[Pythonmac-SIG] Boost Python on Panther

[James Mastro]

I'm having quite a time using Boost Python on Panther. Does anyone have  
any experience with Boost Python that they could share with me? I'm  
just trying to get the simple "hello world" example from  
http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/tutorial/doc/ 
building_hello_world.html running.

One problem is that I really don't know where to put modules after  
building. After Boost Python builds what it needs to build, I am left  
with a "hello.so" and a "libboost_python.dylib". I put them right in  
the Python framework now, in /System which is of course not the right  
thing to do. In MacPython, Python does find something, but an "import  
hello" results in:

ImportError: Failure linking new module:  
../../../../bin/boost/libs/python/build/libboost_python.dylib/darwin/ 
debug/shared-linkable-true/libboost_python.dylib: dyld:  
/Applications/MacPython-2.3/PythonIDE.app/Contents/MacOS/PythonIDE  
can't open library:  
../../../../bin/boost/libs/python/build/libboost_python.dylib/darwin/ 
debug/shared-linkable-true/libboost_python.dylib  (No such file or  
directory, errno = 2)

I'm not sure why it's looking for something in that path. Any ideas?
