  1. Limitations
  2. ###########
  3. pybind11 strives to be a general solution to binding generation, but it also has
  4. certain limitations:
  5. - pybind11 casts away ``const``-ness in function arguments and return values.
  6. This is in line with the Python language, which has no concept of ``const``
  7. values. This means that some additional care is needed to avoid bugs that
  8. would be caught by the type checker in a traditional C++ program.
  9. - Multiple inheritance relationships on the C++ side cannot be mapped to
  10. Python.
  11. Both of these features could be implemented but would lead to a significant
  12. increase in complexity. I've decided to draw the line here to keep this project
  13. simple and compact. Users who absolutely require these features are encouraged
  14. to fork pybind11.
