Python in C integration and WxPython

Hi David,

Thanks for your answer, but I don't think the problem comes from which
Python version I use. I installed the Python from cygwin, but this
didn't change everything.

Finally, I fullfill the PYTHONPATH environment variable to make the
system finding the wx module. It is now able to find it. But after that,
the mode _core is called, and finally, the module _core_, which is not
found. The only _core_ file that I have is the "_core_.pyd" which is in
the wx directory. Of course, I added this directory path to PYTHONPATH,
but without any success.... is it because this is a .pyd file ?

Here are the logs I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "Dialog.py", line 2, in ?
    import  wx
  File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\wx-2.6-msw-ansi\wx\__init__.py",
line 42, in ?
    from wx._core import *
  File
"/cygdrive/c/Python24/Lib/site-packages/wx-2.6-msw-ansi/wx/_core.py",
line 4, in ?
    import _core_

Here is the result of the Py_GetPath() function:

/cygdrive/c/Python24/Lib/site-packages/:/cygdrive/c/Python24/Lib/site-packages
/wx-2.6-msw-ansi/:/cygdrive/c/Python24/Lib/site-packages/wx-2.6-msw-ansi/wxPython:/cygdriv
e/c/Python24/Lib/site-packages/wx-2.6-msw-ansi/wx:.:/usr/bin/lib/python24.zip:/usr/bin/lib
/python2.4/:/usr/bin/lib/python2.4/plat-cygwin:/usr/bin/lib/python2.4/lib-tk:/usr/bin/lib/
python2.4/lib-dynload

Any hints ??

Thanks.

N.B: Same problem when I run the script directly with "python -v Dialog.py".
