problem in compiling C API in mingw

[llwaeva]

Hi all again,
I wonder if so far only Python 2.5.x support c extension. I try the
MSVC 2010 and 2008, also try mingw (gcc 4.x.x) and swig. But even I try
the simplest example, it said

example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c.text+0x10ac): undefined reference to `_imp__PyObject_Free'
example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c.text+0x10f5): undefined reference to `_imp__PyCapsule_Import'
example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c.text+0x1100): undefined reference to `_imp__PyErr_Occurred'
example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c.text+0x110e): undefined reference to `_imp__PyErr_Clear'
example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c.text+0x1125): undefined reference to `_imp__PyImport_AddModule'
example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c.text+0x1144): undefined reference to `_imp__PyCapsule_New'
example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c.text+0x1165): undefined reference to `_imp__PyModule_AddObject'
example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c.text+0x1170): undefined reference to `_imp__PyBaseObject_Type'
example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c.text+0x11b2): undefined reference to `_imp__PyObject_SetAttr'
example_wrap.o:example_wrap.c.rdata+0x1e8): undefined reference to `PyObject_GenericGetAttr'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

and some sort like that.

So I try to use the compiler itself and get rid of all 3rd part tool,
here is what I did

///////////// source code
#include "Python.h"

static PyObject *
ex_foo(PyObject *self, PyObject *args)
{
printf("Hello, world n " );
Py_INCREF(Py_None);
return Py_None;
}

static PyMethodDef example_methods[] = {
{"foo" , ex_foo, METH_VARARGS, "foo() doc string" },
{NULL , NULL }
};

static struct PyModuleDef examplemodule = {
PyModuleDef_HEAD_INIT,
"example" ,
"example module doc string" ,
-1 ,
example_methods,
NULL ,
NULL ,
NULL ,
NULL
};

PyMODINIT_FUNC
PyInit_example(void )
{
return PyModule_Create(&examplemodule);
}

/// my setup.py
from distutils.core import setup, Extension

module1 = Extension('example', sources = ['example.c'])

setup (name = 'example', version = '1.0', description = 'This is a demo package', ext_modules = [module1])


// running
python setup.py build --compiler=mingw32
