<H2>C++ Reference Handling</H2>
<tt>$Header$</tt><br>
<p>
This example tests SWIG's handling of C++ references. Since C++
references are closely related to pointers (as both refer to a
location in memory), SWIG simply collapses all references into
pointers when creating wrappers.
<h2>Some examples</h2>
References are most commonly used as function parameter. For example,
you might have an operator like this:
<blockquote>
<pre>
Vector operator+(const Vector &a, const Vector &b) {
Vector result;
result.x = a.x + b.x;
result.y = a.y + b.y;
result.z = a.z + b.z;
return result;
}
</pre>
</blockquote>
or a function:
<blockquote>
<pre>
Vector addv(const Vector &a, const Vector &b) {
Vector result;
result.x = a.x + b.x;
result.y = a.y + b.y;
result.z = a.z + b.z;
return result;
}
</pre>
</blockquote>
In these cases, SWIG transforms everything into a pointer and creates a wrapper
that looks like this:
<blockquote>
<pre>
Vector wrap_addv(Vector *a, Vector *b) {
return addv(*a,*b);
}
</pre>
</blockquote>
Occasionally, a reference is used as a return value of a function
when the return result is to be used as an lvalue in an expression.
The prototypical example is an operator like this:
<blockquote>
<pre>
Vector &operator[](int index);
</pre>
</blockquote>
or a method:
<blockquote>
<pre>
Vector &get(int index);
</pre>
</blockquote>
For functions returning references, a wrapper like this is created:
<blockquote>
<pre>
Vector *wrap_Object_get(Object *self, int index) {
Vector &result = self->get(index);
return &result;
}
</pre>
</blockquote>
The following <a href="example.h">header file</a> contains some class
definitions with some operators and use of references.
<h2>SWIG Interface</h2>
SWIG does NOT support overloaded operators so it can not directly build
an interface to the classes in the above file. However, a number of workarounds
can be made. For example, an overloaded operator can be stuck behind a function
call such as the <tt>addv()</tt> function above. Array access can be handled
with a pair of set/get functions like this:
<blockquote>
<pre>
class VectorArray {
public:
...
%addmethods {
Vector &get(int index) {
return (*self)[index];
}
void set(int index, Vector &a) {
(*self)[index] = a;
}
}
...
}
</pre>
</blockquote>

<h2>Sample Ruby script</h2>
Click <a href="runme.rb">here</a> to see a script that manipulates some C++ references.
<h2>Notes:</h2>
<ul>
<li>C++ references primarily provide notational convenience for C++
source code. However, Ruby only supports the 'x.a'
notation so it doesn't much matter.
<p>
<li>When a program returns a reference, a pointer is returned.
Unlike return by value, memory is not allocated to hold the
return result.
<p>
<li>SWIG has particular trouble handling various combinations of references
and pointers. This is side effect of an old parsing scheme and
type representation that will be replaced in future versions.
