>> ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found.
This is most likely due to the localtime problem when building extensions with mingw. I encountered this too when trying to get the scikits.timeseries module ready for a release. I implemented a work around mentioned on the python users list a while ago, you can take a look here: http://svn.scipy.org/svn/scikits/trunk/timeseries/scikits/timeseries/src/c_dates.c lines 2585 - 2609 Basically, if you use localtime, time or time_t anywhere in your extension and compile your extension with mingw for python 2.6, it will fail to import. This is due to some conflict with mingw and visual studio 2008, the details of which I am not really familiar with, I just know the work around works. - Matt -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/release-strategy%2C-and-the-role-of-v0_98_5_maint-tp22900147p22996892.html Sent from the matplotlib - devel mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
