Use %attribute when you have a pair of get/set methods to a primitive type like in: %attribute(A, int, a, get_a, set_a); struct A { int get_a() const; void set_a(int aa); }; If you don't provide a 'set' method, a 'read-only' attribute is generated, ie, like in: %attribute(A, int, c, get_c); Use %attributeref when you have const/non-const reference access methods for primitive types or class/structs, like in: %attributeref(A, int, b); struct A { const int& b() const; int& b(); }; %attributeref(B, int, c); struct B { int& c(); }; You can also use %attributeref(Class, AttributeType, AttributeName, AccessorMethod) if the internal C++ reference methods have a different name from the attribute you want, so %attributeref(B, int, d, c); is the same as the last example, but instead of the attribute 'c' being called 'c', it is called 'd'. Now you can use the attributes like so: x = A() x.a = 3 # calls A::set_a print x.a # calls A::get_a x.b = 3 # calls A::b() print x.b # calls A::b() const Use %attribute2 instead of %attribute to indicate that reference-pointer translation is required. You use %attribute2 instead of %attribute in cases like this: %attribute2(MyClass, MyFoo, Foo, GetFoo, SetFoo); %inline %{ struct MyFoo { int x; }; class MyClass { MyFoo foo; public: MyFoo& GetFoo() { return foo; } void SetFoo(const MyFoo& other) { foo = other; } }; %} Here, the data type of the property is a wrapped type (MyFoo) and on the C++ side it is passed by reference. The problem is that the SWIG wrapper will pass around a pointer (MyFoo *) which is not compatible with the reference type of the accessors (MyFoo &). Therefore, if you use %attribute, you'll get an error from your C/C++ compiler. %attribute2 translates between a pointer and a reference to eliminate the error. In case you're confused, let's make it simple: just use %attribute at first, but if the C/C++ compiler gives an error while compiling the wrapper, try %attribute2 instead. NOTE: remember that if the type contains commas, such as 'std::pair<int,int>', you need to use the macro like: %attributeref(A, %arg(std::pair<int,int>), pval); where %arg() 'normalizes' the type to be understood as a single argument, otherwise the macro will get confused by the comma. The %attributeval is the same as %attribute, but should be used when the type is a class/struct (ie a non-primitive type) and when the get and set methods return/pass by value. The following is very similar to the above example, but note that the access is by value rather than reference. %attributeval(MyClassVal, MyFoo, ReadWriteFoo, GetFoo, SetFoo); %attributeval(MyClassVal, MyFoo, ReadOnlyFoo, GetFoo); %inline %{ class MyClassVal { MyFoo foo; public: MyFoo GetFoo() { return foo; } void SetFoo(MyFoo other) { foo = other; } }; %} The %attributestring is the same as %attributeval, but should be used for string class types, which are unusual as they are a class on the C++ side, but normally an immutable/primitive type in the target language. Example usage for std::string: %include <std_string.i> %attributestring(MyStringyClass, std::string, ReadWriteString, GetString, SetString); %attributestring(MyStringyClass, std::string, ReadOnlyString, GetString); %inline %{ class MyStringyClass { std::string str; public: MyStringyClass(const std::string &val) : str(val) {} std::string GetString() { return str; } void SetString(std::string other) { str = other; } }; %} The %attributestring also works for class types that have %naturalvar turned on and so is also useful for shared_ptr which has %naturalvar turned on in %shared_ptr. */ // // Define SWIG_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPLATE if you want to use templates instead of macros for the C++ get and set wrapper methods // Does not always generate compilable code, use at your peril!
