This question inpsired me to try this in VB6. I did a search and copied what I saw at
http://forums.devshed.com/t158692/s.html
However I'm running into the same problem they are. When I try to run:
res = Python.PyRun_SimpleString("5+7")
I get the error message:
Bad DLL calling convention (Error 49)
Which VB help describes as:
Arguments passed to a dynamic-link library (DLL) must exactly match those expected by the routine. Calling conventions deal with number, type, and order of arguments. This error has the following causes and solutions:
- Your program is calling a routine in a DLL that's being passed the wrong
type of arguments.
Make sure all argument types agree with those specified in the declaration of the routine you are calling.
- Your program is calling a routine in a DLL that's being passed the wrong
number of arguments.
Make sure you are passing the same number of arguments indicated in the declaration of the routine you are calling.
- Your program is calling a routine in a DLL, but isn't using the StdCall
calling convention.
If the DLL routine expects arguments by value, then make sure ByVal is specified for those arguments in the declaration for the routine.
- Your Declare statement for a Windows DLL includes CDecl.
Any ideas?

There is a section of the official documentation devoted to extending and
embedding python:
http://docs.python.org/ext/ext.html![]()
There are a few articles on this topics on the web, as well. Search
"embedding python" with Google.
