| To my delight there is support for swig built into distutils. However a few problems exist with the support. - there is no way to specify any extra flags to the swig command (I need -I/usr/include -DHAVE_LONG_LONG); - swig generates two files, the XXX_wrap.c file which is turned into a _XXX.so file, and a XXX.py file. distutils only deals with the XXX_wrap.c file. I have no suggested fix for these problems, but problems they are. (Python from CVS HEAD on Fedora Core 2). |

| Logged In: YES user_id=43607 Part of the problem described here (the extra options that need to be given to swig) is solved by [ 1046644 ] improving distutils swig support (2). However, the other part is still a problem. |

| Logged In: YES user_id=43607 I just came up with a possible solution: In command/build.py change the order of the build.sub_commands list and put the entry for build_ext before build_py. The question is, does this cause a problem for anybody? |

| Logged In: YES user_id=11105 Haven't read the original problem (I don't use swig myself), but if changing the order of the sub_commands list than it can as well be done in the setup script by installing a custom build command. |

| Logged In: YES user_id=43607 Hmm, you can't really call that "decent swig support" then, can you? If this "solution" were properly documented (in a place one would notice when trying to create a setup.py to do swig!) then it wouldn't be too much of a problem, but I wouldn't know where that would be. So, if my change doesn't cause any detrimental effects I'd much rather see it fixed that way. |

| Logged In: YES user_id=11105 > Hmm, you can't really call that "decent swig support" then, can you? Of course not ;-) And I have setup scripts myself which would be more happy with this change, anyway, because they need the extensions built with build_ext to generate python modules. So, personally, I'm +1 on this change (but what does this count). |

| Distutils is now deprecated (see PEP 632) and all tagged issues are being closed. From now until removal, only release blocking issues will be considered for distutils. If this issue does not relate to distutils, please remove the component and reopen it. If you believe it still requires a fix, most likely the issue should be re-reported at https://github.com/pypa/setuptools |
