Hi all,
First of all, I am not sure if this is the correct forum for f2py-related questions, but since f2py is part of numpy I thought I'd start here. Please point me to the correct place if I am mistaken.
I am trying to port the build system for a python package (GitHub - PySCeS/pysces: The official PySCeS project source code repository.)
from numpy.distutils
to use scikit-build
because of the deprecation of
distutils
(the package contains 2 Fortran extension modules wrapped with
f2py
). To get to know the system I’ve started with a minimal example. I have been getting compile failures on Windows (on Linux and macOS everything works).
I have posted this on SO and on the Fortran discourse group but have not had any replies despite quite a number of reads. Perhaps anyone here can help out? Links to the other posts:
- python - f2py compile error with signature file on Windows - Stack Overflow
- Fortran language discourse group
Minimal example:
hi.f
SUBROUTINE HELLO()
PRINT*,"Hello from fortran"
END
hi.pyf
! -*- f90 -*-
! Note: the context of this file is case sensitive.
python module hi ! in
interface ! in :hi
subroutine hello ! in :hi:hi.f
end subroutine hello
end interface
end python module hi
! This file was auto-generated with f2py (version:1.23.2).

During compilation with python setup.py build
the build fails. In tracking it down I saw that ninja/cmake expands the full path of the source files and this is where it fails. To ensure that it is not a problem with the
skbuild
build system I verified that the failure can be reproduced on the command line using
f2py
on its own as follows - copy the Fortran files above to the same folder and then run in a command prompt:
(skbuild) Z:\Documents\Python\skbuild_test\simple\hello\shout>f2py.exe -m hi -c hi.pyf hi.f
(works and generates the .pyd
and .dll
files)
However, specifying the full path, fails:
(skbuild) Z:\Documents\Python\skbuild_test\simple\hello\shout>f2py.exe -m hi -c Z:/Documents/Python/skbuild_test/simple/hello/shout/hi.pyf Z:/Documents/Python/skbuild_test/simple/hello/shout/hi.f

The problem seems to be with the creating
C:Users
part leading to the malformed filename in the last line.
Specifying only the filename for hi.pyf
but the full path for
hi.f
does work strangely enough, but as soon as the full path for
hi.pyf
is specified it fails. As mentioned, on Linux and macOS all works fine.
NOTE:
I could of course skip the .pyf
file and then it works. However, the Fortran code I’m wrapping is F77 and needs to be redistributed in unmodified form due to licensing conditions, so I do need a custom
.pyf
file to integrate it into my Python module.
System
- Windows 10 64-bit
- MSVC 2022 build tools
- mingw 11.2.0.07112021
- python 3.10.6
- numpy 1.23.2
I have no idea what is going on here.
Thanks,
Johann
