Making a DLL with python?

[Gerald Klix]

I think you can, as long as you have a C-Compiler available.

I used pyrex to embedd python into a Linux PAM-Module and
i used C-Types to embbed Python into a Windows DLL. With hindsight, the 
pyrex solution was much fatser to develop and less complicated.

Pyrex provides an example.

Ctypes: http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/ctypes/
Pyrex: http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~greg/python/Pyrex/

Feel free to ask, if you need a more complex example,
than the one, that comes with pyrex.

HTH,
Gerald
