Wrapping Python function pointer

[william.marie@…]

It would be really usefull to be able to wrap python function pointer as the following example :

typedef void (*fct_void_void)( void ); void addTimer( double dStartIn, double dTickTime, u32 iTickCount, fct_void_void bpFctCallback ) {

.....

} BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(ksys) {

using namespace boost::python; def("addTimer", &addTimer);

}

It isn't possible to convert a python function into a C function pointer, because a function pointer has no state. The closest you can get is to use the call operator of boost::python::object. See http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/v2/callbacks.html.
