I got ctypes installed and passing its own tests. But I cannot get the shared library to load. I am using Mac OS X 10.4.11, Python 2.4 running through the Terminal.
I am using Albert Strasheim's example on http://scipy.org/Cookbook/Ctypes2 except that I had to remove the defined 'extern' for FOO_API since the gcc compiler complained about two 'externs' (I don't really understand what the extern does here anyway). My make file for generating the library is simple, # ---- Link --------------------------- test1ctypes.so: test1ctypes.o test1ctypes.mak gcc -bundle -flat_namespace -undefined suppress -o test1ctypes.so test1ctypes.o # ---- gcc C compile ------------------ test1ctypes.o: test1ctypes.c test1ctypes.h test1ctypes.mak gcc -c test1ctypes.c -o test1ctypes.o This generates the file test1ctypes.so. But when I try to load it import numpy as N import ctypes as C _test1 = N.ctypeslib.load_library('test1ctypes', '.') I get the error message, OSError: dlopen(/Users/loupecora/test1ctypes.dylib, 6): image not found I've been googling for two hours trying to find the problem or other examples that would give me a clue, but no luck. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for any clues. -- Lou Pecora, my views are my own. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss a thing.
