Dear Alexander and cython list,

the same question, different approach

a) I compiled and installed my python module with these two commands
C:\Temporal\source\Cython_ext> python OK_setup_windows.py build_ext
C:\Temporal\source\Cython_ext> python OK_setup_windows.py install

b) Testing my module in IPython
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In [5]: cd c:\
c:\

In [6]: import okriging_py as ok
------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<ipython console>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.


In [7]: cd C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages
C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages

In [8]: import okriging_py as ok

In [9]:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

as you can see the module works if we call it from the source directory.

my question are:
a) where is the problem
b) how to distribute my module without this (possible system configuration) error

my OS is  windows 7 (probably with win xp compatibility)

sorry about my ignorance (I am more Linux Debian user...)

Regards
Adrian

I'm a little unclear on the big picture here. Are you trying to
distribute a module (a .pyd / .dll) that you or someone else can
import from a .py script, or are you looking to compile a .exe that
runs your cython code on execution?

Just interpreting the error you're describing (ImportError: DLL load
failed: could not be found),  the dynamic linker couldn't find a
library it needed. Most likely this is either a symptom of missing
dependencies or a path problem. Here's my suggestions for diagnosing
and fixing the problem:

Missing Dependencies:
     One very simple way to confirm that all the dependencies of your
cython module are
     available is to point the dependency walker utility[1] at it, and
look for missing DLLs.

Directory Structure:
     Is the .pyd file you built from your cython module in the
PYTHONPATH (or your current
     working directory? If it's not, there's your issue.

Hope that helps!

Best,
-Alex
