I know next-to-nothing about linking dynamic libraries in Windows, but
if I saw a message like that in Linux, I'd check my dynamic linker path
to ensure the Boost.Python shared library is in it; any Python module
you build is linked against against that library. If the dynamic linker
can't find the boost_python library when it tries to load your module,
it's very likely that it would complain about your module not being
found, because it was unable to resolve some symbols in it.
Hopefully a Windows expert on the list will chime in, but I gather the
list is rather short on those.

Hi,
I am having a similar problem as the o.p.
I was trying to build Python wrappers for the hello_ext project given in the
boost tutorial using CMake instead of bjam using the instructions as per
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/cplusplus-sig/2007-June/012247.html
The setup is Boost 1.47.0, Python 2.7, Windows 7 x64, MSVC 2008 (9.0) x64.
After doing CMake and MSVC - it produces a hello_ext.dll. Even if i rename
this to hello_ext.pyd, Python throws the following error. Any suggestions /
ideas ?
Thanks,
