Thanks it works fine...how do check the return response...
Using extract<string> or <extract<char*> doesn't seem to help..

Am I doing something wrong ? Here is the code:

boost::python::object response =
gpPythonHttp->attr("urlopen")(m_sURI.c_str(),strXMLOutput.c_str());
boost::python::exec("result = read()", response);
  std::string res =
boost::python::extract<std::string>(response["result"]);

boost::python::object http_module = boost::python::import("httplib");

http_module.attr("HTTP")("http://www.abc.com");

ditto, etc.

You can do that too.
