Thanks for your support. Actually I need to pass data from Python to C++. I am required to pass Python functions as part of the structure in a way that these get executed somewhere in C++. Now that I know that this can not be done in a straightforward manner, I am looking for a workaround. I would like to know whether it is at all possible to pass a Python function, as data, to C++ using boost-python. What would be the C++ type of a structure element that would be able to hold a Python function when passed using boost-python? To clarify, if I get the C++ API changed to something like struct foo { public: int a, b; char *str; foobar func1; foobar func2; }; What type (in C++) would foobar be so that I am able to pass a python function for func1 and func2?
