[C++-sig] Boost.Python: Wrapping functions with std::ostream & and std::istream & arguments

[Bilokon, Paul]

Many thanks, Stefan,

Do you reckon there is some open source code / code snippets that wrap
Python "file" objects?

It's not entirely trivial to wrap these classes. And since they are so
ubiquitous, I'm sure someone has already done this?

Best wishes,
Paul

Yes, if you provide wrappers or converters for those stream objects,
too.

That depends on what kind of streams you expect there. You may wrap by
types that provide the python 'file' protocol interface, for example.
