This isn't a check suitable for inclusion in distutils.sysconfig,
though, because it's so liable to being fooled (consider a
Distutils-packaged module that comes with a configure script to build
some library). Right now I'm using a hacked version of sysconfig with several patches like this:
@@ -120,12 +121,16 @@
def get_config_h_filename():
"""Return full pathname of installed config.h file."""
inc_dir = get_python_inc(plat_specific=1)
+ # XXX
+ if 1: inc_dir = '.'
return os.path.join(inc_dir, "config.h")
One hackish approach would be to add a assume_build_directories() to
distutils.sysconfig, a little back door to be used by the setup.py
script that comes with Python, so the above would become 'if
build_time_flag: ...'. Anyone have a cleaner idea?
