Thank you for your answers, Khalid. > It seems you may be using an old version of pyMinGW,

You can probably remove the dead link from your page. (Maybe I can build a complete package (with Tkinter, minGW and Swig too), and put it in some official Python site.) > As to your SWIG problem, then I suggest you look into the pyMinGW's > extensions' directory.

I don't want to use/waste too much of your time, I have succed with the C++ example, but the C example has given me some problems: C:\...\PyminGW\Python-2.4.2\MinGW\Extensions\pyExt_C_exmaple>python24 setupMingW.py build --compile r=mingw32 running build running build_ext building '_example' extension swigging example.i to example_wrap.c C:\...\PyminGW\swigwin-1.3.28\swig.exe -python -o example_wrap.c example.i C:\......\bin\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -mdll -O2 -Wall -s -IC:\...\PyminGW\Python-2.4 .2\include -IC:\...\PyminGW\Python-2.4.2\PC -c example_wrap.c -o build\temp.win32-2.4\Release\examp le_wrap.o example_wrap.c: In function `PySwigClientData_New': example_wrap.c:1205: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules example_wrap.c: In function `PySwigObject_own': example_wrap.c:1456: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules example_wrap.c:1456: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules example_wrap.c: In function `My_variable_set': example_wrap.c:2515: error: `My_variable' undeclared (first use in this function) Bye, bearophile -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
