Description keith@sloan-home.co.uk 2018-12-29 21:19:04 CET 
If I execute dir(Geant4) from python one of the functions listed is G4VSolid yet if I try to call G4VSolid I get the message 

sld_brep_box = G4VSolid()
RuntimeError: This class cannot be instantiated from Python
Comment 1 keith@sloan-home.co.uk 2019-01-14 18:01:11 CET 
I now see that G4VSolid is a virtual/abstract function and therefore is not callable.
