New submission from Lorenz Quack <d...@amberfisharts.com>: I'm not sure if this is a bug or some weird backward-compatible behaviour...
In "distutil.extension.read_setup_file" it checks for the "-C" switch but then appends "word" instead of "value" So if you pass "-C-Wall" it actually passes exactly that to the compiler instead of just "-Wall" In the file it says the switch is "only here 'cause makesetup has it!" so is this some behaviour the way it is for compability reasons or am I missing something? If this is indeed a bug I attached a patch ---------- assignee: tarek components: Distutils files: distutil_extension.patch keywords: patch messages: 88542 nosy: donlorenzo, tarek severity: normal status: open title: distutils.extension.read_setup_file misinterprets -C switch versions: Python 2.4, Python 2.5, Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.0, Python 3.1, Python 3.2 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file14117/distutil_extension.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6145> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
