I fight the python24_d.lib problem with swig daily. The way I got around it was to modify swig's python configuration module. Mine was located at
/lib/swig1.3/python/python.swg (I'm using cygwin) At the top, I changed #include "python.h" to #ifdef _DEBUG #undef _DEBUG #include "python.h" #define _DEBUG #else #include "python.h" #endif Somewhere in the includes, python uses a pragma telling the MSVC compiler which library to link the object files against. Because you're building a _DEBUG build, you magically get the python24_d.lib library. hth, jw On 4/18/05, Bill Davy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I downlaoded and installed > http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.4.1/python-2.4.1.msi > > I'm trying to build an extension using SWIG 1.3.24 and the linker needs > python24_d.lib (I do not have the DLL either).
