It works. Why Python would look for a linux extension only on MacOS I have no idea.
It's not really a Linux extension. It goes back to when shared libraries first appeared in BSD, from which large parts of MacOSX are derived, and MacOSX also recognises it as a valid extension for dynamically linked object files. I guess the Python developers didn't think it was worth making a distinction between different flavours of unix in this area. The mystery to me is why MacOSX introduced .dylib instead of sticking with .so. -- Greg _______________________________________________ cython-devel mailing list cython-devel@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cython-devel
