Does anyone have an example of boost's use of tuples? For example, I am wanting to construct tuples in C++ and pass them on to Python (these will consist of basic types (const char*'s, integers, etc.) or object values. Look in the file: boost/libs/python/test/tuple.cpp You can probably learn a lot of tricks by spending 30 minutes to scan through all the *.cpp files in the boost/libs/python/test directory.

I read the OP as asking about how to translate boost::tuple, a completely C++ generalization of std::pair (rather than boost::python::tuple, a wrapper for native Python tuples) to/from Python's tuples.

Which is it?
