I've gotten a little further an this problem, if you be interested. I managed to at least get a DLL out of ExtensionClass.o without getting tons of reference errors. What I did was first copy the file libpython1.5.a for my python lib directory to the directory with ExtensionClass.o. Then I ran the following: dllwrap -o ExtensionClass.dll ExtensionClass.o libpython1.5.a The resulting DLL is a bit hefty- about 2MB, which isn't too surprising as this about the size of my libpython1.5.a. I'm not too sure how to proceed from this point. I think I'll have to go check a little more carefully how things build on my Linux system and try to recreate that here -or- try and do something like with the Zope+Win32 source patch which creates an executable that calls a 'specialized' DLL containing python+Zope extensions. Sorry, in incoherent mode after spending much of day trying various stuff trying to get this to work. Hope this all makes sense and provides a little extra mileage... Ciao-ness, John Miller

That's exactly where I got to, Problem is that, AFAIK, cygwin dowsn't support shared libs, :(

Is there any way to do this without shared libs.

Like creating DLL's for instance.
