Hi there, I would like to know what is the status of the BGL-Python Bindings project? The Boost 1.53 document says that "The Python bindings for the BGL are now part of a separate project http://www.osl.iu.edu/~dgregor/bgl-python/" and links to http://www.osl.iu.edu/~dgregor/bgl-python/ On that page I find that the latest version is 0.9 which was released in 2005. So it means the BGL-Python Binding project is not on going? Is the BGL-Python Bindings 0.9 compatible to Boost 1.53 ? Or any other ways to use Boost graph functionalities in python?
I don't think there are any plans to develop the BGL python bindings any further. However they are usable in their current state. I would recommend using the (slightly newer) svn version (https://svn.osl.iu.edu/svn/projects_viz/bgl-python) rather than 0.9 as it has an improved property map mechanism (http://www.langreiter.com/space/bgl-python-notes). If you do use them and have any trouble compiling them just ask here. I wonder if they should not be added to boost.python as an example. Cheers, John.
