[C++-sig] Avoiding copying non-copyables

[Simon Pickles]

Hi,

I have a c++ class which uses boost::thread and boost::mutex.
I cannot expose this class directly with boost::python, since mutex is 
non-copyable.

so I did this:

/////////////////////////// C++
class ResourceManager
{};

ResourceManager* ResourceManagerFactory()
{
        return new ResourceManager();
}

def("ResourceManagerFactory", ResourceManagerFactory, 
return_value_policy<manage_new_object>());

////////////////////


This compiles but I at python runtime I get:

##### PYTHON
self.resourceManager = ResourceManagerFactory()
TypeError: No Python class registered for C++ class class ResourceManager

#####

Am I doing this wrong? Wrong return policy?

Thanks

Simon
