Does boost python support context management using the with statement?  In my case I need to manage __enter__/__exit__ on the c++ side. Could not find any examples for this in the documentation.

Any help appreciated.

There's no explicit support for it, no.

Sorry,

But I think you could implement it like this:  class_<SomeClass>(...) .def("__enter__", &somefunc) .def("__exit__", &someotherfunc) ; Trigve
