I'll try that when I get back to this and feed back my results. I figured out that I can avoid the need for dynamic loading. I wanted to use some existing extension modules, but the whole point was to use the existing ones which as you point out are linked against a dll. So even if I created an .EXE that exported the symbols, I'd still have to rebuild the extensions. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
