One choice is whether to take options from distutils or to set them up independently. In my own scons tool to build python extensions, both are possible. The hard (or rather time consuming) work is to do everything else that distutils does related to the packaging. That's where scons/waf are more interesting than cmake IMO, because you can "easily" give up this task back to distutils, whereas it is inherently more difficult with cmake. cheers, David _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
