[Pythonmac-SIG] problems with boost.python on OS X

[stephan nies]

SOLVED

ok i put libboost_python-1_33_1.dylib
in a "standard location" like pointed out here
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/DynamicLibraries/Articles/UsingDynamicLibraries.html
in my case: ~/lib
i am still not sure what was wrong about using DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH


here is a Summary:

To use your boost.python extension module on OSX:
1) get boost.python
2) make sure libboost_python-1_33_1.dylib is in a "standard place"
3) link your extension using the -bind flag and -L/libpath -lboost_python-1_33_1
4) name it .so like myextension.so
5) import it in python using "import myextension"

Thanks again to Torsten and Ronald,
