It looks good. Have you tried contacting the actual boost.python mantainer and maybe propose merge with the boost.python or make a boost.python3 from it? It would be shame not incorporate the useful stuff in boost.python. > >Best, >Wenzel >_______________________________________________ >Cplusplus-sig mailing list >Cplusplus-sig@python.org >https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cplusplus-sig > > -- Trigve _______________________________________________ Cplusplus-sig mailing list Cplusplus-sig@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cplusplus-sig
