Hello. I'm trying to embed python to an application. I did that with success and I'm using boost.python to make some bindings to my API.

What I would like, is that the interpreter has access to my objects at runtime, namely, I don't want to create objects from python code but to use the c++ objects, created in my c++ application, from python (and I have wrappers for those in boost.python).

If you're not limited to using Python, Lua has a very flexible binding system. It has a userdata type that can be made to access C/C++ data members or functions.

I've used python because there is boost.python for it. And, by the way, I managed to make it work :-). Now I can access my objects. It was not very difficult. And very useful. Anyway, thanks for the piece of advice, I also considered lua some time ago.
