[section boost/python/docstring_options.hpp]
[section Introduction]
Boost.Python supports user-defined docstrings with automatic appending of C++ signatures. These features are enabled by default. The class docstring_options is available to selectively suppress the user-defined docstrings, signatures, or both.
[endsect]
[section Class `docstring_options`]
Controls the appearance of docstrings of wrapped functions and member functions for the life-time of the instance. The instances are noncopyable to eliminate the possibility of surprising side effects.

``namespace boost { namespace python {

  class docstring_options : boost::noncopyable

  public:
    docstring_options(bool show_all=true);

[section Class docstring_options destructor]
``~docstring_options();``
[variablelist
[[Effects][Restores the previous state of the docstring options. In particular, if `docstring_options` instances are in nested C++ scopes the settings effective in the enclosing scope are restored. If the last `docstring_options` instance goes out of scope the default "all on" settings are restored.]]]

These member functions dynamically change the appearance of docstrings in the code that follows. The `*_user_defined()` and `*_signatures()` member functions are provided for fine-grained control. The `*_all()` member functions are convenient shortcuts to manipulate all settings simultaneously.

[section Example]
[section Docstring options defined at compile time]
``
#include <boost/python/module.hpp>
#include <boost/python/def.hpp>
#include <boost/python/docstring_options.hpp>

void foo() {}

{
    using namespace boost::python;
    docstring_options doc_options(DEMO_DOCSTRING_SHOW_ALL);
    def("foo", foo, "foo doc");

``
If compiled with `-DDEMO_DOCSTRING_SHOW_ALL=true`:
``
>>> import demo
>>> print demo.foo.__doc__
foo() -> None : foo doc
C++ signature:
    foo(void) -> void
``
If compiled with `-DDEMO_DOCSTRING_SHOW_ALL=false`:
``
>>> import demo

None
