You are using the C example extension found in pyMinGW, right? It builds fine here, of course using the "python setup.py build" command. $ python setupMinGW.py build running build running build_ext building '_example' extension swigging example.i to example_wrap.c d:\MISC\PROGRAMS\SWIG-1.3.21\swig.exe -python -o example_wrap.c example.i creating build creating build\temp.win32-2.4 creating build\temp.win32-2.4\Release e:\UTILIT~1\PROGRA~1\MINGW\BIN\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -mdll -O2 -Wall -s -IG:\PROJS\PY24\PYTHON\DIST\SRC\include -IG:\PROJS\PY24\PYTHON\DIST\SRC\PC -c example_wrap.c -o build\temp.win32-2.4\Release\example_wrap.o example_wrap.c:187: warning: 'SWIG_Python_TypeDynamicCast' defined but not used example_wrap.c:199: warning: 'SWIG_Python_TypeName' defined but not used example_wrap.c:205: warning: 'SWIG_Python_TypeQuery' defined but not used example_wrap.c:551: warning: 'SWIG_Python_MustGetPtr' defined but not used example_wrap.c:559: warning: 'SWIG_Python_ConvertPacked' defined but not used e:\UTILIT~1\PROGRA~1\MINGW\BIN\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -mdll -O2 -Wall -s -IG:\PROJS\PY24\PYTHON\DIST\SRC\include -IG:\PROJS\PY24\PYTHON\DIST\SRC\PC -c example.c -o build\temp.win32-2.4\Release\example.o writing build\temp.win32-2.4\Release\_example.def creating build\lib.win32-2.4 e:\UTILIT~1\PROGRA~1\MINGW\BIN\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -shared -s build\temp.win32-2.4\Release\example_wrap.o build\temp.win32-2.4\Release\example.o build\temp.win32-2.4\Release\_example.def -LG:\PROJS\PY24\PYTHON\DIST\SRC\libs -LG:\PROJS\PY24\PYTHON\DIST\SRC\PCBuild -lpython24 -o build\lib.win32-2.4\_example.pyd And copying that _example.pyd from the build directory just created to our current directory so that python can see it, we can load that extension fine as well: $ python -i Python 2.4.2 (#67, Nov 8 2005, 10:12:11) [GCC 3.4.2 (mingw-special)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import example as ex >>> dir(ex) ['__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '_example', '_newclass', '_object', '_swig_getattr', '_swig_setattr', 'cvar', 'fact', 'fib', 'get_time', 'hello', 'my_mod'] >>> ex.hello() 'Hi there!' >>> ex.fact(4) 24 >>> Regards, Khalid -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
