[Boost-users] [python] Passing pointers as arguments without copying.

Subject: [Boost-users] [python] Passing pointers as arguments without copying.

Hello. The question is simple, but reading the documentation I cannot
understand how
to do this:

class MyClass : boost::noncopyable {
    void f(MyClass2 * c2);
};

MyClass2 is not copyable either. So I want to
be able to wrap that function, but avoid the copying of
MyClass2 when called from python. I want to pass the c++
object directly, not a copy of it.

I'm not sure if this can be done with ptr() or some kind of call policy,
but I don't understand the documentation 100%.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
