Import of cStringIO failing with "undefined symbol:PyObject _SelfIter" on python-2.3.3-88.9

I am importing cStringIO module in my PythonC++ embedded program.

The import is failing with the following error:
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload/cStringIO.so: undefined
symbol: PyObject_SelfIt er

I have python-2.3.3-88.9.x86 installed on my machine.
Why is this error coming? how can I resolve this undefined symbol?
Do I need to import anything before this?

Workaround to avoid this problem is in another post named

Hi all, I have python2.4 running on ppc-linux 2.6.17. I'm attempting to get a TurboGears 0.9a9 (using CherryPy 2.2.1) based app running on it. During the TG-app startup sequence, it reaches the point where it imports cherrypy, which eventually causes py2.4's system file, compiler/transformer.py, to import a module by name, symbol. Unable to find it, python quits...

RHEL comes with Python2.3 installed. A program I need to install requires Python2.4 So I got Python2.4 from source and compiled it up. I configured it with --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr and --enable-unicode=ucs4 . I then make'd it and then make altinstall so that it didn't overwrite the /usr/bin/Python link to /usr/bin/Python2.3 . Well, for some reason, the arch dependent files did NOT get placed properly in...

Hi, Can you please guide me for the following problem? The call to "PyImport_ImportModule("cStringIO");" is failing with an error of "undefined symbol: PyObject_SelfIter". Before importing this module, I am importing only the sys module. Py_SetProgramName("/usr/bin/python"); Py_Initialize(); char* argv = { "python","-v",""}; PySys_SetArgv(2,argv);

I am in a perculiar situation. I want to use PyRun_SimpleString for creating Python functions in embedded Python in C++. But there could be cases when Python function code compilation could fail & PyRun_SimpleString will return -1 as return status. At this time, it prints the error message to sys.stderr. So, we do not have any control or cannot use that message to show to user to correct the errors in the function code. I could assign an...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
