# =========================================================================== # http://www.nongnu.org/autoconf-archive/ax_python_devel.html # =========================================================================== # # SYNOPSIS # # AX_PYTHON_DEVEL([version]) # # DESCRIPTION # # Note: Defines as a precious variable "PYTHON_VERSION". Don't override it # in your configure.ac. # # This macro checks for Python and tries to get the include path to # 'Python.h'. It provides the $(PYTHON_CPPFLAGS) and $(PYTHON_LDFLAGS) # output variables. It also exports $(PYTHON_EXTRA_LIBS) and # $(PYTHON_EXTRA_LDFLAGS) for embedding Python in your code. # # You can search for some particular version of Python by passing a # parameter to this macro, for example ">= '2.3.1'", or "== '2.4'". Please # note that you *have* to pass also an operator along with the version to # match, and pay special attention to the single quotes surrounding the # version number. Don't use "PYTHON_VERSION" for this: that environment # variable is declared as precious and thus reserved for the end-user. # # This macro should work for all versions of Python >= 2.1.0. As an end # user, you can disable the check for the python version by setting the # PYTHON_NOVERSIONCHECK environment variable to something else than the # empty string. # # If you need to use this macro for an older Python version, please # contact the authors. We're always open for feedback. # # LICENSE # # Copyright (c) 2009 Sebastian Huber <sebastian-huber@web.de> # Copyright (c) 2009 Alan W.
