Eric,

As the docs say, libs/python/test/comprehensive[.h,.cpp,.py] contains a
working example of nearly everything ;-)

Subject: [boost] enums in python.boost

Does anyone have a working sample with enums, 'cause this code below gives
an compile error with MSVC6 SP5

----------- code snipped below

enum KEY
{
 TAB    =8,
 CR    =10,
 ESCAPE   =27,
 SPACE   =32,
};

boost::python::enum_as_int_converters<KEY> thekeys;

this_module.add(boost::python::to_python(TAB), "TAB");

--------------- compile error message
