3654,Functions created via make_getter don't seem to use converters,John Wiegley <jwiegley@…>,Dave Abrahams,"I have a converter registered for a boost::optional<amount_t> object.  If I use it as follows, my code works just fine:

 boost::optional<amount_t> py_price(annotation_t& ann) {
   return ann.price;
 }

 class_< annotation_t > (""Annotation"")
   .add_property(""price"", py_price)
   ;

However, if I dispense with the intermediary and use make_getter, I get an exception stating that no conversion exists for optional<amount_t>:

 class_< annotation_t > (""Annotation"")
   .add_property(""price"", make_getter(&annotation_t::price))
   ;

The attached file demonstrates this bug using Boost 1.40 and Python 2.6.1.  I'm running it on OS X 10.6.2 with g++ 4.4.2.  My steps were:

g++-mp-4.4 -I/usr/include/python2.6 -I/usr/local/include/boost-1_40 -o bug.so bug.cc -L/usr/local/lib -lboost_python-xgcc44-d-1_40 -lpython -shared

$ python
import bug
x = bug.Annotation()
x.price2
# This works just fine
x.price
# This causes an abort() due to terminate()",Bugs,closed,Boost 1.42.0,python USE GITHUB,Boost 1.40.0,Problem,invalid,,
