Here is my example: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CPP Code: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #include <boost/python.hpp> using namespace boost::python;
void updateDoubleReference(double& x) { x = x + 5.4321; } BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(_testDR) { // Add regular functions to the module. def("updateDoubleReference", &updateDoubleReference ); } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PY Code: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #!/usr/bin/python # # from _testDR import * x = 3.0 updateDoubleReference(x) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ERROR OUTPUT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- python2.5 testDR.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "testDR.py", line 8, in <module> updateDoubleReference(x) Boost.Python.ArgumentError: Python argument types in _testDR.updateDoubleReference(float) did not match C++ signature: updateDoubleReference(double {lvalue}) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How do people typically handle this issue? Wrap the function with 'float' versions of the arguments? I tried to create a 'NativeDouble' struct that had a double member attribute but when exposed to python, it simply interprets this as a float and it still has a mismatch. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
