+ The following macros convert a pair of set/get methods |
+ into a "native" attribute. |
+ |
+ Use %attribute when you have a pair of get/set methods to a primitive type |
+ like in: |
+ |
+ %attribute(A, int, a, get_a, set_a); |
+ |
+ struct A |
+ { |
+ int get_a() const; |
+ void set_a(int aa); |
+ }; |
+ |
+ If you don't provide a 'set' method, a 'read-only' attribute |
+ is generated, ie, like in: |
+ |
+ %attribute(A, int, c, get_c); |
+ |
+ Use %attributeref when you have const/non-const reference access methods |
+ for primitive types or class/structs, like in: |
+ |
+ %attributeref(A, int, b); |
+ |
+ struct A |
+ { |
+ const int& b() const; |
+ int& b(); |
+ }; |
+ |
+ %attributeref(B, int, c); |
+ |
+ struct B |
+ { |
+ int& c(); |
+ }; |
+ |
+ You can also use |
+ |
+ %attributeref(Class, AttributeType, AttributeName, AccessorMethod) |
+ |
+ if the internal C++ reference methods have a different name from the |
+ attribute you want, so |
+ |
+ %attributeref(B, int, d, c); |
+ |
+ is the same as the last example, but instead of the attribute 'c' being |
+ called 'c', it is called 'd'. |
+ |
+ Now you can use the attributes like so: |
+ |
+ x = A() |
+ x.a = 3 # calls A::set_a |
+ print x.a # calls A::get_a |
+ |
+ x.b = 3 # calls A::b() |
+ print x.b # calls A::b() const |
+ |
+ Use %attribute2 instead of %attribute to indicate that reference-pointer |
+ translation is required. You use %attribute2 instead of %attribute in |
+ cases like this: |
+ |
+ %attribute2(MyClass, MyFoo, Foo, GetFoo, SetFoo); |
+ %inline %{ |
+ struct MyFoo { |
+ int x; |
+ }; |
+ class MyClass { |
+ MyFoo foo; |
+ public: |
+ MyFoo& GetFoo() { return foo; } |
+ void SetFoo(const MyFoo& other) { foo = other; } |
+ }; |
+ %} |
+ |
+ Here, the data type of the property is a wrapped type (MyFoo) and on the |
+ C++ side it is passed by reference. The problem is that the SWIG wrapper will |
+ pass around a pointer (MyFoo *) which is not compatible with the reference |
+ type of the accessors (MyFoo &). Therefore, if you use %attribute, you'll get |
+ an error from your C/C++ compiler. %attribute2 translates between a pointer |
+ and a reference to eliminate the error. In case you're confused, let's make it |
+ simple: just use %attribute at first, but if the C/C++ compiler gives an error |
+ while compiling the wrapper, try %attribute2 instead. |
+ |
+ NOTE: remember that if the type contains commas, such as 'std::pair<int,int>', |
+ you need to use the macro like: |
+ |
+ %attributeref(A, %arg(std::pair<int,int>), pval); |
+ |
+ where %arg() 'normalizes' the type to be understood as a single |
+ argument, otherwise the macro will get confused by the comma. |
+ |
+ The %attributeval is the same as %attribute, but should be used when the type |
+ is a class/struct (ie a non-primitive type) and when the get and set methods |
+ return/pass by value. The following is very similar to the above example, but |
+ note that the access is by value rather than reference. |
+ |
+ %attributeval(MyClassVal, MyFoo, ReadWriteFoo, GetFoo, SetFoo); |
+ %attributeval(MyClassVal, MyFoo, ReadOnlyFoo, GetFoo); |
+ %inline %{ |
+ class MyClassVal { |
+ MyFoo foo; |
+ public: |
+ MyFoo GetFoo() { return foo; } |
+ void SetFoo(MyFoo other) { foo = other; } |
+ }; |
+ %} |
+ |
+ The %attributestring is the same as %attributeval, but should be used for string |
+ class types, which are unusual as they are a class on the C++ side, but normally an |
+ immutable/primitive type in the target language. Example usage for std::string: |
+ |
+ %include <std_string.i> |
+ %attributestring(MyStringyClass, std::string, ReadWriteString, GetString, SetString); |
+ %attributestring(MyStringyClass, std::string, ReadOnlyString, GetString); |
+ %inline %{ |
+ class MyStringyClass { |
+ std::string str; |
+ public: |
+ MyStringyClass(const std::string &val) : str(val) {} |
+ std::string GetString() { return str; } |
+ void SetString(std::string other) { str = other; } |
+ }; |
+ %} |
