python - Compiler can't find Py_InitModule() .. is it deprecated and if so what should I use?

I am attempting to write a C extension for python. With the code (below) I get the compiler warning:

implicit declaration of function ‘Py_InitModule’

And it fails at run time with this error:

undefined symbol: Py_InitModule

I have spent literally hours searching for a solution with no joy. I have tried multiple minor changes to syntax, I even found a post suggesting the method has been deprecated. However I find no replacement.

Here is the code:

#include <Python.h>

//a func to calc fib numbers
int cFib(int n)
{
    if (n<2) return n;
    return cFib(n-1) + cFib(n-2);
}


static PyObject* fib(PyObject* self,PyObject* args)
{
    int n;
    if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args,"i",&n)) 
        return NULL;    
    return Py_BuildValue("i",cFib(n));
}

static PyMethodDef module_methods[] = {
    {"fib",(PyCFunction) fib, METH_VARARGS,"calculates the fibonachi number"},
    {NULL,NULL,0,NULL}
};

PyMODINIT_FUNC initcModPyDem(void)
{
    Py_InitModule("cModPyDem",module_methods,"a module");
}

If it helps here is my setup.py :

from distutils.core import setup, Extension

module = Extension('cModPyDem', sources=['cModPyDem.c'])
setup(name = 'packagename', 
    version='1.0',
    description = 'a test package',
    ext_modules = [module])

And the test code in test.py :

import cModPyDem

if __name__ == '__main__' :

    print(cModPyDem.fib(200))

Any help would be much, much appreciated.

The code you have would work fine in Python 2.x, but Py_InitModule is no longer used in Python 3.x. Nowadays, you create a PyModuleDef structure and then pass a reference to it to PyModule_Create.

The structure would look like:

static struct PyModuleDef cModPyDem =
{
    PyModuleDef_HEAD_INIT,
    "cModPyDem", /* name of module */
    "",          /* module documentation, may be NULL */
    -1,          /* size of per-interpreter state of the module, or -1 if the module keeps state in global variables. */
    module_methods
};

And then your PyMODINIT_FUNC function would look like:

PyMODINIT_FUNC PyInit_cModPyDem(void)
{
    return PyModule_Create(&cModPyDem);
}

Note that the name of the PyMODINIT_FUNC function must be of the form PyInit_<name> where <name> is the name of your module.

I think it would be worthwhile if you read Extending in the Python 3.x documentation. It has a detailed description of how to build extension modules in modern Python.
