Hi Thomas, Thank you for your answer! Actually this would be the simplest way to share TopoDS objects, but what if I want to control a pyocc script from C++? I mean I want to create pyocc objects from C++ and run python codes from C++ (but I dont want to access any data members of the objects)? I don't want to share any other objects, but TopoDS objects, but I want to control them from C++, so I need a quite strong interoperation between the GUI (which is written in C++) and python. Is this possible somehow? (I want to use pyocc because of it's runtime features and serialization capabilities, this is why I don't want to write the whole stuff in C++) I know this question is not strongly related to the pyocc project, but you have serious experience in C++/python interop.
