Description
I'm new in using pybind11, so I apologize if my problem is stupid. I had previously written a Python binding for this library called Pismo File Mount, that seems to be broken since I've updated Python and pybind11. The library has a functionint PfmApiFactory (PfmApi** api)
which retrieves an instance of the PfmApi interface. I've written a wrapper function to call newPfmApi
and return it back to Python.
PfmApi* newPfmApi(){
PfmApi* pfm = 0;
PfmApiFactory(&pfm);
return pfm;
}
m.def("newPfmApi", &newPfmApi);
Now this worked fine, and the previously-built library still works. But now after I compile the code, when I call newPfmApi
, I get segfault. I inspected newPfmApi
and PfmApiFactory
is actually running without error and the instance is created, but upon returning pfm
, it causes a segfault. I've also tested other return value policies, but to no avail:
m.def("newPfmApi", &newPfmApi, py::return_value_policy::reference);
