[section boost/python/operators.hpp]
[section Introduction]
<boost/python/operators.hpp> provides types and functions for automatically generating Python [@http://www.python.org/doc/ref/specialnames.html special methods] from the corresponding C++ constructs. Most of these constructs are operator expressions, hence the name. To use the facility, substitute the [link high_level_components.boost_python_operators_hpp.object_self self] object for an object of the class type being wrapped in the expression to be exposed, and pass the result to [link high_level_components.boost_python_class_hpp.class_template_class_t_bases_hel.class_template_class_modifier_fu class_<>::def()]. Much of what is exposed in this header should be considered part of the implementation, so is not documented in detail here.

[section Class `self_ns::self_t`]
`self_ns::self_t` is the actual type of the [link high_level_components.boost_python_operators_hpp.object_self self] object. The library isolates `self_t` in its own namespace, `self_ns`, in order to prevent the generalized operator templates which operate on it from being found by argument-dependent lookup in other contexts. This should be considered an implementation detail, since users should never have to mention `self_t` directly.

The tables below describe the methods generated when the results of the expressions described are passed as arguments to [link high_level_components.boost_python_class_hpp.class_template_class_t_bases_hel.class_template_class_modifier_fu class_<>::def()]. `x` is an object of the class type being wrapped.
[section `self_t` inplace operators]
In the table below, If `r` is an object of type [link high_level_components.boost_python_operators_hpp.class_template_other other<T>], `y` is an object of type `T`; otherwise, `y` is an object of the same type as `r`.

[section `self_t` comparison functions]
In the tables below, if `r` is of type [link high_level_components.boost_python_operators_hpp.class_self_ns_self_t self_t], `y` is an object of the same type as `x`;
if `l` or `r` is an object of type [link high_level_components.boost_python_operators_hpp.class_template_other other<T>], `y` is an object of type `T`;
otherwise, `y` is an object of the same type as `l` or `r`.
`l` is never of type [link high_level_components.boost_python_operators_hpp.class_self_ns_self_t self_t].

The column of Python Expressions illustrates the expressions that will be supported in Python for objects convertible to the types of x and y. The secondary operation arises due to Python's [@http://www.python.org/doc/ref/customization.html#l2h-89 reflection rules] for rich comparison operators, and are only used when the corresponding operation is not defined as a method of the y object.

[section Class template `other`]
Instances of `other<T>` can be used in operator expressions with [link high_level_components.boost_python_operators_hpp.object_self self]; the result is equivalent to the same expression with a `T` object in place of `other<T>`. Use `other<T>` to prevent construction of a `T` object in case it is heavyweight, when no constructor is available, or simply for clarity.

[section Class template `detail::operator_`]
Instantiations of `detail::operator_<>` are used as the return type of operator expressions involving [link high_level_components.boost_python_operators_hpp.object_self self]. This should be considered an implementation detail and is only documented here as a way of showing how the result of self-expressions match calls to [link high_level_components.boost_python_class_hpp.class_template_class_t_bases_hel.class_template_class_modifier_fu `class_<>::def()`].
