Hi all, I'm developing an application with mixed C++ and python.
I wonder how to do the following: let's assume "alib.la" is a python extention library installed in $(pyexecdir) which depends on the prefix given by the user. Up to now, I was substituting the absolute directories path at install time using "sed" on my scripts source files, so adding to Makefile.am: ascript.py: ascript_src.py sed -e "s#sys.append('pyexecdir')#sys.append('$(pyexecdir)')#g;s#datadir# $(datadir)/@PACKAGE@/#g" ascript_src.py > ascript.py substituting "pyexecdir" in order to allow "import alib" in the installed scripts and "datadir" to allow access to the installed data files (like images). This solution feels a bit clumsy because I need the file names "ascript_src.py" and "ascript.py" to deferenciate the original and the substituted files. I think I need an equivalent in python of the "config.h" header file, but where to install it? Or is there a standard way to achieve the substitutions? Thanks!
