Thanks for your points, I will try explain my problem better:
In my library I have a parent->child control then when the parent is
deleted all children is deleted too.
but in python I would like change this behavior, if there is some
python object using my child I will not delete this object.
I see. What if your parent held its children via shared_ptr<> objects ?
If you then export the child's type with shared_ptr<> as HeldType, i.e.
class_<BaseClass, shared_ptr<BaseClass>, ...>
you should get what you want, since now all the communication across the
language boundary is using shared_ptr<>, and the ref counts are
correctly shared. With that, when the Python wrapper itself gets deleted
by the Python runtime, it will decrement the shared_ptr<> counter you
passed it. As your parents do the same, they can happily coexist with
python references to the same objects.
