[Numpy-discussion] numpy.distutils and shared libraries

[Brian Granger]

Hi,

2 ?'s about numpy.distutils:

1.

I am using config.add_library to build a c++ library that I will link
into some Cython extensions.  This is working fine and generating a .a
library for me.  However, I need a shared library instead.  Is this
possible with numpy.distutils or will I need something like numscons?

2.

When calling add_library, what is the difference between the depends
and headers arguments?

Thanks!

Brian
