[Python-Dev] PEP 384 accepted (original) (raw)

Python’s setup.py has an example in Martin’s branch:

ext = Extension('xxlimited', ['xxlimited.c'], definemacros=[('PyLIMITEDAPI', 1)]) <http://codereview.appspot.com/3262043/patch/1/68> This is possible with today’s distutils. I don’t know if it’s enough to build stable-ABI-conformant extension modules.

It is. However, there is also the proposal that they use an ABI tag in the SO name; having that generated automatically would require a distutils change.

Regards, Martin
