Hi,
I'm embedding Python in a big C++ program (the NS network simulator)
and I have problems when importing the numpy module, I get a Floating
Point exception. The C code that causes the exception is:
Py_Initialize();
PyObject* module = PyImport_ImportModule("numpy");
Py_DECREF(module);
I'm running Ubuntu Breezy on a dual processor Dell machine, with the
stock python and numpy 0.9.6. One strange thing is that I haven't been
able to reproduce the crash by writing a minimal C program with the
code above, it only crashes when added to my program. I've been
embedding Python for ages on the same program and other modules work
fine, only numpy fails.
I've debugged the issue a bit and I've seen that the exception is
thrown when the numpy __init__.py tries to import the core module. The
GDB backtrace is pasted at the end.
Any idea what may be going wrong?
Thanks,
Arkaitz
