Another tack...

Since you want to use python at the end anyway, how about this...

From what you have written it seems you have a library. Depending on what sort 
of library it is, you can perhaps use ctypes to call the library from python.

I do as little as possible with Windows, but I believe ctypes works under 
windows and can call DLLs.
