Hello, has anyone used boost.python on OSX and can help me or point me to "hello world"-style example of a c++ - extension in boost.python that works on OSX.
I have used boost.python on linux and am porting the app from linux to osx. Since the app uses a boost.python - extension module its essential for me to get the extension working. At the Moment everything compiles but i cant import the extension in python. I already posted on C++-sig but didn't get response so far. http://mail.python.org/pipermail/c++-sig/2007-February/011918.html My Situation: OS: PPC Mac OS X 10.4.8 Python: python-2.4.4-macosx2006-10-18.dmg from http://pythonmac.org/packages/py24-fat/dmg/ (this is a framework build) Boost: 1.33.1 build from source (./configure && make) i am building my extension by invoking: g++ -dynamic myextension.cpp -I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Headers -I/System/Library/Frameworks/GLUT.framework/Headers -I/usr/include -I/Users/nies/src/boost_1_33_1 -c -o myextension.o and g++ -v -dynamiclib -framework Python -framework OpenGL -framework GLUT -L/Users/nies/src/boost_1_33_1/bin/boost/libs/python/build/libboost_python.dylib/darwin/release/shared-linkable-true/ -lboost_python-1_33_1 myextension.o -o myextension.dylib this compiles and when i try to import the extension in pythonw: Python 2.4.4 (#1, Oct 18 2006, 10:34:39) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5341)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import myextension Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? ImportError: No module named myextension as far as i understand this is because python searches for .so files. when i symbolic-link myextension.so -> myextension.dylib and than try to import: Python 2.4.4 (#1, Oct 18 2006, 10:34:39) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5341)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import myextension Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? ImportError: Inappropriate file type for dynamic loading so what am i doing wrong here? I would really appreciate some hints at this point.
