- - Finished improved support for
boost::shared_ptr. Now
- any wrapped object of C++ class X can be converted
- automatically to shared_ptr<X>, regardless of how it
- was wrapped. The shared_ptr will manage the lifetime of
- the Python object which supplied the X, rather than just
- the X object itself, and when such a
- shared_ptr is converted back to Python, the original
- Python object will be returned.
