Drop injector code example from tutorials.

This example depends on the behaviour of ```__metaclass__```. This has
changed in python 3, and the example no longer works. Removing example
code as suggested, see #210 for more details and possible alternatives.

Closes #210.

* Minimize the need to recompile
* Rapid prototyping (you can move the code to C++ if required without changing the interface)
You can even add a little syntactic sugar with the use of metaclasses. Let's
create a special metaclass that "injects" methods in other classes.
# The one Boost.Python uses for all wrapped classes.
# You can use here any class exported by Boost instead of "point"
BoostPythonMetaclass = point.__class__
class injector(object):
class __metaclass__(BoostPythonMetaclass):
def __init__(self, name, bases, dict):
for b in bases:
if type(b) not in (self, type):
for k,v in dict.items():
setattr(b,k,v)
return type.__init__(self, name, bases, dict)
# inject some methods in the point foo
class more_point(injector, point):
def __repr__(self):
return 'Point(x=%s, y=%s)' % (self.x, self.y)
def foo(self):
print 'foo!'
Now let's see how it got:
>>> print point()
Point(x=10, y=10)
>>> point().foo()
foo!
Another useful idea is to replace constructors with factory functions:
_point = point
