SWIG Question

I'm trying to get ODN to work with the new 1.0.6 Ogre, however one quick problem...

Swig is generating:

SWIGEXPORT void SWIGSTDCALL CSharp_RenderSystem_addListener(void * jarg1, void * jarg2) {
Ogre::RenderSystem *arg1 = (Ogre::RenderSystem *) 0 ;
Listener *arg2 = (Listener *) 0 ;

arg1 = (Ogre::RenderSystem *)jarg1;
arg2 = (Listener *)jarg2;
(arg1)->addListener(arg2);

}


I need to make sure it's generating RenderSystem::Listener, instead of Listener, how would I go about this?

(Listener is a class inside the RenderSystem class, so it looks like it's confusing SWIG.)

Short answer (read: what I did for now): %ignore addListener and removeListener :wink:

IIRC, SWIG doesn't support nested classes. We'll probably need to find a workaround for that one...

Thanks for the prompt reply -

The code will work if the scopies can be added in - I was curious if it was possible to force something it would create to something else. (Not sure if that made sense...)

Might as well use this same thread...for another SWIG question.

First off, I hate SWIG. The lack of documentation of SWIG actually.
I am able to manually add wrappers in a fast fashion - if I were to manually wrap bits on my end, how hard is it for someone to do the SWIG interfaces for the wrappers I already wrote? :)

Or would anyone mind if I provided _completed_ code for some of these wrappers?

If that's fine, would there be any problem with compiling in a ogrebindings_manual.cpp in the OgreBindings project? And a OgreBindingsPINVOKE_Manual.cs for the OgreNet project.

Please say this will not cause too many problems, I would be able to help out a lot more on my end (hopefully).

Thanky

Can't say about the manual wrapping, but...

The lack of documentation of SWIG

481 pages of documentation aren't enough for you?

Nope, 800+ pages is the only amount of good documentation I will allow. :)

I take back what I said, my apologies, and say this instead: The lack of C# examples and information + SWIG.

I have a hard time using this documentation to learn the beginnings of something, but it's perfect to add on to what I know (assuming I knew anything regarding SWIG). And that initial getting started documentation is what I need.

I'm going through the supplied examples - that previously i thought were limited, but might be helpful now.
