I asked a similar post on the python mailing list as i don't know where peo=
ple
can help me on that subjet.

So, for my fellows readers, now that i have geos compiled and fully functio=
nnal,
my next step is to validate the Django ctypes bindings, and we have there s=
ome
tests to do that.

Here come problems.


With my python-2.6.4 hand made with some patches stolen from cygwin port
(specially the ctypes one, and some arrangements (load cygpython26.Dll inst=
dead
of libpython26.dll for example), i can compile and use a c or a c++ hellowo=
rld
library without problems and unittest for ctypes do not fail.


However, using it in my real world UseCase (django + geos), make me think t=
hat
there is a problem with ctypes.
$ cat geos.py
from django.contrib.gis.tests import test_geos
test_geos.run()
$ /minitage/dependencies/python-2.6/parts/part/bin/python bin/djangopy geos=
.py

Any thought on why ctypes can't find that 'free' function ?
