<h2><a name="introduction"></a>Introduction</h2>
<p><code><boost/python/def_visitor.hpp></code> provides a generic visitation
interface through which the <a href="class.html">class_</a> <b>def</b> member
functionality can be extended non-intrusively to avoid cluttering the <a href="class.html">class_</a>
interface. It declares the <code>def_visitor<T> </code>class template,
which is parameterized on the derived type <tt>DerivedVisitor</tt>, which provides
the actual <b>def</b> functionality through its <b>visit</b> member functions.
<h2><a name="classes"></a>Classes</h2>
<h3><a name="def_visitor-spec"></a>Class template <code>def_visitor<DerivedVisitor></code></h3>
<p>The class def_visitor is a base class paramaterized by its derived class. The
def_visitor class is a protocol class. Its derived class, DerivedVisitor, is
expected to have a member function visit. The def_visitor class is never instantiated
directly. Instead, an instance of its subclass, DerivedVisitor, is passed
on as an argument to the <a href="class.html">class_</a> def member function.

template parameter is expected to:
<ul>
<li>be privately derived from def_visitor</li>
<li>grant friend access to class def_visitor_access</li>
<li>define either or both visit member functions listed in the table below:</li>
