[C++-sig] Question regarding boost.python and Makefiles

[Herringshaw, Chris]

Fair enough....any ideas why it compiles but gets the error
I detailed in my original email?  (Reprinted below)

-----REPRINT-----
This compiles fine.  Here is the source file:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

#include <boost/python.hpp>
#include <boost/python/class.hpp>
#include <boost/python/module.hpp>
#include <boost/python/def.hpp>

BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE_INIT(chris)
{

}

Here is the python file:

#!/dev/Python-2.3.3/python

from chris import *

And when I run the script, here is what I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./pythonboost.py", line 3, in ?
    from chris import *
ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (initchris)

   Once you get Boost.Python installed with bjam, then its library and
header files are like any other package.   You can use your favorite
build environment for your code.
