setuptools._distutils.sysconfig

Do any platform-specific customization of a CCompiler instance. Mainly needed on Unix, so we can plug in the information that varies across Unices and is stored in Python's Makefile.

Expand Makefile-style variables -- "${foo}" or "$(foo)" -- in 'string' according to 'vars' (a dictionary mapping variable names to values). Variables not present in 'vars' are silently expanded to the empty string. The variable values in 'vars' should not contain further variable expansions; if 'vars' is the output of 'parse_makefile()', you're fine. Returns a variable-expanded version of 's'.

Return full pathname of installed pyconfig.h file.

Return the value of a single variable using the dictionary returned by 'get_config_vars()'. Equivalent to get_config_vars().get(name)

With no arguments, return a dictionary of all configuration variables relevant for the current platform. Generally this includes everything needed to build extensions and install both pure modules and extensions. On Unix, this means every variable defined in Python's installed Makefile; on Windows it's a much smaller set. With arguments, return a list of values that result from looking up each argument in the configuration variable dictionary.

Return full pathname of installed Makefile from the Python build.

Return the directory containing installed Python header files. If 'plat_specific' is false (the default), this is the path to the non-platform-specific header files, i.e. Python.h and so on; otherwise, this is the path to platform-specific header files (namely pyconfig.h). If 'prefix' is supplied, use it instead of sys.base_prefix or sys.base_exec_prefix -- i.e., ignore 'plat_specific'.

Return the directory containing the Python library (standard or site additions). If 'plat_specific' is true, return the directory containing platform-specific modules, i.e. any module from a non-pure-Python module distribution; otherwise, return the platform-shared library directory. If 'standard_lib' is true, return the directory containing standard Python library modules; otherwise, return the directory for site-specific modules. If 'prefix' is supplied, use it instead of sys.base_prefix or sys.base_exec_prefix -- i.e., ignore 'plat_specific'.

Return a string containing the major and minor Python version, leaving off the patchlevel. Sample return values could be '1.5' or '2.2'.

Parse a config.h-style file. A dictionary containing name/value pairs is returned. If an optional dictionary is passed in as the second argument, it is used instead of a new dictionary.

Parse a Makefile-style file. A dictionary containing name/value pairs is returned. If an optional dictionary is passed in as the second argument, it is used instead of a new dictionary.
