Hi,
I'm sorry to ask this, I guess I should know - but is there any way in
disutils or numpy distutils to check whether a compiler flag is valid
before doing extension building?
I'm thinking of something like this, to check whether the compiler can
handle '-fopenmp':
have_openmp = check_compiler_flag('-fopenmp')
flags = ['-fopenmp'] if have_openmp else []
ext = Extension('myext', ['myext.c'],
extra_compile_args = flags,
extra_link_args = flags])
I guess this would have to go somewhere in the main setup() call in
order to pick up custom compilers on the command line and such?
Cheers,
Matthew
