Write a thin wrapper and .add_property that, e.g. (untested)
int get_base_i_directly(my_class const& self) { return self.get_base_i(); } ... .add_property("basei", make_function(get_base_i_directly))
This way Boost.Python only "sees" my_class in the signature.
Yes, thanks, that works. What puzzles me, is that the same works for return-by-value wrappings. I don't quite get why that's something different to boost.python. Is there an easy explanation or am I just missing the obvious?
