#12 Default constructor assumed when non present

[Mike Wilson]

Hi

Giving GCCXML the following header file

struct TEvent
{
template <class C>
TEvent(C& clss);
};

I get

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<GCC_XML cvs_revision="1.121">
<Namespace id="_1" name="::" members="_3 _2 _4 " mangled="_Z2::" demangled="::"/>
<Namespace id="_2" name="std" context="_1" members="" mangled="_Z3std" demangled="std"/>
<Namespace id="_3" name="__cxxabiv1" context="_1" members="" mangled="_Z10__cxxabiv1" demangled="__cxxabiv1"/>
<Struct id="_4" name="TEvent" context="_1" mangled="6TEvent" demangled="TEvent" location="f0:2" file="f0" line="2" artificial="1" size="8" align="8" members="" bases=""/>
<File id="f0" name="./Header6.h"/>
</GCC_XML>

In an earlier version og GCC-XML I get

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<GCC_XML>
<Namespace id="_1" name="::" members="_3 " mangled="_Z2::"/>
<Namespace id="_2" name="std" context="_1" members="" mangled="_Z3std"/>
<Struct id="_3" name="TEvent" context="_1" mangled="6TEvent" location="f0:2" file="f0" line="2" members="_4 " bases=""/>
<Constructor id="_4" name="TEvent" artificial="1" throw="" context="_3" mangled="_ZN6TEventC1ERKS_ *INTERNAL* " location="f0:2" file="f0" line="2">
<Argument name="_ctor_arg" type="_5"/>
</Constructor>
<ReferenceType id="_5" type="_3c"/>
<CvQualifiedType id="_3c" type="_3" const="1"/>
<File id="f0" name="Header6.h"/>
</GCC_XML>

When supplying the header file to Py++, I get from using my latest GCC-XML
BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(pyplusplus){
bp::class_< TEvent >( "TEvent" );
}
when my earlier one gives
BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(pyplusplus){
bp::class_< TEvent, boost::noncopyable >( "TEvent", bp::no_init );
}
The latter is correct, as there is no default constructor for TEvent.

I submiited this bug report to GCC-XML and it appears the XML format has changed, hence the error in Py++?

In passing can I say thank you for this tool.

This issue may have been fixed in the latest GCC-XML version.

Thanks for bug reporting. I already took new version of GCC-XML and few my tests failed. I hope to fix this problem in next few days.

The possible work-around could be to remove all constructors from the class and to set its "noncopyable" property to True:

cls = mb.class_( ... )
for c in cls.constructors(recursive=False):
cls.remove_declaration( c )

after this be sure to call to

mb.run_query_optimizer()

otherwise it is possible you will get some strange errors

I have just rebuilt GCCXML (cvs release 1.122) and ran simple and more complicated test - they both worked fine.
(Are you saying you still get this error with this release (1.122) of GCCXML?).

Thanks for the possible work-around - it at least provides me with some ideas on how to customise my output. (My quick solution was to just add 'private: TEvent();' , but I've removed this now).

Mike, I think I fixed this bug. In order to enjoy from it, you will have to checkout latest version of GCCXML, pygccxml and Py++ projects.

P.S. It took so much time, because there were few problems in GCCXML and the fix was not so trivial.

Thank you Roman.

I've got another problem at the mo, but will at least try & download the latest versions as you suggest. I assume you are aware of another GCCXML update - I was going to e-mail you but never got round to it.
