Detailed Description

Python object converter utilities namespace.

Provides templates for converting python objects to c++ objects and the other way round.

This is done by using the type of the value provided by the module as a template parameter. Hence the compiler can infer which converter should be used. Note: We are only interested in the type of the value, the actual value isn't used at all!

GetTuple() [1/3]

void GetTuple ( const TupleType &  , boost::python::list &  , SizeT< 0 >    )

inline

Break recursion when all members are already appended to the list.

GetTuple() [2/3]

void GetTuple ( const TupleType &  tuple, boost::python::list &  pyList  )

inline

TMP (Template Meta Programming ) The given python list is filled, and later converted into a python tuple (in convertToPythonObject).

To fill the python list from the C++ std::tuple we need again TMP methods. The variadic template std::tuple is copied by the recursive defined template function GetTuple, the overloaded argument (type SizeT<>) of the function serves as a counter for the recursion depth.

      GetTuple(tuple, pyList, SizeT<std::tuple_size<TupleType>::value>());

GetTuple() [3/3]

void GetTuple ( const TupleType &  tuple, boost::python::list &  pyList, SizeT< N >    )

inline

Append elements of the tuple to pyList by recursively calling this function with the element index as argument type.

Definition at line 424 of file PyObjConvUtils.h.

      GetTuple(tuple, pyList, SizeT < N - 1 > ());

iteratePythonObject()

bool iteratePythonObject	(	const boost::python::object &	pyObject,
		Functor	function
	)

Helper function to loop over a python object that implements the iterator concept and call a functor with each element as argument.

Parameters

pyObject	the python object to iterate over
function	any functor object which accepts a boost::python::object as its only argument and returns true if the iteration should be continued

Returns

true if the iteration was completed over all elements

Definition at line 255 of file PyObjConvUtils.h.

      boost::python::object iterator(boost::python::handle<>(PyObject_GetIter(pyObject.ptr())));

      while ((item = PyIter_Next(iterator.ptr()))) {
        boost::python::object obj{boost::python::handle<>(item)}; // to make sure we properly decref

SetTuple() [1/3]

void SetTuple ( TupleType &  , const boost::python::tuple &  , SizeT< 0 >    )

inline

Break recursion once all elements have been set.

TMP (Template Meta Programming ) The given python tuple is written into the given c++ tuple.

SetTuple() [3/3]

void SetTuple ( TupleType &  tuple, const boost::python::tuple &  pyTuple, SizeT< N >    )

inline

Set the elements of the tuple recursively by calling with the function with the next tuple index and converting one element.

SetVariant() [1/2]

void SetVariant ( boost::variant< Types... > &  , const boost::python::object &  pyObject, SizeT< 0 >    )

TMP (Template Meta Programming ) The given python object is written into the given c++ boost variant.

To fill the C++ boost::variant we need again TMP methods. The variadic template boost::variant is filled by the recursive defined template function SetVariant, the overloaded argument (type SizeT<>) of the function serves as a counter for the recursion depth.
