Thanks Trigve,

I used depends.exe and found out that it was looking for the debug version of the msvc runtime library. Compiling my extension in 'release' mode - everything worked. :-)

Subject: [C++-sig] issues with loading the boost_python dll on different 
computers

Dear all,

I installed and used boost (1.50.0) to build a python extension on my Windows 7
/ 32 Bit. Everything worked fine.

Now I tried the extension module on other Computers with Windows 7 and Windows
XP and the same Python version and it gave me an error concerning the DLL:

** ImportError : DLL load failed: This application has failed to start
because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the
application may fix this problem. **

Would anyone have a hint on were this problem could come from. I am totally
clueless.

Hi, two possible reason from top of my mind:

* Is it possible that you are using debug version of your extension?
* If you are using VS, have you installed VC redist of *your's VS version* on 
target PC?

Also try depends.exe to find if you aren't missing any dependencies.

Thanks a lot,
Ronny

Trigve
