how to build a python extension with a shared object in osx10.11

I have installed libfoo.dylib into /usr/local/lib And my python extension's setup.py: from distutils.core import setup, Extension module1 = Extension('bar', libraries=['libfoo2.dylib', ], language="c++", extra_compile_args=['-v', ], sources=['main.cpp']) setup(name='PackageName', version='1.0', description='This is a demo package', ext_modules=[module1]) but it build failed for can not founding the libfoo2.dylib. Here is complie message: "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/lipo" -create -output build/temp.macosx-10.11-intel-2.7/main.o /var/folders/45/gz7ljrz94mdct3nvm9l5ftnr0000gp/T/main-684613.o /var/folders/45/gz7ljrz94mdct3nvm9l5ftnr0000gp/T/main-94fc36.o c++ -bundle -undefined dynamic_lookup -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -Wl,-F. build/temp.macosx-10.11-intel-2.7/main.o -L/usr/local/lib -llibfoo2.dylib -o build/lib.macosx-10.11-intel-2.7/bar.so ld: library not found for -llibfoo2.dylib clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) error: command 'c++' failed with exit status 1

Try libraries=["foo"] – this should cause it to pass "-lfoo" to the linker, and then the linker will convert that into "libfoo.dylib". On Jul 27, 2017 11:11 AM, "bin" <xiazhibin381@gmail.com> wrote:
