If I try to do that by adding this:

  to_python_converter<boost::uuids::uuid, uuid_to_python>();
  to_python_converter<boost::uuids::uuid&, uuid_to_python>()

I get a compile error:

/opt/local/include/boost/python/converter/as_to_python_function.hpp:21:84: error: 'type name' declared as a pointer to a reference of type 'boost::uuids::uuid &' static void convert_function_must_take_value_or_const_reference(U(*)(T), int, T* = 0) {}

which suggests that to_python_converter doesn't really like to see references.


Unfortunately the convert function doesn't like non-const references; const references (and values) should work fine, though.

Cheers,
