Hi,The exceptions message tells you exactly what is going wrong.
I have sip'ed a C++ class and compiled the resulting files with
g++ -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -pipe -fPIC -O2 -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -c -I.. -I. -I/usr/local/include/python2.3 -I/home/jotto/work/hololib/src sipHoloLibcmodule.cpp
g++ -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -pipe -fPIC -O2 -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -c -I.. -I. -I/usr/local/include/python2.3 -I/home/jotto/work/hololib/src sipHoloLibBird.cpp
and then linked everything together with
g++ -shared -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib/qt-x11-free-3.2.3/lib -L/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages -L/usr/local/lib/vtk -lvtkCommon -lvtkRendering -lvtkGraphics -lvtkHybrid -L/usr/lib/qt-x11-free-3.2.3/lib -lqt-mt -o hololib.so *.o /home/jotto/work/hololib/build/*.o
The .o files in /home/jotto/work/hololib/build are C++ .o files that I don't need to access directly from python. Note that I am dynamically linking in qt and VTK.
It compiles and links without errors, but when I copy the hololib.so to python's site-packages, I get the following error when I try to import:
from hololib import *
Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (inithololib)
I try to check the defined symbols in hololib.so with nm:
[EMAIL PROTECTED](~/work/py_hololib/sipcode)$ nm hololib.so | grep initHol 000172a0 T initHoloLib 0002ad28 d _ZZ11initHoloLibE7methods
It seems to me like initHoloLib is defined.
I'm using RedHat 8.0, Python 2.3, SIP 4.0rc2 and gcc 3.2.
Any ideas?
Btw, thank you for all the help I have got so far! I think I'm close to the goal now :-)

Your init function is initHoloLib, but you import hololib which expects an inithololib function.
Either your module name should be HoloLib.so (change the link target to -o HoloLib.so) or your init function should be inithololib (change %Module HoloLib to %Module hololib in your sip file).
