[C++-sig] Boost.Python : Byref parameters

[Joel Gerard]

Hi All,

I'm trying to call a C++ member function from Python
that takes three ints by reference, and modifies them.

static  f32 Normalize (f32& fx, f32& fy, f32& fz);

Furthermore, its overloaded:

f32 Normalize (void);
static  f32 Normalize (Vector& kV);

I've wrapped it like so:

f32 (Vector::*VectorNormalize1)(void) =
&Vector::Normalize;

f32 (*VectorNormalize2)(Vector&)= &Vector::Normalize;

f32 (*VectorNormalize3)(f32&,f32&,f32&) =
&Vector::Normalize;

.def("Normalize",VectorNormalize1)
.def("Normalize",VectorNormalize2)
.def("Normalize",VectorNormalize3)

Only Normalize defined by VectorNormalize3 is broken
saying: "TypeError: unbound method
Boost.Python.function object must be called with
Vector instance as first argument (got float instance
instead)" 

I think I'm doing something wrong with the
call-policies (since I have none), but I don't know
which ones to use.  What am I doing wrong?

Can somebody explain what Boost is trying to do here?

Thanks,
Joel
