Python extensions using MinGW and CXX

[Reinhard Nadrchal]

Hi all,

In the course of porting our software (currently running on linux and 
irix) we faced some problems with python extension modules based on Paul 
Dubois' CXX.

Our problem is, that pyds generated with the MinGW compiler/linker seems 
to be incompatible with the Windows python interpreter.

If we naively link python20.dll to our extension, it compiles and links, 
bot the python interpreter crashes on importing the module. If we on the 
other hand create a export library with pexport and dlltool, we get a 
lot of unresolved references. Is there a way to fix the problem (without 
using distutils or VC++).

If my SOS is not in the scope of this newsgroup or there's a more 
suitable forum, please tell me.

Thanks in advance,
reinhard
