[C++-sig] [Py++] wrapping boost python types fails

[Werner Joergensen]

I narrowed down a failure with pyplusplus to this short example:

---------8<---- test.hpp -----
#include "boost/python.hpp"
--------->8---------

---------8<---- generator.py -----
import os
from pyplusplus import module_builder
mb = module_builder.module_builder_t(
    files=["test.hpp"],
        include_paths=["/usr/include/python2.6"]
    )

mb.build_code_creator( module_name='testmodule' )
mb.code_creator.user_defined_directories.append( os.path.abspath('.') )
mb.split_module("split")
mb.write_module( os.path.join( os.path.abspath('.'), 'generated.cpp' ) )
--------->8---------

Running "python generator.py" gives these errors:
---------8<---- output -----
...

I need to use the python objects like list, str, tuple in my python extension modules. So can you help me to get the example running? I tried it on two different systems, one with gcc 4.2.4 and one with gcc 4.3.3. Other relevant packages are: gccxml 0.9 (cvs from 2008-05-30), boost 1.39.0, pygccxml 1.0, pyplusplus 1.0. Can you tell me which combination of these packages can compile the short example?

Thanks
