I am wrapping a library that makes extensive use of flags (in varying
guises) that are unsigned longs. I have put together a simplified example
below--when I try to use this module I get an overflow error. Is there a
way to make this type of conversion? Thanks in advance. --Mark
struct bigint {
unsigned long flag;
};
#include <boost/python.hpp>
using namespace boost::python;
BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(ul) {
class_<bigint>("bigint")
.def_readwrite("flag", &bigint::flag);
}
