now would be a great time to let the pygame list know. Laura, going back to vacation, and not going to be the person who tells them if there is any telling that needs doing. ------- Forwarded Message Return-Path: owner-pygame-users@seul.org Delivery-Date: Mon Apr 14 02:04:47 2008 Date: Mon, 14 Apr 2008 10:04:39 +1000 From: "=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Ren=E9_Dudfield?=" <renesd@gmail.com> To: pygame-users@seul.org Subject: Re: [pygame] SDL ctypes ImportError In-Reply-To: <a0efdb8a0804131650q7ffc58xeb7fe9300f96e4d7@mail.gmail.com> hello, pygame-ctypes has been abandoned. The authors email is in the docs if you'd like to email him. You might get a good response on the ctypes list to your issue. cheers, On Mon, Apr 14, 2008 at 9:50 AM, PyMike <pymike93@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi,

I've been interested in making something similar to pygame, but completely in python. I came across http://www.pygame.org/ctypes/ and after I installed the SDL lib I get this error when I run __init__.py...

...

...

...

Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\SDL\dll.py", line 221, in <module> _dll = SDL_DLL('SDL', 'SDL_Linked_Version') File "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\SDL\dll.py", line 54, in __init__ _platform_library_name(library_name) ImportError: Dynamic library "SDL" was not found

...

...and I have all the SDL DLLs that are included pygame in the same dir as the SDL lib. I want to be able to include SDL with the pkg and not have users have to install it into their system folder for the python lib to work.

Please help! -- - pymike (pymike93.googlepages.com)
