Hobu,

Still looking at the GetHistogram binding, one thing that puzzles me is the CPLErrorReset call. It is there and it is also in all the Operations.i bindings. In Perl that leads to it being called twice (which probably does no harm), because all methods are wrapped by cpl_exceptions.i with it:

CPLErrorReset();
$action
CPLErr eclass = CPLGetLastErrorType();
... check the eclass and possibly throw an exception

But cpl_exceptions.i does not seem to be used by Python, which has its python_exceptions.i. It is very similar to cpl_exceptions.i but lacks the CPLErrorReset() call. I don't understand the comment in python_exceptions.i:

"This was the cpl_exceptions.i code. But since python is the only one different (should support old method as well as new one) it was moved into this file."

Is there a particular reason for not having CPLErrorReset() in the %exception for Python? Does the comment mean that somebody thought of deleting cpl_exceptions.i?

I'm also adding the IF_ERROR_RETURN_NONE specifically for GetHistogram although I think it should probably be the default for Perl. The name is also misleading at least in the Perl case as it really means "do not return the error code (since we're using exceptions)".

Regards,

Ari
