[C++-sig] Re: Boost::Python for C code -> Segmentation fault

[Mario Palomo]

Thanks a lot!!

Using Linux (Debian Sid) Boost::Python packages and using g++ to link works for 
me too.

I've changed the original file to use 'int name' instead of 'char *name':

FILE: hello.cpp
=================== BEGIN =======================
#include <stdio.h>

//typedef
struct user {
   int name;
   int number;
};//user;

void greet(user *u)
{
   printf("Hello %d, your number is %d.\n", u->name, u->number);
}

/*-------------------------------------------- */

#include <boost/python/module.hpp>
#include <boost/python/def.hpp>
#include <boost/python/class.hpp>
using namespace boost::python;

BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(hello)
{
   class_<user>("user")
     .def_readwrite("name",   &user::name)
     .def_readwrite("number", &user::number)
   ;

   def("greet", greet);
}
==================== END ========================


$ g++ -c hello.cpp -Wall -I/usr/include/python2.3
$ g++ -shared -o hello.so hello.o -lboost_python

$ python
Python 2.3.4 (#2, Jul  5 2004, 09:15:05)

 >>> import hello
 >>> u = hello.user()
 >>> u.number=10
 >>> u.name=20
 >>> hello.greet(u)
Hello 20, your number is 10.
 >>>
$

Using 'ldd' I get the segfault (even if I use 'int name').
Then, should I use always g++ for linking C++ code?
I've been using 'ldd' for years... :-)
