Not sure what you're doing here. It looks like you are being passed
an object of a given type, then you get the type object, call it to
create another object of that type, and assign it to object-instance.
...and the Python module contains:
class MenuProviderTest(nautilus.MenuProvider):
def __init__(self):
print From Python: %s % self
try:
print getattr(self, super_happy_magic)
except AttributeError:
print Didn't work!
When the MenuProviderTest is created, the output is:
nautilus_python_object_instance_init called
Setting magic parameter
From C: MenuProvTest.MenuProviderTest object at 0x7faee6a9fcd0
Result: 0
From Python: MenuProvTest.MenuProviderTest object at 0x7faee6a9fcd0
Didn't work!
(I've tried getattr and self.super_happy_magic, with the same effect.)
Where am I going wrong?
You are assigning the attirbute the the object that the C code refers
to as object-instance, but it seems that in the Python snippet you
are calling getattr on the object that the C code refers to as
object.

Sorry, I should have noted that the NautilusPythonObject type in the
code is a struct defined as:
struct _NautilusPythonObject {
GObject parent_slot;
PyObject *instance;
};

object-instance is the PyObject, and I gathered that it was the
correct thing to assign to from the fact that the address is identical
as seen from C and Python.

We'd have to see more code, I'd think. What you posted needs more
context. For instance, what type, exactly, is class-type? This
would help us understand better.
I don't understand how object-instance and self could be the same
object. If they have the same address it's possible (and, I'm
inclined to think, likely) that you're creating an object, it's
getting destroyed, then you are creating another one.
Here's what's really odd. You are calling getattr(self,
super_happy_magic) inside __init__, which is the class's
initializer. How could you have had occasion to call
PyObject_SetAttrString on that same object at that point? The only
possible way it could have happened is if
nautilus_python_object_instance_init is invoked by
MenuProviderTest.__new__ somehow, but that doesn't make sense either.
You run PyObject_CallObject(class-type,NULL) to create object-
instance, but calling a type also calls the type's __init__ method.
So how is it that later the __init__ method is being called again on
the same object? Unless you're doing something very weird, it could
only mean it's a different object.
I doubt it'll fix all your problems, but one thing to try is to
replace PyObject_CallObject(class-type, NULL); with class-type-
tp_new(class-type);.
But you probably have to go back to the drawing board and rethink the
whole thing. What you've posted is quite unusual.
You should choose more descriptive variable names, too.

PyObject_SetAttrString - doesn't set instance attribute
I'm having a bit of trouble with C/Python bindings. Particularly,
trying to set an instance variable from C when the object is
initialised using PyObject_SetAttrString, but nothing seems to happen.
The C initialisation code is:
static void
nautilus_python_object_instance_init (NautilusPythonObject *object)
{
fprintf(stderr, nautilus_python_object_instance_init called\n);
NautilusPythonObjectClass *class;
debug_enter();
class = (NautilusPythonObjectClass*)(((GTypeInstance*)object)-
g_class);
object-instance = PyObject_CallObject(class-type, NULL);
PyObject* test_int = PyInt_FromLong(42);
if (object-instance == NULL)
{
PyErr_Print();
}
else
{
fprintf(stderr, Setting magic parameter\n);
fprintf(stderr, From C: );
PyObject_Print(object-instance, stderr, 0);
fprintf(stderr, \n);
int retval = PyObject_SetAttrString(object-instance,
super_happy_magic, test_int);
fprintf(stderr, Result: %i\n, retval);
}
Py_DECREF(test_int);
}
...and the Python module contains:
class MenuProviderTest(nautilus.MenuProvider):
def __init__(self):
print From Python: %s % self
try:
print getattr(self, super_happy_magic)
except AttributeError:
print Didn't work!
When the MenuProviderTest is created, the output is:
nautilus_python_object_instance_init called
Setting magic parameter
From C: MenuProvTest.MenuProviderTest object at 0x7faee6a9fcd0
Result: 0
From Python: MenuProvTest.MenuProviderTest object at 0x7faee6a9fcd0
Didn't work!
(I've tried getattr and self.super_happy_magic, with the same effect.)
Where am I going wrong?
