Hi, I've been trying for days to make either boost.python or swig to work for me. The one I have gotten the closest to is boost. Note that this is for windows XP. I'm not much of an unix person besides doing simple ls and copy paste.
What I have done is to download the boost library: C:\boost_1_34_0 I downloaded the bjam library: C:\boost-jam-3.1.14-1-ntx86 I then set up the path so that I could do bjam from anywhere suing the coomand prompt. Did the same for python and g++. I'm using the g++ that came with bloodshed DevC++ compiler. So, I navigated myself to the tutorial example in the boost library. C:\boost_1_34_0\libs\python\example\tutorial In the command prompt I typed bjam and I got the following error message. C:\boost_1_34_0\libs\python\example\tutorial>bjam Jamroot:17: in modules.load rule python-extension unknown in module Jamfile</C:/boost_1_34_0/libs/python/example/tutorial>.

I also tried swig with similar results but I feel I'm closer to solving the issue with boost than with swig. I'm at a total lost here. I have tried the tutorials in the boost web page but I just don't get anywhere. http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/tutorial/doc/html/python/hello.html -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
