Hi,

Anybody knows how do I get the Python object of a newly created object of a Boost.Python extension class object, just after the call of the constructor, before the pointer return to Python?

Your best bet? Use old-style polymorphism support: struct WrappedFoo : Foo { WrappedFoo(PyObject* self, <arguments to Foo's ctor here>) { } }; class_<Foo,WrappedFoo>("Foo") ... ;

I was thinking how to do it, but I am a bit confused. I suppose those I could use customized call policies, but I am not sure neither know how to do it.

Me neither ;-)

Another thing that I saw interesting is this "make_constructor" function.

You could, but that would be the complicated approach. HTH, -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
