[PyQt] SIP, multiple constructors and exceptions

[Andrew Perella]

When a class is wrapped with multiple constructors, the generated sip
binding code does not raise an exception if the python calling code does not
provide matching arguments.

Is this by design?

 

 

Eg:

 

extern "C" {static void *init_CutScenePythonState(sipWrapper *, PyObject *,
sipWrapper **, int *);}

static void *init_CutScenePythonState(sipWrapper *sipSelf,PyObject
*sipArgs,sipWrapper **,int *sipArgsParsed)

{

    sipCutScenePythonState *sipCpp = 0;

 

    if (!sipCpp)

    {

        if (sipParseArgs(sipArgsParsed,sipArgs,""))

        {

            sipCpp = new sipCutScenePythonState();

        }

    }

 

    if (!sipCpp)

    {

        const CutScenePythonState * a0;

 

        if
(sipParseArgs(sipArgsParsed,sipArgs,"JA",sipClass_CutScenePythonState,&a0))

        {

            sipCpp = new sipCutScenePythonState(*a0);

        }

    }

 

    if (sipCpp)

        sipCpp->sipPySelf = sipSelf;

// NO EXCEPTION RAISED HERE IF sipCPP is NULL!

 

 

    return sipCpp;

}

 

 

Cheers,

Andrew
