I've had some luck with this sort of thing:
https://stromberg.dnsalias.org/svn/binary-tree-mod/trunk/setup.py

It just os.system's make, and then assumes everything is built thenceforth.

<br>
I have a project with a fairly involved build process where we generate<br>
C++ via a python-clang-based code analyser, generates Python bindings<br>
for the resulting C++ API with SWIG, and finally compile and link to<br>
create various .so&#39;s and .py files.<br>
<br>
I&#39;d like to package things up with a setup.py script, but from what i<b=
r>
have read, it looks like distutils expects to compile, link and run<br>
swig itself, using distutils.core.setup()&#39;s ext_modules arg?<br>
<br>
Is there a way to write setup.py so that it instead runs an external<br>
command (e.g. &#39;cd foo &amp;&amp; make all&#39;) when it is asked to bui=
ld?<br>
<br>
Thanks for any help,<br>
