Hello

I have a project with a fairly involved build process where we generate
C++ via a python-clang-based code analyser, generates Python bindings
for the resulting C++ API with SWIG, and finally compile and link to
create various .so's and .py files.

I'd like to package things up with a setup.py script, but from what i
have read, it looks like distutils expects to compile, link and run
swig itself, using distutils.core.setup()'s ext_modules arg?

Is there a way to write setup.py so that it instead runs an external
command (e.g. 'cd foo && make all') when it is asked to build?

Thanks for any help,

- Jules
