The pypy translator is not a *module* translator. It takes an entry-point function (equivalent to main() in C) and converts that to C. Take a look at pypy/translator/goal/target-nopstandalone.py to see how it is defined. The important thing is that any code you want to translate into C must be placed in a function (and obviously used by the entry-point function). Code in the module body itself will be executed immediately by the translator (under Python interpreter). > In some of the tests in the guide i see that after compiling with > t.compile_c() i can directly use the function in python. The function is converted to C and compiled to an extension module (DLL). This module is saved in a temporary directory somewhere (/tmp). It's probably not a good idea to try to open that file itself, better to just use the (compiled) function returned by compile_c(). Hope I make sense.
