Could you give me an example? I tried something like: #include <vector> #include <string> #include <boost/python.hpp> #include <boost/python/suite/indexing/vector_indexing_suite.hpp> struct ExampleStruct { std::vector<std::string> elements; }; class_<A>("A", init<>()) .def_readonly("elements", vector_indexing_suite<std::vector<std::string> >()) ; Of course the above code is wrong. My question is how should I initialize the vector_indexing_suite. Thank you very much in advance Cheers Tiago On Tue, Feb 3, 2009 at 6:31 PM, Stefan Seefeld <seefeld@sympatico.ca> wrote:

Hello all,
I am new to boost::python. I have access to a C++ library which I want to expose to python using boost. One of the structs I want to expose is something like:
#include <vector> struct ExampleStruct { std::vector<std::string> elements; };
I would like to expose this class but I like to avoid having to write a wrapper that would inefficiently have to copy the vector contents to a boost::python::list member. Is there a way to do this?
You may use the indexing-suite to expose the above as a container (with iterators etc.). However, note that strings in Python are immutable, so you can't modify them in-place.
Regards, Stefan
