Dear all, I wraped a v_varray class into python by boost. I called it in python, most of its attributes work well. Only when I call a.push(1.0),it crashed due to not match type.The problem is that my input argument in c++ is float*(for passing an array) while python has no pointer type. How can I pass a variable in python to a.push() to make sure it work correctly? Many thanks for help! Javen /*************************running result in python:****************/
