I can't seem to get this to work:
This little program just embeds python, creates a module using boost, and
attempts to add it to the list of built-in modules.
//-------------------------------------------------------
#include <boost/python.hpp>
using namespace boost::python;
char const* greet()
{
return "hello, world";
}
BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(hello)
{
def("greet", greet);
}
int main()
{
PyImport_AppendInittab("hello", inithello);
Py_Initialize();
return 0;
}
//-------------------------------------------------------
But when I attempt to build using bjam, I get:
-------------------------------------------------------
...found 1629 targets...
...updating 3 targets...
compile-c-c++ bin\msvc-10.0\debug\threading-multi\BoostPy3DEngine.obj

-------------------------------------------------------
My understanding is that the BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE macro is supposed to create
the inithello function when it builds the hello module... but the compiler
doesn't seem to be able to find it.
The above code compiles without complaint if I leave out the line:
PyImport_AppendInittab("hello", inithello);
I am using bjam with the --toolset=msvc switch (its the only way I know how
to build with boost). And I have MSVC version 10.0.30319.1 installed, and
this is a Windows XP machine.
Anyone know what might be causing the above error?
Thanks for any help you can give!
-Mike
