Hi,
I'm have a shared library that I would like to distribute along with my python package, written in pure C. It requires the correct installation of other software at linktime, and at runtime. The package a ctypes wrapper for SUNDIALS (a mathematical C library).
You might want to take a look at OOF2. If includes a distutils command for building a shared library. I believe it tries to install the library to $prefix/lib which may not be what you want, but it might help you to find the right incantation to at least build the thing. http://www.ctcms.nist.gov/oof/oof2/index.html Will your code be open source? We have many requests for SUNDIALS wrappers on the scipy list, and it would be great to satisfy them. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco
