New submission from Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton <[email protected]>:
an assumption has been made in the python core api that all operating
systems "dynamic module loading" can access data segments. windows
_cannot_ do this.
the "workaround" has been to statically link absolutely _everything_
into a single whopping great dll.
the proper solution is to provide "accesser" functions:
PyAPI_FUNC(PyObject *)
PyErr_GetPyExc_OSError(void)
{
return (PyObject*)PyExc_OSError;
}
PyAPI_FUNC(char*) _PyStructSequence_Get_UnnamedField(void)
{
return PyStructSequence_UnnamedField;
}
... actually the _best_ solution is to have everything that's needed in
a vector-table [discussed on python-dev mailing list]
