Hello all
For my Summer of Code project, I'm adding Support Vector Machine code to SciPy. Underneath, I'm currently using libsvm. Thus far, I've been compiling libsvm as a shared library (DLL on Windows) using SCons and doing the wrapping with ctypes. Now, I would like to integrate my code into the SciPy build. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem as if numpy.distutils or distutils proper knows about building shared libraries. Building shared libraries across multiple platforms is tricky to say the least so I don't know if implementing this functionality again is something worth doing. The alternative -- never using shared libraries, doesn't seem very appealing either. Is anybody building shared libraries? Any code or comments?
Ed Schofield worked out a way:

You'll have some experimenting to do, but the basics are there.
