Its goals and syntax are similar to the excellent 55Boost.Python library by David Abrahams: to minimize boilerplate code in 56traditional extension modules by inferring type information using compile-time 57introspection. 58 59The main issue with Boost.Python-and the reason for creating such a similar 60project-is Boost. Boost is an enormously large and complex suite of utility 61libraries that works with almost every C++ compiler in existence. This 62compatibility has its cost: arcane template tricks and workarounds are 63necessary to support the oldest and buggiest of compiler specimens. Now that 64C++11-compatible compilers are widely available, this heavy machinery has 65become an excessively large and unnecessary dependency. 66 67Think of this library as a tiny self-contained version of Boost.Python with 68everything stripped away that isn't relevant for binding generation. Without 69comments, the core header files only require ~2.5K lines of code and depend on 70Python (2.7 or 3.x) and the C++ standard library. This compact implementation 71was possible thanks to some of the new C++11 language features (specifically: 72tuples, lambda functions and variadic templates). Since its creation, this 73library has grown beyond Boost.Python in many ways, leading to dramatically 74simpler binding code in many common situations.""") 75
