Fixed, I think...., needed to define BOOST_DEBUG_PYTHON in the c++ 
pre-processor definitions

Now having a different problem...will get back to you guys if I still have 
problems

Subject: [C++-sig] Import causes access violation

Hi,
I am running through the basic examples on the boost website for embedding 
boost::python.
My code currently reads:

#include <iostream>
#include "./include/Python.h"
#include "./boost/python.hpp"

using namespace boost::python;
int    main(void)
{
       Py_Initialize();
       object main_module = import("__main__");
       object main_namespace = main_module.attr("__dict__");
       object ignored = exec("print Hello world",main_namespace);
       return 0;
}
The program links successfully and begins running, however an access violation 
occurs (NULL pointer) at the first line after "py_initialize();" when i call 
import("__main__");
Visual studio 2010s debugger says the exception occurs at:  line 74 in 
object_attributes.hpp:
inline object const_attribute_policies::get(object const& target, char const* 
key)
{
    return python::getattr(target, key);
}
Python was built using Visual studio 2010 so i had access to the python debug 
library. Boost is version 1.45 and was built using :
bjam --build-type=complete msvc stage --with-python

I am linking against:
boost_python-vc100-mt-gd-1_45.lib
and
boost_python-vc100-mt-gd-1_45.dll

I have looked for soutions on the internet and have found nothing right now. 
Can anyone help me?

note: i am building my application in MSVC 2010, this should work though 
shouldn't it?
