[pygccxml-development] Recent Py++ modifications...

[Matthias B. <ba...@ir...>]

Hi,

today I noticed that I get a few failures when I run the unit tests for 
my Maya bindings. Earlier this week these failures have not been there, 
and I actually don't know what's going on here.

One of the tests contains those two lines:

         fv = MFloatVector(0.6, 0.7, 0.8)
         p = MPoint(fv)

When this code is executed, the second line produces the following error:

TypeError: No registered converter was able to extract a C++ reference 
to type class MVector from this Python object of type MFloatVector


The MPoint class is registered like this:

     bp::class_< MPoint >( "MPoint" )
         .def( bp::init< >() )
         .def( bp::init< MVector const & >() )
         .def( bp::init< MFloatVector const & >() )
         ...

So why does Boost.Python attempt to convert the MFloatVector object into 
a MVector object even though there is a constructor that takes an 
MFloatVector directly?

I'm not aware that I have done any changes to Py++ that could influence 
this behavior, so is it possible that one of the other recent 
modifications to Py++ have caused this? Or does anybody have an idea 
where I would have to look for the source of this problem?
As I said, a couple of days ago I haven't had those failures....(?)
