Hi,
as always, your support is plain awesome!
See below for a follow-up-question:
the subject pretty much says it all. I upgraded to the latest SIP
because I experienced a strange endless-loop-kind of behavior in the
4.7.* I had before, and now my building bails out with the
sip: Unsupported type argument to type2string()
error message.
You can find the mercurial repository at
https://bitbucket.org/deets/irrsinn/
Any ideas?
Two changes in tonight's snapshot...
...to fix the type2string() problem
...to detect recursive class hierarchies - it's now obvious what's causing
your looping.
Great, I've been bitten by that before - but this time there was quite a
bit of time between altering the source, and trying to compile it again,
so I forgot.
You also have a couple of syntax errors - forgetting the // around
annotations.
Yep, saw these - it was the first time I was using them anyway, and thus
I hadn't the syntax down.
And the reason I started with them is that I have a
memory-management-issue that is beyond my current understanding.
The library I'm wrapping employs it's own refcounting-scheme. The calls
"grab" and "drop" are used to in- and decrease the refcounter.
Now this leaves me with the problem that
- when I drop() an object, it get's garbage-collected by C++ - but
Python keeps a reference, and will of course attempt to de-allocate the
object again.
- when I *don't* drop(), and the object is GC'ed by python, there
should be an implicit drop() called. I don't see a special method
"__del__" which I could use to do that.
So - any suggestions how to tie these two memory-management-systems
together?
Diez
