#include <boost/python.hpp>
#include <iostream>

struct Guard
{
  Guard() { std::cout << "default constructor" << std::endl;}
  Guard(Guard const &) { std::cout << "copy constructor" << std::endl;}
  ~Guard() { std::cout << "destructor" << std::endl;}
};

using namespace boost::python;

BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(bpl)
{
  class_<Guard> a("Guard");
  scope().attr("_hidden") = Guard();
}

(As you will see running this code, the object here is passed
 by value, so you'll actually get two. You may want to change
 that...)

HTH,
