How to import python module from .so file?

Question

[me@hostname python]$ cat hello_world.cc
#include 
#include 
#include 

namespace {
  std::string greet() { ret         


        

Answer 1

take that 'hello_world.so' file and and make new python file (in the same dir) named as 'hello_world.py'. Put the below code in it.. .

def __bootstrap__():
   global __bootstrap__, __loader__, __file__
   import sys, pkg_resources, imp
   __file__ = pkg_resources.resource_filename(__name__,'hello_world.so')
   __loader__ = None; del __bootstrap__, __loader__
   imp.load_dynamic(__name__,__file__)
__bootstrap__()

now you can import this hello_world as:

>>> import hello_world

Answer 2

It must be called hello_world.so, not libhello_world.so.
