How to convert class type in C++ into PyObject type?

I need to embed Python in C++ and I am confused of the class type exchange between Python and C++.

If I have a C++ class as follow:

class MyClass{
public:
    void printMessage();
private:
    int m_iVal;
    std::string m_sVal;
};

How can I convert the instance of MyClass into PyObject? Thank you very much!

If you use the model named ctypes, you can't convert c++ class type to PyObject type, but you can convert c++ structure type to PyObject type which based on a python class named Structure in ctypes model. More

see 15.17.1.10. Structures and unions. And there is another way to embed Python use C++, you should use this line #include <Python.h> in your c++ program.More
