Question about embedding python in C++

[TheShadow]

When extending python in c/c++ after you register a module is there a
way in c/c++ to check if they were correctly registered?

Cause I'm having the problem where when I execute the the python
script it finds the module but none of the functions.

Are you calling Py_InitModule(...) in your initmodule function? If so,
Py_InitModule(...) returns a reference to the module object. You can use
this object to double check that your function names exist in the
modules dictionary. Most likely, there is an error in your code. If you
post it, it would be easier to tell what the problem is.

Hrmm I forgot about the module init function... I was just calling
Py_initModule()

Alright that was a dead end. Here is the source code.

bool bReturn = false;
unsigned int uiSize = static_cast<unsigned

if (m_LPyMethodDefs.size() > 0)

m_pEmbMethods[uiCounter].ml_doc =

++uiCounter;
++iterMethods;
}

PyMethodDef PyMethodNullDef = {NULL, NULL, 0, NULL};

m_pEmbMethods[uiSize] = PyMethodNullDef;

Py_InitModule(m_sModuleName.c_str(),m_pEmbMethods);

//PythonInterfaceInst->RegisterModule(this);

m_pInitFunc();

bReturn = true;
}
return bReturn;
}

Forget I said anything I found my bug... I was using m_LPyMethodDefs
instead of my iterator... hurray for writing code at 12am :P
