[Boost-users] Can Python "httplib" module be directly embedded in C++ ?

Hello,
I am trying to use python to do my XML post ?
Can I do this by directly calling import on the httplib like this and
setting parameters ?

ex:
boost::python::object
http_module((boost::python::handle<>(boost::python::borrowed(PyImport_Ad
dModule("httplib")))));

boost::python::<....some kind of python compile time...interface...>  h
= < some kind of cast...>   

http_module.HTTP("http://www.abc.com");
h.putrequest('POST', selector)
h.putheader('content-type', content_type)
h.putheader('content-length', str(len(body)))
h.endheaders()
h.send(body)

 
Or should the actual code for this object reside in a text file and I
should call exec_file ?

Thanks in Advance.
