Hello, Dave; My name is Craig Connor and I am a senior s/w developer at Northrop Grumman. I have a question for you. I have installed Boost (via the Installer), and stored it into my C Drive inside a dir called: C:\boost_1_42 I also installed the Boost Jam into a directory called: C:\boost-jam-3.1.17 I am using 2 separate compilers in my Win OS XP (SP3) and I would like to be able to use the Python module of Boost in order to embed Python.h into my C++ compiler. The C++ compilers that I have are: o Dev-cpp, and o Visual C++.net (of MS Visual Studio.Net 2008). Problem: When I compile a simple program, I keep getting the error: "pyconfig.h: No such file or directory". The program I am trying to start with is (below): #include <iostream> #include<boost/any.hpp> #include<boost/python.hpp> using namespace std; int main( ) { cout << "Hello, Boost World!!" << endl; boost::any a(5); a = 7.67; std::cout<<boost::any_cast<double>(a)<<std::endl; system( "PAUSE" ); return 0; } Also: I did set up my environmental config to go to the Boost dir. Question: Do you know what am I doing wrong? Regards, Craig Connor 720.622.2209

Hello Connor, I think you have the wrong email address - this is Python-dev, an email list for the development *of* Python. All the best, Michael Foord On 23/02/2010 15:41, Connor, Craig A. wrote:

I have a question for you. I have installed* Boost* (via the Installer), and stored it into my
C Drive inside a dir called:
* C:\boost_1_42*
I also installed the* Boost Jam* into a directory called:
* C:\boost-jam-3.1.17*
I am using 2 separate compilers in my* Win OS XP (SP3)*
and I would like to be able to use the Python module of Boost
in order to embed Python.h into my C++ compiler.
The C++ compilers that I have are:
o* Dev-cpp*, and
o* Visual C++.net* (of* MS Visual Studio.Net 2008*).
Problem:
When I compile a simple program, I keep getting the error: "*pyconfig.h: No such file or directory*".
The program I am trying to start with is (below):
*#include <iostream>*
*#include<boost/any.hpp>*
*#include<boost/python.hpp>*
*using namespace std;*
*int main( )*
*{*
* cout << "Hello, Boost World!!" << endl;*
* boost::any a(5);*
* a = 7.67;*
* std::cout<<boost::any_cast<double>(a)<<std::endl;*
* *
* system( "PAUSE" );*
* return 0;*
*}*
Also:
I did set up my environmental config to go to the Boost dir.
Question:
Do you know what am I doing wrong?

One of the boost specific lists or the general python-list (aka comp.lang.python) would be the place to go for help of this nature. Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia ---------------------------------------------------------------
