If your extensions are DLLs and they're both linking to the same static library, you should have two independent copies of that library - which would mean they don't interfere with one another. That's why the other extension doesn't see the change, and normally this is the correct and desired behaviour. Having the two be aware of each other is potentially very messy. As Stefan suggested, making one depend on the other would be a lot simpler. Alternatively, there may be ways to have the two extensions share data through Python itself. What are you looking to accomplish? ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
