It's probably fairly straightforward to do this using Boost.Iostreams, by creating a model of Sink: include #include <algorithm> // min #include <iosfwd> // streamsize #include // sink_tag #include // stream #include // format class pysys_stdout_sink { public: typedef char char_type; typedef boost::iostreams::sink_tag category; std::streamsize write( const char* s, std::streamsize n ) { // PySys_WriteStdout truncates to 1000 chars static const std::streamsize MAXSIZE = 1000; std::streamsize written = std::min( n, MAXSIZE ); PySys_WriteStdout( (boost::format("%%.%1%s") % written).str().c_str(), s ); return written; } }; boost::iostreams::stream pysys_stdout; int main() { Py_Initialize(); pysys_stdout << "Hello, Python world!\n"; } HTH, Christopher

Hi Christopher and Early, ...I thought there is some standard Boost.Python stream somewhere anyway and didn't expect this kind of solution :) The code became longer than before (at least when calculating the definition of the sink class also) - but much more elegant :) Before: std::ostringstream oss; oss << "Hello, Python world!" << std::endl; std::string cs = oss.str(); PySys_WriteStdout(cs.c_str()); Now: boost::iostreams::stream pysys_stdout; pysys_stdout.open(pysys_stdout_sink()); pysys_stdout << "Hello, Python world!" << std::endl; (I had to add the line: pysys_stdout.open(pysys_stdout_sink()); to make it work.) Thank you very much for your help, Dietrich --- Here the code to play around with on unix/linux - maybe it is helpful for some other person with the same problem: mkdir -p /tmp/pysys_stdout cd /tmp/pysys_stdout cat > pysys_stdout.cpp < #include <algorithm> // min #include <iosfwd> // streamsize #include // sink_tag #include // stream #include // format class pysys_stdout_sink { public: typedef char char_type; typedef boost::iostreams::sink_tag category; std::streamsize write( const char* s, std::streamsize n ) { // PySys_WriteStdout truncates to 1000 chars static const std::streamsize MAXSIZE = 1000; std::streamsize written = std::min( n, MAXSIZE ); PySys_WriteStdout( (boost::format("%%.%1%s") % written).str().c_str(), s ); return written; } }; boost::iostreams::stream pysys_stdout; int main() { Py_Initialize(); pysys_stdout.open(pysys_stdout_sink()); pysys_stdout << "Hello, Python world!\n"; } /* fin */ FIN touch project-root.jam cat > Jamfile <

It's probably fairly straightforward to do this using Boost.Iostreams, by creating a model of Sink:

include

#include <algorithm> // min #include <iosfwd> // streamsize #include // sink_tag #include // stream #include // format

class pysys_stdout_sink { public: typedef char char_type; typedef boost::iostreams::sink_tag category;

std::streamsize write( const char* s, std::streamsize n ) { // PySys_WriteStdout truncates to 1000 chars static const std::streamsize MAXSIZE = 1000;

std::streamsize written = std::min( n, MAXSIZE ); PySys_WriteStdout( (boost::format("%%.%1%s") % written).str().c_str(), s );

return written; } };

boost::iostreams::stream pysys_stdout;

int main() { Py_Initialize(); pysys_stdout << "Hello, Python world!\n"; }
