多態性和pybind11

Question

當我想在Python中使用C ++多態時，我對pybind11有一個奇怪的行為。 這是我的問題的一個簡單示例：

import polymorphism as plm

a = plm.mylist()

print(a)

a[0].print()
a[1].print()

這個腳本的輸出是

[MyBase，MyDerived]

MyBase

MyBase

但預期的產出是

[MyBase，MyDerived]

MyBase

MyDerived

因為mylist返回一個std :: vector，它包含一個派生類（MyDerived）的實例作為第二個成員。 奇怪的是，當我打印整個列表時，MyDerived被識別出來。

這是C ++代碼的頭文件：

/* polymorphism.hpp */

#ifndef POLYMORPHISM_HPP
#define POLYMORPHISM_HPP

#include <vector>

class MyBase
{
  public:
    virtual void print() const;
};


class MyDerived : public MyBase
{
  public:
   virtual void print() const;
};


std::vector<MyBase*> mylist();

#endif

這是cpp文件：

#include "polymorphism.hpp"

#include <iostream>
#include <pybind11/stl.h>
#include <pybind11/pybind11.h>

void MyBase::print() const
{ std::cout << "MyBase" << std::endl; }

void MyDerived::print() const
{ std::cout << "MyDerived" << std::endl; }

std::vector<MyBase*> mylist()
{
  std::vector<MyBase*> list(2);
  list[0] = new MyBase();
  list[1] = new MyDerived();
  return list;
}

PYBIND11_MODULE(polymorphism, m) 
{
  pybind11::class_<MyBase>(m, "MyBase")
    .def(pybind11::init<>())
    .def("print", &MyBase::print)
    .def("__repr__", [](const MyBase &a) { return "MyBase"; });

  pybind11::class_<MyDerived, MyBase>(m, "MyDerived")
    .def(pybind11::init<>())
    .def("print", &MyDerived::print)
    .def("__repr__", [](const MyDerived &a) { return "MyDerived"; });

  m.def("mylist", &mylist, "return a list");
}

編輯：更令人驚訝的是，當我刪除MyDerived的“打印”綁定時，我收到以下錯誤消息

[MyBase，MyDerived]

MyBase

Traceback（最近一次調用最后一次）：

文件“test.py”，第8行，in

一個[1] .PRINT（）

AttributeError：'polymorphism.MyDerived'對象沒有屬性'print'

此消息似乎意味着MyDerived在調用錯誤版本的打印時得到了充分認可（如果我理解的話）。

編輯2：這是一個使用蹦床類的版本。 但是，此版本導致相同的錯誤輸出。

/* polymorphism.hpp */
#ifndef POLYMORPHISM_HPP
#define POLYMORPHISM_HPP

#include <vector>
#include <pybind11/stl.h>
#include <pybind11/pybind11.h>

class MyBase
{
  public:
    virtual void print() const;
};


class MyDerived : public MyBase
{
  public:
    virtual void print() const;
};


std::vector<MyBase*> mylist();

class PyMyBase : public MyBase 
{
  public:
    using MyBase::MyBase; // Inherit constructors
    void print() const override { PYBIND11_OVERLOAD(void, MyBase, print ); }
};

class PyMyDerived : public MyDerived 
{
  public:
    using MyDerived::MyDerived; // Inherit constructors
    void print() const override { PYBIND11_OVERLOAD(void, MyDerived, print);}
};

#endif

這是相應的cpp文件：

/* polymorphism.cpp */
#include "polymorphism.hpp"

#include <iostream>

void MyBase::print() const
{ std::cout << "MyBase" << std::endl; }


void MyDerived::print() const
{ std::cout << "MyDerived" << std::endl; }


std::vector<MyBase*> mylist()
{
  std::vector<MyBase*> list(2);
  list[0] = new MyBase();
  list[1] = new MyDerived();
  return list;
}


PYBIND11_MODULE(polymorphism, m) 
{
   pybind11::class_<MyBase, PyMyBase>(m, "MyBase")
     .def(pybind11::init<>())
     .def("print", &MyBase::print)
     .def("__repr__", [](const MyBase &a) { return "MyBase"; });

   pybind11::class_<MyDerived, PyMyDerived>(m, "MyDerived")
     .def(pybind11::init<>())
     .def("print", &MyDerived::print)
     .def("__repr__", [](const MyDerived &a) { return "MyDerived"; });

   m.def("mylist", &mylist, "return a list");
}

Answer 1

我不知道為什么，但是pybind11似乎在mylist()的原始指針有問題。 如果將返回類型更改為vector<unique_ptr<MyBase>>則該示例可正常工作。 以下示例編譯為python模塊example並生成預期輸出。

example.cpp：

#include <pybind11/stl.h>
#include <pybind11/pybind11.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <memory>
#include <vector>

class MyBase {
public:
    virtual void print() const {
        std::cout << "MyBase::print()" << std::endl;
    }
};

class MyDerived : public MyBase {
public:
    virtual void print() const override {
        std::cout << "MyDerived::print()" << std::endl;
    }
};

std::vector<std::unique_ptr<MyBase>> mylist() {
    std::vector<std::unique_ptr<MyBase>> v;
    v.push_back(std::make_unique<MyBase>());
    v.push_back(std::make_unique<MyDerived>());
    return v;
}

PYBIND11_MODULE(example, m) {
    pybind11::class_<MyBase>(m, "MyBase")
        .def(pybind11::init<>())
        .def("print", &MyBase::print)
        .def("__repr__", [](MyBase const&) { return "MyBase"; });

    pybind11::class_<MyDerived>(m, "MyDerived")
        .def(pybind11::init<>())
        .def("print", &MyDerived::print)
        .def("__repr__", [](MyDerived const&) { return "MyDerived"; });

    m.def("mylist", &mylist, "returns a list");
}

python shell：

>>> import example
>>> l = example.mylist()
>>> l[0].print()
MyBase::print()
>>> l[1].print()
MyDerived::print()
