3 Provides the Extension class, used to describe C/C++ extension
4 modules in setup scripts."""
16 # This class is really only used by the "build_ext" command, so it might
17 # make sense to put it in distutils.command.build_ext. However, that
18 # module is already big enough, and I want to make this class a bit more
19 # complex to simplify some common cases ("foo" module in "foo.c") and do
20 # better error-checking ("foo.c" actually exists).
22 # Also, putting this in build_ext.py means every setup script would have to
23 # import that large-ish module (indirectly, through distutils.core) in
24 # order to do anything.
27 """Just a collection of attributes that describes an extension
28 module and everything needed to build it (hopefully in a portable
29 way, but there are hooks that let you be as unportable as you need).
33 the full name of the extension, including any packages -- ie.
34 *not* a filename or pathname, but Python dotted name
36 list of source filenames, relative to the distribution root
37 (where the setup script lives), in Unix form (slash-separated)
38 for portability. Source files may be C, C++, SWIG (.i),
39 platform-specific resource files, or whatever else is recognized
40 by the "build_ext" command as source for a Python extension.
41 include_dirs : [string]
42 list of directories to search for C/C++ header files (in Unix
44 define_macros : [(name : string, value : string|None)]
45 list of macros to define; each macro is defined using a 2-tuple,
46 where 'value' is either the string to define it to or None to
47 define it without a particular value (equivalent of "#define
48 FOO" in source or -DFOO on Unix C compiler command line)
49 undef_macros : [string]
50 list of macros to undefine explicitly
51 library_dirs : [string]
52 list of directories to search for C/C++ libraries at link time
54 list of library names (not filenames or paths) to link against
55 runtime_library_dirs : [string]
56 list of directories to search for C/C++ libraries at run time
57 (for shared extensions, this is when the extension is loaded)
58 extra_objects : [string]
59 list of extra files to link with (eg. object files not implied
60 by 'sources', static library that must be explicitly specified,
61 binary resource files, etc.)
62 extra_compile_args : [string]
63 any extra platform- and compiler-specific information to use
64 when compiling the source files in 'sources'. For platforms and
65 compilers where "command line" makes sense, this is typically a
66 list of command-line arguments, but for other platforms it could
68 extra_link_args : [string]
69 any extra platform- and compiler-specific information to use
70 when linking object files together to create the extension (or
71 to create a new static Python interpreter). Similar
72 interpretation as for 'extra_compile_args'.
73 export_symbols : [string]
74 list of symbols to be exported from a shared extension. Not
75 used on all platforms, and not generally necessary for Python
76 extensions, which typically export exactly one symbol: "init" +
79 any extra options to pass to SWIG if a source file has the .i
82 list of files that the extension depends on
84 extension language (i.e. "c", "c++", "objc"). Will be detected
85 from the source extensions if not provided.
