See http://docs.python.org/api/object.html#l2h-247 : Note in particular "The C arguments are described by a Py_BuildValue() format string that should produce a tuple" and "Note that if you only pass PyObject * args, PyObject_CallMethodObjArgs is a faster alternative." So, If all your arguments are PyObject pointers, use PyObject_CallMethodObjArgs instead. Otherwise, use PyObject_CallMethod and consult the documentation for Py_BuildValue on how to construct the format string. Hope this helps, Carsten. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
