Hi Gustavo,
Hmm. OK, if I read that page correctly what I would need in order to
emulate a python sequence, mapping, or number is the ability to
register PySequenceMethods, PyMappingMethods, or PyNumberMethods
then? Maybe I'll dig around in the code and see if this is difficult
to add. It would certainly be useful for what I'm trying to do!
Mike.

Two curious things I noted about wrapping "std::vector" myself:
1. I can't seem to get indexing access to work, even though I wrap
an indexing operation with the python name "__getitem__"
2. I also can't get python's len function to work, even if I
provide "__len__" as follows:
veci.add_method("size", "int", [], custom_name="__len__")
Have you been able to make either of those methods work?
It won't work because those are special methods in C/C++ side;
Python extension types use a "slots" mechanism for this kind of
thing, see http:// www. python.org/doc/2.6/c-api/typeobj.html
