使用Boost.python建立世界

Question

I am just learning using Boost.Python, so excuse me if it seems silly. I have these code from here to wrap a c++ function in python.
I also searched for a few hours to find a working example and most relevant question was this , but still I have problem with build and run.

This is zoo.cpp

#include <boost/python.hpp>
#include <string>

/*
 * This is the C++ function we write and want to expose to Python.
 */
const std::string hello() {
    return std::string("hello, zoo");
}

/*
 * This is a macro Boost.Python provides to signify a Python extension module.
 */
BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(zoo) {
    // An established convention for using boost.python.
    using namespace boost::python;

    // Expose the function hello().
    def("hello", hello);
}

and visit_zoo.py

import zoo
# In zoo.cpp we expose hello() function, and it now exists in the zoo module.
assert 'hello' in dir(zoo)
# zoo.hello is a callable.
assert callable(zoo.hello)
# Call the C++ hello() function from Python.
print zoo.hello()

and here is the makefile

CC = g++
PYLIBPATH = $(shell python-config --exec-prefix)/lib
LIB = -L$(PYLIBPATH) $(shell python-config --libs) -lboost_python
OPTS = $(shell python-config --include) -O2

default: zoo.so
    @python ./visit_zoo.py

zoo.so: zoo.o
    $(CC) $(LIB) -Wl,-rpath,$(PYLIBPATH) -shared $< -o $@

zoo.o: zoo.cpp Makefile
    $(CC) $(OPTS) -c $< -o $@

clean:
    rm -rf *.so *.o

.PHONY: default clean

error massage:

Answer 1

I used this makefile that worked. Thanks for reading. I got help from here

PYTHON_VERSION = 2.7
PYTHON_INCLUDE = /usr/include/python$(PYTHON_VERSION)

# location of the Boost Python include files and library

BOOST_INC = /usr/include
BOOST_LIB = /usr/lib

# compile mesh classes
TARGET = zoo

$(TARGET).so: $(TARGET).o
    # g++ -shared -Wl,--export-dynamic $(TARGET).o -L$(BOOST_LIB) -lboost_python-$(PYTHON_VERSION) -L/usr/lib/python$(PYTHON_VERSION)/config -lpython$(PYTHON_VERSION) -o $(TARGET).so
    g++ -shared -Wl,--export-dynamic $(TARGET).o -L$(BOOST_LIB) -lboost_python -L/usr/lib/python$(PYTHON_VERSION)/config -lpython$(PYTHON_VERSION) -o $(TARGET).so

$(TARGET).o: $(TARGET).cpp
    g++ -I$(PYTHON_INCLUDE) -I$(BOOST_INC) -fPIC -c $(TARGET).cpp
