#916 closed Feature Requests (wontfix)

BPL Support for Python Callable Objects

Reported by: kdahlhaus@… Owned by: Dave Abrahams
Milestone: Boost 1.36.0 Component: python USE GITHUB
Version: Boost 1.34.0 Severity: Optimization
Keywords: Cc: kdahlhaus@…

Description (last modified by Dave Abrahams)

While wrapping the FLTK gui libray with BPL, I came across the need to register a callback with the C++ toolkit. Instead of creating temporary wrapper classes and such, it would be wonderful if BPL would support the automatic wrapping of callable python objects. Examples and a discussion are on the boost list on the days 4/8/01 - 4/9/.01.

Can this be extended to include other languages such as Lua 
and ICI?

I've read the thread but I'm afraid that after all these years I don't know what I had in mind for this fix anymore. Things shouldn't be allowed to sit in the tracker this long; I apologize to all. In the meantime, closing this bug. If anyone wants to reopen a discussion about what's needed, I'll be happy to take another look.
