1binary_ufunc 2============ 3 4.. contents :: Table of Contents 5 6A ``binary_ufunc`` is a struct used as an intermediate step to broadcast two arguments so that a C++ function can be converted to a ufunc like function 7 8 ``<boost/python/numpy/ufunc.hpp>`` contains the ``binary_ufunc`` structure definitions 9 10 11synopsis 12-------- 13 14:: 15 16 namespace boost 17 { 18 namespace python 19 { 20 namespace numpy 21 { 22 23 template <typename TBinaryFunctor, 24 typename TArgument1=typename TBinaryFunctor::first_argument_type, 25 typename TArgument2=typename TBinaryFunctor::second_argument_type, 26 typename TResult=typename TBinaryFunctor::result_type> 27 28 struct binary_ufunc 29 { 30 31 static object call(TBinaryFunctor & self, 32 object const & input1, 33 object const & input2, 34 object const & output); 35 36 static object make(); 37 }; 38 39 } 40 } 41 } 42 43 44constructors 45------------ 46 47:: 48 49 struct example_binary_ufunc 50 { 51 typedef any_valid first_argument_type; 52 typedef any_valid second_argument_type; 53 typedef any_valid result_type; 54 }; 55 56:Requirements: The ``any_valid`` type must be defined using typedef as a valid C++ type in order to use the struct methods correctly 57 58:Note: The struct must be exposed as a Python class, and an instance of the class must be created to use the ``call`` method corresponding to the ``__call__`` attribute of the Python object 59 60accessors 61--------- 62 63:: 64 65 template <typename TBinaryFunctor, 66 typename TArgument1=typename TBinaryFunctor::first_argument_type, 67 typename TArgument2=typename TBinaryFunctor::second_argument_type, 68 typename TResult=typename TBinaryFunctor::result_type> 69 static object call(TBinaryFunctor & self, 70 object const & input, 71 object const & output); 72 73:Requires: Typenames ``TBinaryFunctor`` and optionally ``TArgument1`` and ``TArgument2`` for argument type and ``TResult`` for result type 74 75:Effects: Passes a Python object to the underlying C++ functor after broadcasting its arguments 76 77:: 78 79 template <typename TBinaryFunctor, 80 typename TArgument1=typename TBinaryFunctor::first_argument_type, 81 typename TArgument2=typename TBinaryFunctor::second_argument_type, 82 typename TResult=typename TBinaryFunctor::result_type> 83 static object make(); 84 85:Requires: Typenames ``TBinaryFunctor`` and optionally ``TArgument1`` and ``TArgument2`` for argument type and ``TResult`` for result type 86 87:Returns: A Python function object to call the overloaded () operator in the struct (in typical usage) 88 89Example(s) 90---------- 91 92:: 93 94 namespace p = boost::python; 95 namespace np = boost::python::numpy; 96 97 struct BinarySquare 98 { 99 typedef double first_argument_type; 100 typedef double second_argument_type; 101 typedef double result_type; 102 103 double operator()(double a,double b) const { return (a*a + b*b) ; } 104 }; 105 106 p::object ud = p::class_<BinarySquare, boost::shared_ptr<BinarySquare> >("BinarySquare").def("__call__", np::binary_ufunc<BinarySquare>::make()); 107 p::object inst = ud(); 108 result_array = inst.attr("__call__")(demo_array,demo_array) ; 109 std::cout << "Square of list with binary ufunc is " << p::extract <char const * > (p::str(result_array)) << std::endl ; 110 111
