As you can see from the comments, 'python15.lib' SHOULD be included by some pragma inside 'config.h', which is #included be 'Python.h'. May be there is something wrong with the include files? Or has this something to do with the fact (IIRC from your first posting), that your source code does not reside in some subdirectories?

Thomas,

Thanks for your help. It led me to the right direction. I was using another library that which had anther config.h in it's include directories, which prevented the python config.h to be used correctly. After some fiddeling with include pathes, I now can successfully compile my module.

Ahh, I'm wrong. Distutils 1.0.1 do not work with Python 1.5.2 on Win32 because the 1.5.2 config.h for Win does *not* contain the neccesarry #pragma definitions for the library inclusion (at least in my copy). So I guess get_libraries in distutils/command/build_ext.py should be changed to something like def get_libraries (self, ext): """Return the list of libraries to link against when building a shared extension. On most platforms, this is just 'ext.libraries'; on Windows, we add the Python library (eg. python20.dll). """ # The python library is always needed on Windows. For MSVC, this # is redundant, since the library is mentioned in a pragma in # config.h that MSVC groks. The other Windows compilers all seem # to need it mentioned explicitly, though, so that's what we do. # Append '_d' to the python import library on debug builds. from distutils.msvccompiler import MSVCCompiler if sys.platform == "win32" and \ (not isinstance(self.compiler, MSVCCompiler) or sys.version[:5] == 1.5.2): template = "python%d%d" if self.debug: template = template + '_d' pythonlib = (template % (sys.hexversion >> 24, (sys.hexversion >> 16) & 0xff)) # don't extend ext.libraries, it may be shared with other # extensions, it is a reference to the original list return ext.libraries + [pythonlib] else: return ext.libraries to make building extension modules work with 1.5.2.
