I have spent a good part of my day trying to run a Python file from c++. I have tried:

. . .
FILE * file = fopen ("file.py", "r");
PyRun_SimpleFile (file, "file.py");
. . .

This however just causes my application to crash. I am using python version 3.4.

Try

Py_Initialize();
 PyRun_SimpleFile (file, "file.py");
Py_Finalize();

Also possibly dumb, but make sure that you're doing #include <Python.h>
Now if I run the code it says File "file.py", line 1 ufffd/ufffd/ufffd/etc.
Well it is loading the python file but I'm getting that weird error
Perhaps post the code that prints, or the contents of the python file.
