[C++-sig] Re: Question regarding objects of enums

Unfortunately I don't understand the solution to the problem,
but I need something similar to be done 
in the value_holder.hpp( probably the BOOST_PYTHON_UNFORWARD_LOCAL
macro)
since I am getting:

D:\Shared\boost_1_31_0\boost\boost/python/object/forward.hpp(175) :
error C2893: Failed to specialize function template 'const T &__cdecl
boost::python::objects::do_unforward(const T &,...)'
        With the following template arguments:
        'enum View::Display::Option'
       
D:\Shared\boost_1_31_0\boost\boost/python/object/make_holder.hpp(82) :
see reference to function template instantiation '__thiscall
boost::python::objects::value_holder<struct
View::Display>::boost::python::objects::value_holder<struct
View::Display>(struct _object *,enum View::Display::Option)' being
compiled

class boost::reference_wrapper<T> &,int)' : could not deduce template
argument for 'const class boost::reference_wrapper<T> &' from 'enum
