Hi all,
Could not work out if this belonged in the c++ forum, or the python forum....
Basically, I am writing an application in c++ which embeds python. The annoying thing is that I have no way of knowing in advance what version of python will be installed on a users machine, so I dont know in advance which python .lib file to link to and forcing a python version is not an option...
In this type of situation, I would normally just use LoadLibrary to pull in the dll, after my application figures out where the .dll file is etc...etc. In general, no problem: BUT - Python only ships with .lib files rather than .dll files.
Does anyone have an idea how to work around this?
