Hi I would be grateful for some help with setting up some makefiles for my C++ application, compiled with gcc under Linux, that uses Boost.Python.
The application consists of a static library that contains main() and various shared libraries that are dynamically linked at runtime as required. One of the shared libraries invokes the Python interpreter to act on some Python objects. Initially, I called Py_Initialize() from the shared library and linked that library to the Python and Boost libraries within the shared library's makefile. Then the Python calls worked as expected. Now I want to move Py_Initialize() to my main() function, and invoke the Python interpreter from the shared library as before. So I linked the application to the Python and Boost libraries in my top level makefile, and deleted mention of the Python and Boost libraries from the shared library's makefile. The result all links without errors but the Python calls do nothing. If I use Boost.Python in a shared library, do I have to link Boost.Python to it when I build it, or would linking Boost.Python to the main application be sufficient? (I hope this makes some sense).
