  • Automatic Cross-Module Type Conversions
  • Efficient Function Overloading
  • C++ to Python Exception Translation
  • Default Arguments
  • Keyword Arguments
  • Manipulating Python objects in C++
  • Exporting C++ Iterators as Python Iterators
  • Documentation Strings

See the Boost.Python documentation for details.

Hint : Check out the development version of the documentation to see work in progress.
