But this also means that you need to have the class definitions on the receiving end, which means the receiving end must be in Python. Unless you special-case some set of Python classes and their equivalents in the other language, you are limited to the primitive builtins like string, dict, list, float, etc. In that case, you might as well just use json as your transport format. --Ned.
