I am trying to make a customized install script for an extension module using the distutils.ccompiler class.
I want to embed an existing makefile for the C libraries into the Python setup script, but I am not sure what's the right way to do it... E.g., say I want to compile a project as: gcc -Ddef1 -c foo.c -o foo_def1.o gcc -Ddef2 -c foo.c -o foo_def2.o gcc foo_def1.o foo_def2.o -o myext_module.o How would I do that using distutils? It doesn't seem to be possible with the normal core.setup method, and distutils.ccompiler seems to be the best option, but I couldn't get it working... Hopefully someone the list can enlighten me.
