Hey guys, sorry to ask another question of this nature, but I can't find the answer or a single example of it anywhere. I'm sure it's been asked before, but my google-fu isn't strong enough to find anything.
I have the following: struct MyType { PyObject_HEAD ... }; PyTypeObject PyType_MyType = { ... } Now, elsewhere in the code I want to create an instance of this custom type in C/C++ (rather than in the Python interpreter, where this all seems to happen magically) and return it from a method. What I'm trying now is the following: PyObject* obj = _PyObject_New(&PyType_MyType); obj = PyObject_Init(obj, &PyType_MyType); ... return obj; When "obj" gets back to the interpreter, Python sees it (or rather, it's __repr__) in accordance with what it "should" be. However, any attempt to USE the object results in a segfault. I feel my problem is simply that I'm not allocating "obj" correctly in the C++ function. If anyone has any advice, I would really appreciate it. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
