I believe you can export different modules from one dll, but you *MUST*
at least export a module that has the same name as the dll. If the name
of your dll is mymodule.dll then your init function should look like the
following:
void initmymodule()
{
Py_InitModule("mymodule", mymoduleMethods);
Py_InitModule("audio", audioMethods);
Py_InitModule("video", videoMethods);
Py_InitModule("input", inputMethods);
}
At the python level you would have to do the following:
import mymodule #Must be import before audio,video, and input
import audio
import video
import input
I've never actually tried this, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.
Let me know how it goes.
