[Swig-user] std::map examples in Python?

[Adam N. <a.n...@sh...>]

Hi all,

I can't seem to figure out how to pass a Python dictionary to a C++ function 
as an std::map object.

Are there any examples showing how this is done?  I can't seem to find any at all.

My .i file has "%include <std_map.i>" in it, then an %include for all the .h 
files declaring the maps, but when I run my Python program I get a "TypeError: 
in method 'MyClass_open', argument 3 of type 'ns::MY_MAP &'"

It doesn't seem to convert the dictionary parameter into the C++ std::map type.

If anyone can point me toward some examples I would greatly appreciate it!

Many thanks,
Adam.
