.language-binding.net/ _______________________________________________ Cplusplus-sig mailing list Cplusplus-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cplusplus-sig
