Embedding Python

Hi!

I wanted to run some Python code from inside a C program, so I did it
like it was explained in the Python manual:

#include <Python.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
Py_Initialize() ;
PyRun_SimpleStr ing("print 'Hallo World!'\n");
Py_Finalize();
return 0;
}

Then I tried to compile this by using the command: gcc halloworld.cpp
But everytime I get the following errors:

/home/mmf/tmp/ccVD2V4h.o(.tex t+0x1d): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `Py_Initialize'
/home/mmf/tmp/ccVD2V4h.o(.tex t+0x2a): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `PyRun_SimpleSt ring'
/home/mmf/tmp/ccVD2V4h.o(.tex t+0x32): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `Py_Finalize'
/home/mmf/tmp/ccVD2V4h.o(.eh_ frame+0x11): undefined reference to
`__gxx_personal ity_v0'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

What am I doing wrong?

I also (before I originally posted) did a "find / -name libpython*" with no
success. Looks like Redhat 9 ships with a statically linked version of
python.


Hmm... Sorry to have thought otherwise... RedHat is braindead. :-)

I accidentally sent this to webmaster@python.org, so this could be a duplicate if "webmaster" forwards it to this list. :{ Hi, there. Thanks for any help that can be offered. I've been working with Python for a year or more now, but only doing simple extending in C/C++. I'm now attempting some embedding and several questions have come to mind. BTW - I'm running Windows 2000 with Python23 and VisualC++ developers

With some googling I have found these resources: http://docs.python.org/ext/win-dlls.html http://www.python.org/doc/faq/windows.html I have a large Win32/MFC/C/C++ application that has an embedded scripting language (a very limited one). I would like to rip it out and replace it with Python. I am thinking that this would be relatively simple since the scripting language is a very small interface between the UI and the engine --...

Hi Everyone, I am a beginner on cross language development. My problem at hand is to build a python interface for a C++ application built on top of a 3D game engine. The purpose of this python interface is providing a convenient scripting toolkit for the application. One example is that a user can write a python script like: player = Player() game.loadPlayer(player) player.moveTo(location)

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
