Sigh, I spoke too soon. I now have an "un-empty" list of formats but
unfortunately all of thew formats in formats_common are not showing up.
No pdb, no sdf, no smi, etc.
Here is the results of the print sorted(pybel.informats) command
['CONFIG', 'CONTCAR', 'CONTFF', 'HISTORY', 'MDFF', 'POSCAR', 'POSFF',
'VASP', 'abinit', 'acesout', 'acr', 'adfout', 'alc', 'arc', 'axsf',
'bgf', 'box', 'bs', 'c09out', 'c3d1', 'c3d2', 'caccrt', 'car', 'castep',
'ccc', 'cdjson', 'cdx', 'cif', 'ck', 'crk2d', 'crk3d', 'ct', 'cub',
'cube', 'dallog', 'dalmol', 'dat', 'dmol', 'dx', 'exyz', 'fa', 'fasta',
'fch', 'fchk', 'fck', 'feat', 'fhiaims', 'fract', 'fs', 'fsa', 'g03',
'g09', 'g92', 'g94', 'g98', 'gal', 'gam', 'gamess', 'gamin', 'gamout',

'molden', 'molf', 'moo', 'mop', 'mopcrt', 'mopin', 'mopout', 'mpc',
'mpo', 'mpqc', 'msi', 'nwo', 'out', 'outmol', 'output', 'pcjson', 'pcm',
'pdbqt', 'png', 'pos', 'pqr', 'pqs', 'prep', 'pwscf', 'qcout', 'res',
'rsmi', 'rxn', 'smy', 't41', 'tdd', 'text', 'therm', 'tmol', 'txt',
'txyz', 'unixyz', 'vmol', 'xsf', 'xyz', 'yob']
I see no relevant build errors for these. The function works with babel
from the command line. The obf files are all copied to site packages (as
well as all the others from previous emails.
At least for now, I can likely get on with what I wanted openbabel
loaded for in the first place (I believe... yet to test if the other
functions are all working) but without common formats, I have to convert
structures to one of the ones available first on the command line and
that is going to get tiresome very quickly. Any idea what is left for me
to do? I'm really at my wits end for what was supposed to be a rather
straightforward project. I'll keep digging myself.
Thanks in advance again,
Dale

perfect... So I'm not sure what is left to try. Seems like babel is built
correctly and it must be python related. Or it's me... Which is always a
possibility I think everything is pointing where it belongs. BABEL_DATADIR is
pointing to the top level data directory in the ob folder. BABEL_LIBDIR is
pointing to the libs folder inside the newest x64 release build. The
windows-vc2008build_x64binRelease is in the path (Am I missing others?) I had
trouble with babel (in a cmd window) recognizing where libinchi.dll was so I
added the libs folder directly in the path as well. No chnges here affect the
problem. Baby steps progress is still progress... Thanks, Dale On 2014-11-21

pybel.py, openbabel.py, _openbabel.pyd. Then add your release build to the
front of the windows PATH (or else copy everything to site-packages but that's
not very nice) and "import pybel". - Noel On 21 November 2014 15:45, Dale R.

swig; I put mine in /bin using MSYS. Now, I did that on my own 32 bit install

Does it run on 64 bits? Best regards Mathias
