Python and Boost.

[KraftDiner]

Hi, I'm trying to call a C++ class from python.
I've looked around and the solution would appear to be boost.
I'm not sure but maybe I've downloaded and installed the entire boost
library,
when there is probably a separate tar ball for python / C++
integration.
Can someone please point me to a tar ball for mac os x so that I can
call
my C++ class from Python?

Right!

It is not clear what you are asking for.

You can download the tar ball from boost site.
After this use bcp(http://boost.org/tools/bcp/bcp.html) utility to extract
boost.python and its dependencies.

After this you can read tutorials and to start working.

Anyway, it is better to ask Boost.Python related questions on it's mailing list:
