If you have a C function that receives a PyCObject, just include the *

This works. But only once, means if I try to use this object second
time in Python function it causes crash.
What I am doing in my program is that I am putting STL map in a
structure & passing that structure as object to a Python function
alongwith other agurments of that Python function. This briefly as
below:
// In pyinterface.h file:---
typedef hash_map<char*,intElements;
typedef hash_map<char*,Elements*,StringHash,eqstr>
PerExchGroupsElementsTable;
typedef struct capsule {
PerExchGroupsElementsTable* refgrps;
} *pcapsule;
// In pyinterface.cpp file:---
numvars = // value set depending on number of variables of that python
function
PyObject *pTuple = PyTuple_New(numvars);
// Set variables as below:
for(nCtr = 0; nCtr < numvars; nCtr++){
slot = prul->pVarLst[nCtr].slot;
ndtyp = ordvars[slot].dtype;
switch(ndtyp){
case(INT_T):
PyTuple_SetItem(pTuple,nCtr,PyInt_FromLong(ordvars[slot].nvalue));
break;
case(FLOAT_T):
PyTuple_SetItem(pTuple,nCtr,PyFloat_FromDouble(ord vars[slot].fvalue));
break;
case(STRING_T):
PyTuple_SetItem(pTuple,nCtr,PyString_FromString(or dvars[slot].cvalue));
break;
default:
printf("\nUnknown data type [%d] for %s\n",ndtyp,prul-
>pVarLst[nCtr].var);
bUnknownDataType = true;
break;
}
if(bUnknownDataType){
ret = -1;
break;
}
}
// Then set the C++ object as below:
if(ret == 0){
capsule grpob;
if(pGroups){
grpob.refgrps = pGroups; // pGroups is pointer to
PerExchGroupsElementsTable map & is global.
int ret = PyTuple_SetItem(pTuple,
(numvars-1),PyCObject_FromVoidPtr((void *)&grpob, NULL));
}
PyObject *pResult = PyObject_CallObject(pfunc,pTuple);
if(PyErr_Occurred()){
printf("error occured in PyObject_CallObject for %s\n",prul-
>pyobj.szPyRouteName);
PyErr_Print();
} else {
printf("Python function passed, use its result for other
purposes as designed\n");
}
Py_XDECREF(pResult);
Py_XDECREF(pTuple);
}
//---------- My Pythong module & functions in it -------------------
//PyObject* pfunc is a Python function which I compile dynamically &
add to my Python module as below:
// One of such dynamically compiled function is as below:
char pyfunction[]=\
"def TSE581(t22,t52,t1012,ob):

print \"result is pass\"\n\
return 1\n\
else:\n\
print \"result is fail\"\n\
return 0\n";
// function parameter "ob" in this function definition is the one
which Im passing as CObject.
PyObject *result = NULL;
result =
PyRun_String(pyfunction,Py_file_input,_pPyDictiona ry,_pPyDictionary);
if(PyErr_Occurred() || result == NULL){
printf("Failed to compile function [%s]\n",func);
PyErr_Print();
return;
}
Py_XDECREF(result);
result = NULL;
PyObject *ptr = PyObject_GetAttrString(_pPyModule,fname);
if(PyErr_Occurred() || *ptr == NULL){
printf("PyObject_GetAttrString failed:%s",fname);
return;
}
if(!PyCallable_Check(*ptr)){
printf("%s not a callable Python code\n",fname);
Py_XDECREF(*ptr);
*ptr = NULL;
return;
}
// I've created dynamically loadble Python module & multiple functions

What happens is that when Python function TSE581 gets called from my C
Program via PyObject_CallObject (as shown at top of this post), co1
function works fine & can access the map pointer properly.
But when next function like1 gets called, crash happens.
My queries are & things on which I need help are:
1) Is there anything wrong I am doing when I am passing the C-Object
from my C++ code->Python -C++ code again?
2) Am I missing to increase or decrease the reference count somewhere.
3) I dont want map pointer to be ever freed because it is Process
level data structure & requried at every execution of these Python
functions. How do I avoid its cleanup when it gets passed to Python &
Python cleans up those objects.
If want to see my Python module & the CPP code using it, I can send
all my source code to you.
Please help.
