<h2>Synopsis</h2>
Welcome to version 2 of <b>Boost.Python</b>, a C++ library which enables
seamless interoperability between C++ and the <a href=
"http://www.python.org">Python</a> programming language. The new version
has been rewritten from the ground up, with a more convenient and
flexible interface, and many new capabilities, including support for:
<ul>
<li>References and Pointers</li>
<li>Globally Registered Type Coercions</li>
<li>Automatic Cross-Module Type Conversions</li>
<li>Efficient Function Overloading</li>
<li>C++ to Python Exception Translation</li>
<li>Default Arguments</li>
<li>Keyword Arguments</li>
<li>Manipulating Python objects in C++</li>
<li>Exporting C++ Iterators as Python Iterators</li>
<li>Documentation Strings</li>
</ul>
The development of these features was funded in part by grants to <a
href="http://www.boost-consulting.com">Boost Consulting</a> from the <a
href="http://www.llnl.gov/">Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories</a>
and by the <a href="http://cci.lbl.gov/">Computational Crystallography
Initiative</a> at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratories.
