[Boost-users] [python] Py_Finalize(): To call, or not to call?

Hi,

I remember reading in the boost documentation a while back that
Py_Finalize() should not be called when using Boost.Python to embed or
extend python. I cannot find that documentation again, unfortunately. Is
this a true statement or is it safe to call Py_Finalize()? If not, why can
this not be called? How does Boost.Python handle finalizing the interpreter?

Thanks.
