"""distutils.command.build_lib Implements the Distutils 'build_lib' command, to build a C/C++ library that is included in the module distribution and needed by an extension module.""" # created (an empty husk) 1999/12/18, Greg Ward # fleshed out 2000/02/03-04 __rcsid__ = "$Id$" # XXX this module has *lots* of code ripped-off quite transparently from # build_ext.py -- not surprisingly really, as the work required to build # a static library from a collection of C source files is not really all # that different from what's required to build a shared object file from # a collection of C source files. Nevertheless, I haven't done the # necessary refactoring to account for the overlap in code between the # two modules, mainly because a number of subtle details changed in the # cut 'n paste.
