Hi all,
i'm trying to wrap c++ functions that have pointer variables. The test
example i'm using is shown below:
int World::addition(int* a, int* b)
{
int z = *a + *b;
 return z;
}

Now, i defined it in my wrapper as :
.def("addition", &World::addition)

My code compiles, but when I try to execute it from python, i get this
error:
Python Argument types in World.Addition(World, int, int) did not match C++
signature: addition(class World {lvalue}, int* , int*)

Is there a workaround for this??
