Yeah. Find the guy who wrote a function with over 25 arguments. Bring a baseball bat. Persuade him of his error.

Hi,

Thanks!  -DBOOST_PYTHON_MAX_ARITY=34 did indeed help ... for simple functions it did the trick, and it did increase my limit for member functions, but only to 25.  For over 25 args for a member functions of an exposed class I get the following compiler error:

/usr/include/boost/python/detail/invoke.hpp:81: error: must use ‘.*’ or ‘->*’ to call pointer-to-member function in ‘f (...)’


#include <boost/python.hpp>

using namespace boost::python;

class MyClass {

public:

  int qq(int x1, int x2, int x3, int x4, int x5,
         int x6, int x7, int x8, int x9, int x10,
         int x11, int x12, int x13, int x14, int x15,
         int x16, int x17, int x18, int x19, int x20,
	 int x21, int x22, int x23, int x24, float x25 /*,float x26*/);

};

BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(mytest) 
{

class_< MyClass >("MyClass", init<>() )
  .def("qq",&MyClass::qq);

}

Any ideas?  

cheers,

Eilif
