[pygccxml-development] Can held_type be an abstract class?

[Lakin W. <lak...@gm...>]

Hi,

I've applied some code that Roman and I came up with to wrap and
appropriately use the Ogre::SharedPtr class.  In one case I'm setting
the held_type of Ogre::Resource to be Ogre::SharedPtr <Ogre::Resource>
 ..  However when I try to compile the generated code, I get the
following error.

/home/lakin/code_personal/python-ogre/build/Resource.pypp.cpp:284:
instantiated from here
/usr/include/boost/python/object/pointer_holder.hpp:179: error: cannot
allocate an object of abstract type 'Ogre::Resource'
/home/lakin/.local//include/OGRE/OgreResource.h:68: note:   because
the following virtual functions are pure within 'Ogre::Resource':

Ogre::ResourceManager*, A1 =

long unsigned int, A3 =
boost::python::objects::reference_to_value<const Ogre::String&>, A4 =
bool, A5 = Ogre::ManualResourceLoader*, Pointer =
Ogre::SharedPtr<Ogre::Resource>, Value = Ogre::Resource]':

Anyone with ideas?
