    # This function finds all connected components in a graph using the graph-tool library.
    
    from graph_tool.all import Graph
    from graph_tool.topology import connected_components
    
    # Ensure the input is a graph-tool graph
    if not isinstance(graph, Graph):
        raise ValueError("Input must be a graph-tool Graph object.")
    
    # Compute the connected components
    comp = connected_components(graph)
    
    # Return the connected components
    return comp
