Re: boost.python: ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function; bjam succesfully compiled and linked the code....

What is the file name of your module? I'm pretty sure that python
looks for an init method named after the filename of the module. In
your case, your module will need to be named 'SciDBRemotePy.so'
(linux) or 'SciDBRemotePy.pyd' (windows) to match the method you
passed to BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE.
