How to specify header files in setup.py script for Python extension module?

Add MANIFEST. In file besides setup. Py with following contents.

Add MANIFEST. In file besides setup. Py with following contents: graft relative/path/to/directory/of/your/headers.

I don't want to install the headers; they should only be used as input for the compiler. Only the pyd file produced by the compiler should be installed. – user763305 Jul 14 at 7:28 No, whey won't be installed.

MANIFEST is not for installation, but for source distribution (setup. Py sdist). – Jacek Konieczny Jul 18 at 11:38 Great!

But I'm surprised that you need a MANIFEST at all to do something this simple. – user763305 Jul 18 at 12:17 Gah, I can't believe I forgot about MANIFEST.in. >.

If I remember right you should only need to specify the source files and it's supposed to find/use the headers. In the setup-tools manual, I see something about this I believe. "For example, if your extension requires header files in the include directory under your distribution root, use the include_dirs option" Extension('foo', 'foo.

C', include_dirs='include') docs.python.org/distutils/setupscript.ht....

I tried that. It did not find the headers. – user763305 Jul 9 at 8:25 I edited my question, see if it works.

– user763305 Jul 9 at 8:34 Have you tried the code in your questions example? It might work, at least I hope it will. :) I couldn't find anything else related to your problem in the manual; sorry.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
