The nightly builds are those on https://code.gnucash.org/builds/win32/stable/, right? Would it be possible to additonally provide a version there which includes the Python bindings? No, there's no way to make that work with an installed package.

Since there already exists a working build environment, I would hope that it's not too much work?
That depends on what you want to use for your Python. If you can use the MSYS2 environment from Powershell (some MSYS2 things work directly in Powershell, others need a Bash shell) then you can simply add -DWITH_PYTHON=ON to the CMakeArgs in jhbuild and build it. Don't run the installer, just add c:\gcdev64\gnucash\stable\inst\lib\python3.11\site-packages to PYTHONPATH and run your scripts.

After starting from scratch I'm now able to run a successful build including the Python bindings.

After adding
C:\Users\mu\Entwicklung\GnuCash\gcdev64\gnucash\stable\inst\lib\python3.11\site-packages
to PYTHONPATH my script now starts and does no longer complain about the gnucash imports.

But the script aborts and it looks like Python does not find _gnucash_core_c.dll in this folder. :-(

I also added C:\Users\mu\Entwicklung\GnuCash\gcdev64\gnucash\stable\inst\lib\python3.11\site-packages\gnucash to the Windows Path, but this does not help.

Do you also have C:\Users\mu\Entwicklung\GnuCash\gcdev64\gnucash\stable\inst\lib and C:\Users\mu\Entwicklung\GnuCash\gcdev64\gnucash\stable\inst\lib\gnucash in %PATH% ?

I've added them now, but it makes no difference.

Does C:\Users\mu\Entwicklung\GnuCash\gcdev64\gnucash\stable\inst\lib\python3.11\site-packages\gnucash\_gnucash_core_c.dll exist?

BTW the bindings also need _sw_app_utils.dll and _sw_core_utils.dll in that directory along with _gnucash_core_c.dll and various python files.

Yes, they are there the following files:

__init__.py
_gnucash_core_c.dll
_sw_app_utils.dll
_sw_core_utils.dll
app_utils.py
deprecation.py
function_class.py
gnucash_business.py
gnucash_core.py
gnucash_core_c.py

folder __pycache__

Some of these files are mentioned in the error messages above.

Could it be a problem for importlib.import_module() that GnuCash is build with Python 3.11 32-bit and I have Python 3.11 64-bit installed?
Ah, missed that. It's not even 3.11:

File "C:\Users\mu\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\Lib\importlib\__init__.py", line 90, in import_module

That wouldn't work even if it was a 32-bit build because it's a different version of python and the cpython folks don't maintain ABI across versions. For best results use C:\Users\mu\Entwicklung\GnuCash\gcdev64\msys2\mingw32\bin\python3, making sure to set up the environment accordingly. The easiest way to do that is to use the Mingw32 shell from Start>MSYS2.

What else can I try? What's the shebang in C:\Users\mu\Documents\Nextcloud_Manfred\Manfred Entwicklung\USS\Projects\GCToolbox\GCImport\gcimport.py?

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
That's not a shebang, it's a comment for your editor to set the encoding. The shebang starts with #! (the exclamation point is traditionally called a "bang" by unix users) followed by a command (it should be something like `python`, `/path/to/python` or `/usr/bin/env python` or one of the same ending in `python3`) that tells the shell (the "she" part of "shebang") what program to feed the file to. It's necessary to use a text file like a python script as an executable as the error stack trace indicates that you did.

The file doesn't contain a shebang then.

I execute it with python and the script as parameter.

What do `which python` and `which python3` display? (Should be the same thing.)

$ `which python`
Python 3.11.6 (main, Nov 8 2023, 19:14:30) [GCC 13.2.0 32 bit] on win32

$ `which python3`
Python 3.11.6 (main, Nov 8 2023, 19:14:30) [GCC 13.2.0 32 bit] on win32

That's odd. `which` is supposed to return a path, not invoke the command's version option. See e.g. https://linux.die.net/man/1/which. Maybe it's because you included the back-ticks. Try again without them.

Yes, I did.

$ which python
/mingw32/bin/python

$ which python3
/mingw32/bin/python3

$ ls -la /mingw32/bin/python*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 Manfred Manfred 3765 Nov 8 20:14 /mingw32/bin/python-config

I tried to debug it a bit and noticed that the import is not searching for files with extension .dll, but only .py, pyw, pyd, pyc, etc.

Therefore I renamed the three DLLs in C:/Users/mu/Entwicklung/GnuCash/gcdev64/gnucash/stable/inst/lib/python3.11/site-packages/gnucash/ from *.dll to *.pyd.

Now the pyd ist found and I get another error message:

Then I used a dependency checker to find out, which DLLs are needed by _gnucash_core_c:

libglib-2.0-0.dll
libgobject-2.0-0.dll
libintl-8.dll
libpython3.11.dll
libxml2-2.dll
libgnc-app-utils.dll
libgnc-core-utils.dll
libgnc-engine.dll

and some windows DLLs.

I've added the corresponding folders to PATH and PYTHONPATH, but still this error remains...

Manfred
