Thanks for the clarification. On most platforms other than Windows, Python expects compiled extension modules (usually written in C or C++) to have an extension of .so. This is true as well on macOS. Typically, extension modules are compiled using Python's Distutils, or one of its newer derivatives, which takes care of creating the proper extension module file name. If you are building an extension module with something else, you'll need to ensure that the shared library file name has the expected format. Note that PEP 3149, implemented in Python 3.2, extends the filename extension to include the Python version (although unversioned .so file names are still accepted for compatibility); see https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.2.html#pep-3149-abi-version-tagged-so-files for more information. $ python3 -c 'import sysconfig;print(sysconfig.get_config_var("EXT_SUFFIX"))' .cpython-39-darwin.so ---------- resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43898> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
