在C ++中嵌入python代码（Windows + minGW + Python 2.7.2 + Eclipse）

Question

I'm trying to embed python code in C++ (Windows 7 + minGW + Python 2.7.2 + Eclipse Indigo with CDT and PyDev) .

So, this is the simple code:

#include <Python.h> //Python.h
#include <iostream> //iostream
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    Py_Initialize();
    PyRun_SimpleString("from time import time,ctime\n"
    "print('Today is', ctime(time()))\n");
    Py_Finalize();
    return 0;
}

And I couldn't understant what am I doing wrong. I include dirrctories C:\\Python27\\include and C:\\Python27\\lib s but I can't build my project.

1) When I trying to build my project I got this error:

**** Internal Builder is used for build               **** g++
-IC:\Python27\include -IC:\Python27\libs -O0 -g3 -Wall -c
-fmessage-length=0 -o main.o ..\main.cpp g++ -o testpy2.exe main.o

reference to `_imp__Py_Finalize' 
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Build error occurred, build is stopped Time consumed: 1507  ms.

2) And if I change current toolchain in Eclipse from "minGW" to "CrossGCC" .. I got this error:

**** Build of configuration Release for project testpy ****

exit status make: *** [testpy.exe] Error 1

**** Build Finished ****

Could anybody tell me what's wrong with my code or settings or something else?

Thank you

Answer 1

That is a linker error, not a compiler error. You need to link to the python. As you can see, with the "CrossGCC" toolchain you are almost there:

-lC:/Python27/libs/libpython27.a

You need to change this to

-LC:/Python27/libs -lpython
