Hi, I've been trying to get the python bridge (rpy2) to build for 64-bit R and python. The current stumbling block is that mingw can't use the python27.lib file that comes with CPython and so I need to generate libpython27.a.
When I use dlltool from rtools to do that however, I end up with a 32-bit file: >"G:\Rtools\gcc-4.6.3\i686-w64-mingw32\bin\dlltool" -e libpython27.a -d >python27.def python27.dll >objdump -f libpython27.a libpython27.a: file format pe-i386 More problematically, x86_64 is not listed as supported by objdump: Usage G:\Rtools\gcc-4.6.3\i686-w64-mingw32\bin\dlltool <option(s)> <object-file(s)> -m --machine <machine> Create as DLL for <machine>. [default: i386] possible <machine>: arm[_interwork], i386, mcore[-elf]{-le|-be}, ppc, thumb Am I doing it wrong?
