[PyKDE] SIP vs Boost.Python?

[Niac Neb]

James,

Where might I find a complete example of this?  Is
there a WIKI or site where developers have posted
their examples?

Thanks for the reply.  My interest in SIP has
increased.  Seems it might be easier to code to than
Boost.Python.  However, I've not found examples.
