[boost] boost.python error with DirectX

1 Oct 2007

      I am using boost.python to wrap C++ function which includes 
 directmusic libraries to simply play the midi, but lots of linkage 
 errors "error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol". I wonder if it is 
 possible to work with DirectX - directmusic libs.  Are there any ways 
 to wrap it?

******************************************compiliation 
 errors************** 

In C++, Inside "playmusic.cpp", it needs to include following 
 DirectMusic libs.  The link errors mainly related to directmusic 
 stuff. 

#include <dmusicc.h> 
 #include <dmusici.h> 
 #include <dmusicf.h> 

************* playmusic.cpp************************* 

#include <boost/python/class.hpp> 
 #include <boost/python/module.hpp> 
 #include <boost/python/def.hpp> 
 #include "boost/python/detail/wrap_python.hpp" 

//using namespace std; 
 #include <windows.h> 
 #include <dmusicc.h> 
 #include <dmusici.h> 
 #include <dmusicf.h> 

namespace { 
 //----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 // Defines, constants, and global variables 
 //----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 void StartPlay(); 

IDirectMusicLoader8*      g_pLoader         = NULL; 
 IDirectMusicPerformance8* g_pPerformance    = NULL; 
 IDirectMusicSegment8*     g_pSegment        = NULL; 
 FLOAT fTempo; 

void StartPlay() { 

    // Initialize COM 
     CoInitialize(NULL); 

    // Create loader object 
     CoCreateInstance( CLSID_DirectMusicLoader, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC, 
                       IID_IDirectMusicLoader8, (void**)&g_pLoader ); 

............. 
 ............. 
 namespace python = boost::python; 

BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(playmusic) 
 { 
     python::def("StartPlay", StartPlay); 

} 

*********** playmusic.cpp*************************** 
 The code in void StartPlay() inside "playmusic.cpp" can be compiled 
 and executed successfully before in C++, so I extract that part. 
 Any ideas?  Thanks so much for your help
