[C++-sig] void* questions\thoughts

[Roman Yakovenko]

Hi. There is nice explanation in boost.python FAQs how to export
function that takes\returns
void*. I have 2 questions:

1. Why void_ should be defined in each translation unit? If I understand right
   "translation  unit" is cpp file?

If there is no special reason to define void_ in every translation
unit, then next question:

2. Why boost.python does not define void_ class and does not registrate it?
    BOOST_PYTHON_OPAQUE_SPECIALIZED_TYPE_ID( void_ )


Thanks
