Using python22.dll with Python 2.5?

[Martin Schneider]

Hi!

I'd like to use the numpy library (which runs on Python 2.5) in the same
project with another (mandatory) library which needs python22.dll. When
I try to compile I get an error similar to "python22.dll not compatible
with the current Python version."

Has anybody an idea how to solve this?

Thanks for your ideas.
Best regards,
Martin

There is no solution to the compilation problems. You can't just mix
arbitrary python dlls. If upgrading the mandatory library isn't possible,
you could think of using a RPC-mechanism or depending on the task of the
library the module subprocess to do whatever that library needs to do in a
python2.2.

You can't. Binary extension modules compiled for one "minor" version of Python
cannot be used for another. numpy also requires Python >= 2.3 anyways, so you
could not recompile it for Python 2.2 in any case. You could use numpy's
predecessor, Numeric, which still should work with Python 2.2, but you will have
to compile it yourself; there are no available Python 2.2 Windows binaries.

Tell us what barriers you think you face that prevent you compiling
the (presumably C) source of the "another (mandatory) library which
needs python22.dll" so that it will run with Python 2.x (x 2) ...
someone may be able to help you.
