I think this is somewhat off-topic for this list (would be much better off in a Pyrex discussion list), but the solution is to use something like: cdef extern from "H5PTpublic.h": <declarations without things Pyrex doesn't understand here> If you do this, Pyrex will not generate C code for the declarations, relying on them being made in H5PTpublic.h instead. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
