These commands work fine on my Fedora system (with the proper version of 
python and without any extra libraries specified).




what error ?

The Tutorial needs small adjustments for what I see:


$ swig -python -py3 example.i

$ gcc -c example.c example_wrap.c -I/usr/include/python3.8

$ gcc -shared example.o example_wrap.o -o _example.dll -lpython3.8

$ python
Python 3.8.8 (default, Mar  4 2021, 21:24:42)
[GCC 10.2.0] on cygwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import example
>>> example.fact(5)
120

Read those error messages again.  It's failing to find things _in_ any of those files, which means 
it did in fact find all files it was looking for just fine.


So no, this is almost certainly no issue with locations of files.  It's an issue of not telling the 
linker that it's supposed to be looking for certain libraries in the first place.


But it's virtually impossible to diagnose this sensibly, as you opted not to show any of the actual 
command(s) you used.

Building the python swig tutorial

[Brad Bell]

I am trying to build the swig tutorial on cygwin
http://www.swig.org/tutorial.html 

I changed the version of python to python3.8 (the version on my cygwin system) and that solved the 
include file error.


Now I am getting the following error during the ld command:

ld: example.o:example.c:(.text+0x54): undefined reference to `time'
example.o:example.c:(.text+0x54): relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_PC32 against undefined 
symbol `time'

ld: example.o:example.c:(.text+0x60): undefined reference to `ctime'
example.o:example.c:(.text+0x60): relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_PC32 against undefined 
symbol `ctime'


... snip ...

ld: example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c:(.rdata+0x750): undefined reference to 
`PyObject_GenericGetAttr'
ld: example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c:(.rdata+0x8f0): undefined reference to 
`PyObject_GenericGetAttr'
ld: 
example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c:(.rdata$.refptr.PyObject_GenericGetAttr[.refptr.PyObject_GenericGetAttr]+0x0): 
undefined reference to `PyObject_GenericGetAttr'



It appeard that I need to add an non-standard location to a path so that the linker can find these 
files ?


Does someone know where these files are on cygwin ?
