swig char ** 作为指向 char * 的指针

Question

我在使用 swig 和 char ** 作为指向变量 char * 的指针（而不是 char * 列表！！！）时遇到了问题。我找不到将指针包装到 char *.

的方法

目的是将拼接的结果写入指针所引用的char *中

以下是我的代码：

文件pointers.cpp:

#include "pointers.h"
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

void conc(char *str1, char *str2, char **res){
  char *aux = (char *)malloc(strlen(str1)+strlen(str2)+1);
  strcpy(aux,str1);
  strcat(aux,str2);
  strcpy(*res,aux);
  free(aux);
}

文件pointers.h

void conc(char *str1, char *str2, char **res)

文件pointers.i

%module pointers
%{
#define SWIG_FILE_WITH_INIT
#include "pointers.h"
%}

%include "typemaps.i"
%include "cpointer.i"
%include "cstring.i"

%pointer_functions(char *, charp);
extern void conc(char *str1, char *str2, char **res);

文件setup.py:

from distutils.core import setup, Extension


pointers_module = Extension('_pointers',
                       sources=['pointers_wrap.cxx', 'pointers.cpp'],
                       )

setup (name = 'pointers',
   version = '0.1',
   author      = "SWIG Docs",
   description = """Simple swig example from docs""",
   ext_modules = [pointers_module],
   py_modules = ["pointers"],
   )

最后，python main:

import pointers

result = new_charp()
pointers.conc("Hello ","World!", result);
print(result)
delete_charp(result)

而且都是用终端命令编译的：

swig -c++ -python pointers.i
python setup.py build_ext --inplace

但是编译return错误：

pointers_wrap.cxx: In function ‘char** copy_charp(char*)’:
pointers_wrap.cxx:3124:58: error: invalid static_cast from type ‘char*’ to            
type ‘const char*&’ return (new char *(static_cast< const char *& >(value)));
                                                                         ^
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

有帮助吗？

[问题更新]

按照@MarkTolonen 的建议，我尝试按以下方式更改 pointers.i 文件：

新文件pointers.i:

%module pointers

%{
#include "pointers.h"
%}

// This input typemap declares that char** requires no input parameter.
// Instead, the address of a local char* is used to call the function.
%typemap(in,numinputs=0) char** (char* tmp) %{
   = &tmp;
%}

// After the function is called, the char** parameter contains a malloc'ed char* pointer.
// Construct a Python Unicode object (I'm using Python 3) and append it to
// any existing return value for the wrapper.
%typemap(argout) char** %{
  PyObject *obj = PyUnicode_FromString(*);
  $result = SWIG_Python_AppendOutput($result,obj);
%}

// The malloc'ed pointer is no longer needed, so make sure it is freed.
%typemap(freearg) char** %{
  free(*);
%}

// Now that the typemap exists, let swig wrap the header.
%include "pointers.h"

编译：

swig -c++ -python pointers.i
g++ --std=c++11 -fPIC -c pointers.cpp
g++ --std=c++11 -fPIC -c pointers_wrap.cxx -I/usr/local/include/python3.6m

然后我得到了错误：

In function ‘PyObject* _wrap_conc(PyObject*, PyObject*):`
pointers_wrap.cxx:3618:1: error: jump to label ‘fail’ [-fpermissive]
fail:
pointers_wrap.cxx:1222:49: note:   from here
 #define SWIG_fail                  goto fail

 SWIG_exception_fail(SWIG_ArgError(res2), "in method '" "conc" "', argument " "2"" of type '" "char *""'");

pointers_wrap.cxx:3609:8: note:   crosses initialization of ‘_object* obj’
 auto obj = PyUnicode_FromString(*arg3);
pointers_wrap.cxx:3618:1: error: jump to label ‘fail’ [-fpermissive]
fail:

 if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args,(char *)"OO:conc",&obj0,&obj1)) SWIG_fail;
pointers_wrap.cxx:3609:8: note:   crosses initialization of ‘_object* obj’
 auto obj = PyUnicode_FromString(*arg3);

它适用于此 windows OS 但不适用于我的 ubuntu。任何人都可以告诉如何处理它。我真的不知道如何解决我的指针问题。

来自 SWIG 3.0 文档，接近 §9.2.1 cpointer.i 的末尾：

Note: None of these macros can be used to safely work with strings (char * or char **).

因此您将不得不求助于类型映射。下面是一个例子：

pointers.cpp

我不得不稍微更改一下您的来源。 char** 参数应该 return 分配的指针，而不是释放它：

#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "pointers.h"

void conc(char *str1, char *str2, char **res){
  *res = (char *)malloc(strlen(str1)+strlen(str2)+1);
  strcpy(*res,str1);
  strcat(*res,str2);
}

pointers.h

void conc(char *str1, char *str2, char **res);

pointers.i

此版本的 swig 文件声明类型映射以处理 char** 输出参数。

%module pointers

%{
#include "pointers.h"
%}

// This input typemap declares that char** requires no input parameter.
// Instead, the address of a local char* is used to call the function.
%typemap(in,numinputs=0) char** (char* tmp) %{
     = &tmp;
%}

// After the function is called, the char** parameter contains a malloc'ed char* pointer.
// Construct a Python Unicode object (I'm using Python 3) and append it to
// any existing return value for the wrapper.
%typemap(argout) char** (PyObject* obj) %{
    obj = PyUnicode_FromString(*);
    $result = SWIG_Python_AppendOutput($result,obj);
%}

// The malloc'ed pointer is no longer needed, so make sure it is freed.
%typemap(freearg) char** %{
    free(*);
%}

// Now that the typemap exists, let swig wrap the header.
%include "pointers.h"

test.py

import pointers
result = pointers.conc('Hello ','World!');
print(result)

输出

Hello World!
